Hopefully, I'll get in soon enough to get the first block. If not, 99 cents is not going to break the bank. Now, I need to check my email and see if it's come in yet.

Hi Leta,
If you joined after a Monday, you will need to write to Debbie and ask her to send you the email for that week. She sends them out early on Monday mornings and will not automatically 'catch you up'. You have to ask.

Mary I used some questionable civil war prints for my neutral ones using some scrap pieces that were given to me. Beautiful block #2.

I did the summer sew along in 30's prints and it turned out Great.

I think anything you use will be good. Use what you have this pattern is good for using scraps and odds and ends up.

Ok here is my block #2 had some issues but it I'd good enough for me now. Also finished alternate blocks as well.

All of your blocks are so nice. I haven't started making the blocks yet as I have one more block from the first BOW. This is really a fun BOW to do. Sometimes life gets in the way and I get really behind but hope to catch up soon but sure do enjoy see everyone's pretty blocks.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]581327[/ATTACH] # 1 and #2. Just picked up my kitty from the vet. She has been peeing on one bed. It better not be behavioral. Hopefully some that can be fixed with meds.
This kitty is the avatar.

Marcia, I just took my cat to the vet yesterday and am now treating a UTI she has. She also got subcutaneous fluids to flush out her kidneys, to help with kidney probs of age. The tests, exam, meds and her new flea medicine... $361.99!!! Hope you came out better than we did, Marcia! And I have to give her antibiotics in liquid form every day for 20 days! Pets! But we love them...

You can keep her off that bed by putting something 'crinkly' on top of it, then covering with a light sheet. When she jumps up on it she will hear the crinkling and jump off. Most cats don't like that sound. I use a big plastic wrap from a roll of batting, and my cat won't go on the bed.

Very pretty blocks!
