Penny, you made me cry...your post was so "real" and so emotional...you indeed are blessed, as we all are to have these on line friends! Cant wait to see the pictures!
I played with my templates some today. My one question to blue or anyone...are ALL the blocks 12" finished? How did you make them 12 1/2 for the swap? scant 1/4" seam? My granddaughter was looking at the booklet that came with set 1 and of course wants the Calypso one...maybe in 10 or so years!! LOL Heres a picture of one I made out of scraps.
