Holy smokes! I miss a few days and end up 12 pages behind. :cry: (Actually, before I posted this another 2 pages were added on. Evidently I'm reading too slowly.) :lol:

Blue - I just love your sashing!! Yummy!!

Bearpaw - I love the colors you've chosen. Those are beautiful!

Good job Mama on your first paper pieced block. :thumbup: Once you get the hang of it, it will get much easier.

I remember reading an article on the importance of keeping all those little snips of thread picked up off the floor just for that reasoning, to keep the dogs and especially cats from ingesting them. Evidently the pretty metallic ones and the rayon threads can be quite bad for their digestive tracts.

Do you have anyone who lives nearby that can give a quick paper piecing lesson? If you don't have a local guild or quilting group, perhaps someone from a LQS will help out. Usually they are very good about that.

What's worse, DH saw me working on the B/G/W blocks trying to finish them up and asked if it was for a big quilt project. Told him "no". He asked why? I said, cuz I don't have the software to make the entire quilt". He asked how much and I told him. He said "not bad" and I said"not on sale, either".

Tell me I didn't just slit my own throat?
Well, did you look appropriately sad as you said it? And don't forget to mope about the house and sigh from time to time. When he asks what's wrong, just tell him you are thinking of all the fun the rest of us are having doing ALL the blocks. :wink: :lol:
