Nina, your kitty is so sweet-looking.
Bev, hope your mom has her surgery soon and recovers well.
Today I saw Laurie Hird's Bible Sampler quilt book in the Keepsake Quilting catalog. I like the way she set the blocks with hourglasses in between so they appear to be framed and set on point. Now I'm thinking about doing that with my FW1930's quilt. It makes a bigger quilt, too. Has anyone seen that? I did a Bonnie Hunter quilt that had the alternate hourglass blocks-- Chunky Churndash. It's a neat effect.
