Quote:
Awwww, no problem. Glad to be of some use. haha

I'm cutting my fabric today, not so scared, now that I know I have extra if I mess up too badl...Thanks Scrambled! Yer the bestest!

Maybe I can talk the girls into doing my cleaning today? They say they want to...
 
Thanks you all for the kind words. I am so glad I am back on here to. I think about 3 or 4 pages went by really quick on me.

Skand---you cut that fabric to your little hearts content and tell the girls if they clean the house for you that you will take them for a "Happy Meal". It sure works for me

Chevy---I'll get some pics up soon of the blocks you set and the one's I have done, not sure yet if I will use those or if I'll send them to someone (not yours Chevy).

Zoo---you keep those puppies far, far away from me

Anyways, I had a jar in my pantry that had lost its hold, so this morning I have been searching for a sticky jar

Hey Scrambled glad to see ya got in on the block swap sure hope a few more of ya drop in and join. Amy doesn't think more than 20 will join and if ya join now and so a block a day ya will be done in no time. LOL. Can you say enable much.

Enabling? Nah, none of us would do that, lol!!! Yeah, a few more need to join the big swap so I'll know exactly how much more than I can chew that I actually bit off, lol!!!!! She did extend the deadline through March so I should be good. I'm glad I already have my two here done anyway. I'll try to get those all cut out this weekend, I found a pattern called Card Trick that I really like ...think that might be my next square here and maybe all of my sqaures in that swap.. http://mccallsquilting.com/qb/pattern_902//index.html
 
Scrambled---I really like that pattern. Thanks for posting it.


Hope all you other ladies are doing fine with the cutting and sewing of the blocks.
 
Here is one of the finished blocks that I was working on...The pattern is Jacob's Ladder

hehehe.. I've gotten the new fabric cut... UHHHHMMMMM.. question
Since the last ones seem to have shrunk on me from the cutting table to the sewing area, I cut these ones about 1/4 to a half inch bigger, Do I need to trim them better before I sew, or can I just leave them be and have them look okay?
Gosh, it sure is good to hear that if I need to mass produce a quality quilt, I know just who to run to with cash. lol I got $50,, who's gonna help me make it and let me take all the credit?
