And.....once again, I am behind on my retreat projects!! Happens every year!!!

Yes, me too!  I need to get my lizard project quilted and my fat qtr challenge made.    I guess I need to work on them in the early morning hours when it's quiet.

Wouldn't you know it, Zahn dragged them in there to show them something.  Dang! Doesn't it figure.

Oh No, well it probably wasn't as bad as mine at it's worst.  :).  Don't you know creative people do leave messes.  

Sorry you have been sick and I'm glad to hear you are on the mend, albeit slow.  Good to see you here.  I haven't been here much either, this year has been a busy chaotic one.  

Announcing the Lotto Block ---***--- (Apologies for my absence - no internet at home)

String Block

1. fabric foundation - use cheapest - thinnest - muslin (even poly blend)

2. Size of block - raw size 9 1/2 inches

3. Diagonally sew strips.

4. Center stripe is Kona Prussian color # 454 - 2 1/2 inch wide strip sewn from upper left to lower right corner.

5. One side - use dark strips - other side use light strips - Any width strips are acceptable - wonky adds interest. Trim roughly to size - any where from 9 1/2 inch to 10 inch sq. is just fine.

6. Maximum number of blocks eligible for drawing tickets - 15.

eh...I ordered a yard from Amazon...came out to 7.48 ....not TOO bad for a yard of fabric!

Whatever you do, don't get this awful stomach flu.  I've had it for 3 days and it's no darn fun!  I think I'm finally getting to the end of it - yea!

February is getting nearly impossible for me to be away from work.  Perhaps as time gets closer things may change, but for now I don't think I'll be able to go again this year.  Sure miss you guys.

Oh No!  Say it isn't so!?!?!?
