Sorry, I won't be able to send the block in time; problems in the family, you know. Just the normal stuff when you got a toddler, and my DBIL is very ill, they don't know if he'll make it. So my DSIL can't babysit DD yadda, yadda, you know the whole rigmarole. Anyway, I'll post the thing a.s.a.p., OK?

We'll wait for it. Right now we're just 'pinning' them to her bedroom wall as she still spends quite a bit of time there with her foot up.
Take care of home first. Butterfly and DD
Oh, did you get many? I'm so curious - not many said they'd do a block, but I guess the motto here is 'Do good by stealth..'. ;-) I only had to ask those stupid newbie questions.
U.
I'm hoping to get one for the post this weekend. I'be been up to me oxters in customer projects recently!
First of all, no 'newbie' question is stupid. We've all been there. Since this is a 'public Hug" I will answer questions. Right now there are 4 blocks on the wall. Each is quite different from the one before. Each has brought a SMILE to her face. Butterfly
Oh, do tell, perhaps on alt.sewing?
U.
Well, yes, the silliest question is the one not asked and the resulting blunder. ;-) Ah, we had to do some 'loggin'; we've got a woodgas heating so we have to get wood, cut the trunks into 50cm pieces and then split them. Yesterday was a splitting day, and now my right hand hurts like hell. I hope I didn't ruin it. Mind you, we've got a machine for that, but the chunks were rather large and heavy, and I had to press the lever really hard to get the machine going. Anyway, gonna sit down to finishing the block tonight (knock on wood!) and then get it into the mail early next week.
