She did it!

Well, she did it.  It took an incredible amount of patience on my part and ripping out a few seams on hers, but she made the block, took a picture and posted it.

Give Aways

I NEVER win anything that I enter.  EVER.  Last month I won the block lotto, so I thought I'd start entering the random give aways I find.

Here's the first one:

A layer cake, a quilt pattern and a skirt pattern.  Enter to win at A Little Bit Biased.

Second one:

The grand prize is this beautiful quilt.  Enter to win here: http://lilatuellerdesigns.blogspot.com/

Update on Miss Mae's Love Letters

The weather here has been wonderfully bright and sunny.  Which makes it hard for Miss Mae to stay inside and sew when the other kids are outside.  I pointed out to her that if she wanted to finish her block in time to enter it, she needed to work on it.

Here's where it's at.  Right now it's about 4 3/4" tall, so she needs to add borders to make it the right height.

She has done all the sewing and most of the pressing and trimming.

Tomorrow's a no school day, so hopefully she'll get it done.
