Once it is done, nobody knows whether it took a short time or a long time, right? ;) At least that is what I have to keep telling myself these days--LOL!

I have to stop and make myself relax.

I appreciate it. The blocks need to be 12.5 unfinished, so that they will finish at 12 inches. Simple blocks like a "Rail Fence" or a "Nine-Patch" are perfect for this. Other block ideas are "Ohio Star" or "Churn Dash". A good source of free quilt block patterns is here: http://www.myquiltgenie.com/index.php or here: http://www.quiltbus.com/Free-Quilt-Blocks.htm<br /><br />Your cross-stitch blocks are going to be beautiful.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296050573667055406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-39374372930835398502012-02-16T09:38:42.647-06:002012-02-16T09:38:42.647-06:00It sure will be nice when it is done....
