I love that I can make blocks and stretch my skills and then see someone else make it beautiful. This is my first month to be a lead quilter and I am getting very different blocks, which normally would worry me, but it is utterly thrilling. I want to join at least one more!!!Heidi Grohshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00037618884442987553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524960354656106962.post-61311452004406677632012-07-25T17:39:30.389+01:002012-07-25T17:39:30.389+01:00thanks for this post i think i would like to be in...thanks for this post i think i would like to be in a bee ...............just got to find one !!!<br />lovely blocks :))lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02839276827659677722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524960354656106962.post-53654519935176284472012-07-23T11:11:16.407+01:002012-07-23T11:11:16.407+01:00Susan those blocks are stunning - you are right to...Susan those blocks are stunning - you are right to be so pleased with them.
