OT its really ME!
Posting on DH's puter till mine is made operational again. It got fried
during a brown out. I hate this. Mikes puter is set up all wrong for me and it keeps insisting I am him. I promise, I'm me. While we were out of electricity and its usual diversions this morning I got the urge to piece so took some white and yellow nine patch blocks that were already made, put them together with some solid yellow and a center blue block, and appliqued some basic flower and leaf shapes to the resulting block, button hole stitched around them. Later, when the power was back on the block got machine quilted. Its a lovely, kind of old fashioned looking design and has triggered the desire to do more applique on Megs quilt. I had been seriously stuck as to what to do with the largish blocks of solid yellow going between the pieced blocks. Now I know!! Yay! The pillow will be for her bed and all the fabrics coordinate with the quilt. I wish I could share a picture of this charming block. I will post it later when my puter is fixed. Ok. I guess I could have posted this as on topic but it really is supposed to be a whine or whinge about my computer woes. G*d forbid I should ever post about anything truly quilty! ;-) Diana Curtis |

First you must prove you are who *you* claim to be, then I will happily
vouch for my own authenticity. :-) Diana "Paul & Suzie Beckwith" wrote in message ... Michael Curtis wrote: Thats what I get for posting to such a smart, alert group.
