    Trust me....Sue doesn't "do" naughty (I have to behave around her!) and she is showing how to do it in her instructions. Actually it's pretty slick, and no tools are needed!

        Wow, the pictures are wonderful. I have only 2 more blocks on the '08' hand applique one and am again working on the '09'. I had to put all away for the summer big project for my friend's exhibit in Houston then family things like grandson going to college and illnesses made me be a nurse again. This month on the 20th I turned some of my porcelain doll painting room into another sewing area for my new Bernina 830 and now am learning the machine and v6 software and have started back on the "09" one again. Had sooo much rain this month around here a floor to ceiling crack developed in my basement room where my library and fabrics are. So everything on the hanging shelving and anything close to that area had to come out to repair it. This month looks much better so here I am back to piecing and looking at all you have done. I have only made 2 pieced quilts and finished one . I am putting the shashing on the 2nd one now so this quilt for "09" is really quite a challenge. I usually make embroidered or machine appliqued ones and the '08" one appliquing by hand is also a first. This site is so inspiring and it has me pretty excited to see all coming together. Thanks, MA

          I too have no regrets..just love my quilt At time I thought I was going to be sick..if I had to do one more half-square triangle, but I purserved. I kept up with each month's blocks as I know from past history, if I get behind, that's end for me..it will never get finished.

          I looked at the 2010 BOM and seen the stars on the pieced one, and I was kind of disappointed..I don't want to look at another star block!!..as for the applique, I haven't learnt that yet, so I know I will never finish that one..so I'd better leave it alone for 2010..it breaks my heart!

            Well I just spent a good part of the afternoon squaring up the little blocks for July's blocks. It took me until last month's to figure out that they went together better if I squared up the HSTs and the flying geese. Tomorrow I am planning on starting to sew them together. Then I only have two months more to go of those stars. Of course I haven't done any of the sawtooth stars yet either. I think this is going to be a 2 year BOM.
