So.. yes, I've sewn. Danielle's quilt is growing, though not really growing on me. Not yet, anyway. That will pass, I'm sure. I don't hate it, but I don't love it yet either. A few more blocks to get that geese effect going and I'll be fine.

I think I'm going to eat my words, this summer, and make Nic's quilt a (gulp) Disappearing Nine-patch. I saw a picure of one today that wasn't so bad ;o) and (though I hate to say it) I don't think that any additional effort on my part will garner any additional appreciation on his, soooo...

Today, though, is not raining (it's been wet here) and something (grrrr), probably Corn Cut Worms, has chewed off my little corn plants at the ground. I need to see if they are savable, or if I need to replant. That's today's job.

Nice work on the quilt. Even if you don't like it, the soon to be owner will and I do.

If you are feeling a little uninspired by the disappearing nine-patch, consider the disappearing four-patch. I had never heard of it before, and it's pretty cool. Here's a link I found: http://sewwonderful.blogspot.com/2010/02/disappearing-4-patch-or-4-to-9-patch.html
