And this weekend my Middle Young Son, Michael received his Master's Degree in Finance - here is a pic
Here he was on the stage when they "Hooded" him... so proud!! Hugs, Mary

  1. Congrats to your son! Interesting block. I see so many appliquers prep their whole block this way, never seems to work for me.

    1. Thanks Carla.. yes I prep my blocks first w pins then baste pieces down w Hugh stitches..it makes it easier for me to see where everything is going to go and audition different fabrics at the same time...I really enjoy this part of the process...its the only way I know
