Love a well chosen word...there are some books I hate to finish. Your blocks are calm. When I whined once about getting low on green scraps, DH asked if I wanted him to cut a strip from every green in the regular fabric drawer. Ha. Ha. Hon. <br />BTW have you been to Baltimore's field?

So great to learn more about you through your sharing. And the St. Peter's floor blocks really look like stone flooring with the batiks. Lovely choices. At least you could use a rotary cutter for your blocks and not some kind of sawing through stone!

And if you run out of scraps, you need to be sewing faster to make more scraps, or you might need a trip to the quilt store. :-)sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15640327513033693188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331056529990165279.post-30003074953034775582015-06-13T09:56:10.128-04:002015-06-13T09:56:10.128-04:00Thanks for including me in the list of blogs . . ....Thanks for including me in the list of blogs . . . that's a high compliment to be in the same list as Wanda!<br /><br />Quiltdivajuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15593385265961892847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4331056529990165279.post-568953210037898752015-06-13T09:26:55.756-04:002015-06-13T09:26:55.756-04:00It is such a happy occasion to get to the bottom o...It is such a happy occasion to get to the bottom of the scrap bin, but also sad at the same time.

You are really an amazing person! I am so impressed with your being able to read in seven languages and having visited so many ballparks and being a volunteer literacy teacher. I take it you the books you have authored are academic? I like to read those "boring" books in order to keep my mind exercised. Well...as long as they aren't too hard a subject... physics and chemistry lose me.
