    Talking And the little lady is worried about how she'll lay her blocks

    Dd is almost finished her Nine patch quilt and I told her I'd teach her how to make the Log cabin block once she was finished. I'll do a tutorial for here at the same time.

    So she comes downstairs with one of my quilting books and is wondering "how will I lay my blocks". I mean their are so many different ways to do the Log cabin and to lay them out, but she hasn't even started it yet!!!!!

    So mean mom that I am - I just gave her another book just on Log cabin quilts!!! She is now going up the stairs moaning and groaning, wondering how on earth is she going to lay out her blocks.

    Give me a break girl - she hasn't even got her material picked out!!!! I can just imagine what thats going to be like!!!

    I'm sure this little lady had dreams - she is up in her room at 9:30 a.m. still groaning about how she is going to lay them out. Too funny!!

    Michelle, don't you just love it though when your kids work along side of you in a craft!!

    Absolutely CJ--nothing excites me more than to see them enjoying the same things I do
