The Rule Follower

 Between ennui and hysteria...tonight I have been pacing around the house.  Finally..I started a project.  I am in two groups that are doing "Block in a box. or block in a bag".  I am sorry that I cannot find a link for this.  Everyone chooses their fabric and one 12.5 inch block.  We put our fabric in a bag/box and pass it around.  Each person makes his chosen block out of the fabric of friends.  
In one group I am making my secret block 14 times, in another group, 8 times...so much fun!!

Tonight I chose my fabric for the IQ group...My Civil War fabric...and I made my block. 
No matter how much starch and perfect whatever...scant 1/4 inch...my blocks are off...so....
  I ate chocolate pudding:) again.... I know the cure!!

  2. Anything chocolate works as a cure for me! Worked on something all day yesterday and woke up this a.m. and determined the ripper was needed!

  3. We did something like that in my club...called it a pizza box swap. Dominos Pizza gave me the boxes and we passed them around each month at our club meetings. It was a fun project.

  4. I love pudding, haven't had any in ages.
    Remember....you have 1/4 wiggle room around each block. It's hard to swap perfect blocks. Don't sweat it.
