The Gang’s All Here

I’ve had a busy summer with quilt shows and visitors, but I think I’m correct in saying that all the Vee Blocks have been received. Thanks to everyone who had made them for the great color choices and the perfect piecing. I hope to be able to do them justice when they go on my design wall this winter.

The only problem was that I did this two weeks ago, but with a crashed computer and nothing but a phone — even though it was purported to be a “smart” phone — I was unsuccessful in several tries at posting this information.
