There
is only one small tear on the cover at the top left – you can barely see it in
this picture. As usual, I start leafing
from the back, and was surprised to see someone had left a Polaroid picture of
a quilt they had made based on one of the blocks. This is what one spread of the book looks
like:
The
book is chock full like this - incredible blocks! I love this book just from the first few
pages I have looked at! Then I finally
turned to the front of the book, turned the cover, and what do I see –
Signed? For only $6.46 plus shipping? I couldn’t believe it! But wait – there’s more! I turned to the title page-
Again? Really?
Unbelievable! Now, I’m sure there
are probably hundreds of signed copies of this book out there, but I can’t
believe I got one - I usually do not have THAT good of luck. There is next to zero chance that I would
ever meet her to get a book signed.
So
my day was made right there! I will sit
in bed tonight looking at all the beautiful blocks I would like to make! To heck with that “Visions of sugar plums”
stuff – I am going to have visions of beautiful quilt blocks tonight!
And
I should not forget to mention, the last little block of geese is finished-
Poor
little guys seem very insignificant after the book! Now it’s time to put it all together. I will do it in quarters and get started tomorrow.
Hope
you had as good a day as I did!
