Block 21 was nice and easy, I've finishing quilting it now. I decided to Quilt As You Go for this quilt. The hand quilting is quite enjoyable when you are only doing one block at a time.
My Windows XP home computer did not survive long after the customer support for XP finished. I have been using my laptop while I was waiting a brand new computer to be installed at work, so the work computer could be retired to home. Now when I need a photo to upload I need to think, where is it? Is it on the old computer, the backup external hard drive, the laptop, the new computer or still in the camera? It's in the camera, good, now where is my photo software......?
Hopefully you can find some photos to share.

CCCQ A Stitch in Time
Block 20 of the Chester Criswell quilt was a little challenging. I shared how I made the block in the post 20 Blocks / 100 Posts.
Miriam of Yellow Roses has also shared how she made this block. Miriam's blog has a lot of hints for needleturn applique.
Nancy at the Tattered Garden used two pieces of fabric and cut alternate rings from each piece. This gave Nancy more fabric to turn under. It also means you could use two different fabrics and make a striped piecrust block. Has anyone tried more than one fabric?
Block 21 is on the website now. It's much easier to make - Quilting at the Farm Chris has finished it already!
