I finished a couple of projects this week, one of them a Marty Bell. I even framed it myself. I put the photos on my blog:

Its beautiful! I love your other Marty Bells too. Alas, my Miss Hathaways Garden is still only half finished after 10+ years. I'm hoping that things
will quiet down soon so I can get back to my stitching and quilting.

Marian----I'll try again to post. Last night I tried 3 times, and it just wouldn't go through. I love Morning's Glow. Someone on the old board
did all four of the MB ovals, but I don't remember who at the moment. What a grouping that must make. I've only done The Ginger Cottage. Helen

Was it Audrey you are thinking of Helen?

Does anyone know anything about the dear elderly lady from Texas that used to write on this board? Helen, you may remember her. Or maybe Fern.

Coral-----I think Audrey did one or two of the MB ovals, but I'm not sure if she did the whole set. I haven't heard from Audrey in a long time, and
Fern and I used to correspond with her regularly. I have a feeling she might be ill. I was thinking maybe it was Barb from Ohio who might have done some
too.....or was it Brenda from Michigan?

I often lament about our lovely old board ...it was so pretty and seemed more personal...Does Jim ever come here ? I remember when Mildred used to post once in
a while ...I was in awe of her talent when she once decribed to us how she hand charted a MB design:) I wonder how she is ????
