[@chrisgreen4231]

Thanks, Brenda. It's a cool block with lots of "teaching moments" (of the sewing kind) for your viewers. I think the timing thing was just that your team (probably Albert) told Google to post it at 12 pm (noon) your time, rather than 12 am (midnight) -- a very easy mistake to make. (I had to look it up just now, to be sure!) And adding the Ta-Dah moment from last week's Blue Monday video ("Chevrons") added to the fun. 🙂 We still love you!!! ❣❣❣

I had a bad day today. It looks like you had some problems also, It's a cute block. It looks fast to cut and sew. It has not come into my mind what kind of quilt I could use this block in. Men, women, and children all use dumbbells. I keep a set on this desk and on my cutting table. I use them when I'm cutting and when I'm listening. Thank you.

This size of barbells (blue) is popular with quilters. Two pounds. Holding down long rulers when rotary cutting long strips for borders. Holding down patterns. Lifting them to improve muscle strength when maneuvering large quilts under the arm of sewing machine when quilting! 🚣
