Let me try it again...

(I'm clearing my throat)...I"M SWIMMING!

I was able to fix all (20) of the 9-patches last night.  So that means, I will be able to work on sewing the center tonight...right after we decorate our cookie haunted house & then after that - I need to figure out where each block should go.  Well, at least it's Friday night and I can stay up as late as I want or at least as long as my brain will let me. : )
