Shhh...It's A Secret!! Jodi from Pleasant Home NO PEEKING

She better not be peeking...if you see her looking, tell her to click on another blog!!
space
I know most of you know Jodi from Pleasant Home. She and I "met" through blogging in the summer of 2008. I sent her a little tutorial on English paper piecing and she helped me start my blog and as they say...the rest is history. Through this last year and a half of countless emails and fun package to open, she truly has become the BFIHNM (I know it's a long one), but she is the Best Friend I Have Never Met. Blogging is a wonderful way to "meet" people and I'm sure glad I met her.

Here's where the secret comes in. As most of you know who read her blog...she hasn't been feeling well. If you haven't read her story, please visit her blog and give her some much needed hugs! Months of pain and 2 surgeries have left her a little down. So let's cheer her up!!!
space
I was wondering if you would like to make a block or 2 and send them to me to put together into a quilt for her. I have an idea for a block, but just need to know about how many would like to join in.
space
Here are the specifics:
  • sign up on this post
  • I'll do a post for a simple block and/or blocks this week (I'm thinking scrappy-1 siggie block and 1 four patch from each person
  • I'll email you my address
  • I'll keep everyone updated through a post or through a group email

Thanks a bunch,

~Karen~

    I've been reading her suffering. It's hard to be going through pain with no answers. I'll be glad to add a block to your gift!
