The Block That Never Ends

This is the block that never ends.
It goes on and on my friends.
Someone started making it not knowing what it was,
and they'll continue making it forever just because,


Hey, if it keeps running through my head why shouldn't it be running through yours? I'm a sharing and kind person. I wouldn't want to hog it for myself.

I did finally end the block though. I like it. It's about 34" wide give or take a smidge and I'm planning to use it as a wall hanging. Just need to add a sleeve to the back.

Now I'm on to my next project. Only I can't really tell you about it. I'm on a secret mission in cahoots with Agent 99 and a few others from my quilt guild. I can reveal, however, that our first assignment from the Chief was to swap 6.5" squares. We then choose a pattern, memorized it and then ate the paper to conceal the evidence.


Okay, maybe we didn't really eat the paper. We were supposed to but it didn't taste very good. You would think it they wanted you to eat it they would make it taste like chocolate or something. Anywhoo, I'll be working on this under the cover of darkness and not revealing it until our September meeting at mission control.

Now please excuse me, I have a call coming in on my shoe.

"Yes, Chief?"
