We heard the sad fate of two of our friends in Henderson's Scouts, the Yankees hung them near Moscow, - Mr. Bonner and Lt. McConnell. Oh! This horrible, horrible war- our poor boys are looking for a battle every day and expect to go in under the black Flag...(quotes from Civil War Diary Quilt book written by R. Youngs)
I'll try to be back soon...
but now I must TRY to go to sleep...

Very nice! I'm going to Oslo tonight, visiting Hanne, so my block must wait. Have a nice week!
I love the block. I know it is hard to sew in the Australian heat somedays. At the moment we are having nice cold days, great for sewing. (and sleeping).
