  6. This is so much fun. I made the week 3 block and have half of week 2 done. Plotted my designs on the day they were posted. I actually posted a picture of block 3 on the Flicker group, but I don't know where to go to link for the drawing. Help. Thanks for all your work. I used to love playing Tetris and this quilt-a-long is so much fun!
