    Default And I thought I was a genius!

    Hi Today I woke up thinking I could modify Jenny's heart block into a shamrock for St. Patrick's Day. I played around with it and sure enough, came up with a pretty cute shamrock block. After reaching back several times to try to pat myself on the back for being such a genius, I googled "Shamrock Quiilt Block" and found my genius idea had already been invented and shared, and is a lot fancier than mine. But the ones I made are cute, simple and got me in the mood for next month's St. Patty's Day! Quilt top for March is made, needs sashing and backing, quilting and binding--whew, thank heaven I have almost 2 more weeks before March starts!

    See my blog www.soooowht.blogspot.com for pictures and directions if you want to make a simple shamrock. I posted a link in my blog to the other website where I found a much more complicated shamrock, with some really great directions and diagrams.

    Genius status--fail! Just re-invented the wheel!
