Blocks for Belgium . . .

First, the block that never travelled (remember, I cut it too close on one side, and too far on the other):

And here is the second square, which I air-mailed yesterday:

I hope it gets there before the deadline, but I was unwilling to pay over $62 Cdn so that would be guaranteed. In the end, I sent it regular air mail for under $10. I was a bit grumpy at the time, but decided that the main thing was its arrival, not  the exchange I had hoped to qualify for. I love to think of this bit of me joining hands, as it were, with bits from all over the world. I am looking forward to seeing posts of the quilt being constructed. If you want to check it out, too, go to Gipsy Quilt (there’s a link on my sidebar). If you don’t read French (mine is still quite poor), there are translation buttons near the top of the page.
