Your blocking technique is amazing. I hope someday you do a post just on blocking because your pieces always come out perfectly blocked. I'm dying to know what kind of set-up you have for blocking. I saw the pic of it, but have no clue what the black pieces are and was quite spellbound.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335415338155220244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492395556720149397.post-14552023888035723272009-02-14T03:02:00.000-05:002009-02-14T03:02:00.000-05:00Absolutely gorgeous.
