When I sew for a few hours my blood sugar goes down. (It improves my mood and therefore my physical health.) You know, I do love the little (frustrating) pieces, though. I really haven't noticed that those are detrimental.<br />So there is some evidence for your investigation, CSI Beth. Some positive proof.<br />Hugs!Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08927552672720816359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881506707057153454.post-72845083141425032552012-01-24T07:52:06.855-08:002012-01-24T07:52:06.855-08:00I did know that.

So much more room to fudge, therefore less stress and faster finishes.<br /><br />Love the quilt, what is the fabric of the hearts and alternate blocks? is it that Minky stuff.
