Congratulations!
I might make it yet as it is the 30th here. I had already done the patchwork by mistake for April and forgot about it so this morning I thought I still had to do that. I need to trim my sewing block, stitch on the tiny sewing blocks and sew it to the top of my best friends block, attach the patchwork to the top and then the strip which I may have to do really quick but I think I can make it.
