This was a good excuse to try out the Disappearing 4 Patch. I don&#8217;t remember if I thought the Disappearing 9 patch was fiddly. I thought the D4P was kind of fiddly. I think I like the D9P a little better, but I am always up for learning a new blocks and I think the D4P has some interesting design possibilities. And I can make blocks until the cows come home. I don&#8217;t need to like them much to make them. You&#8217;ll have to wait for photos as I forgot to take them!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15719\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15719\" style=\"width: 170px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/PICT2841sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-15719\" title=\"Letter Journal Cover\" src=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/PICT2841sm-248x300.jpg\" alt=\"Letter Journal Cover\" width=\"170\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/PICT2841sm-248x300.jpg 248w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/PICT2841sm-847x1024.jpg 847w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/PICT2841sm.jpg 981w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 170px) 85vw, 170px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-15719\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Letter Journal Cover<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I wrote really small all week and made the last few pages of my journal last.
