    This one was challenging too! I'm learning so much! Measure twice, cut once...my new mantra!

    Here is mine, I did end up hand sewing the blocks, piecing it on the machine was giving me fits, and since I did not have any wine in the house they got done by hand :lol:

    Thats lovely Amma, you've done a great job on the piecing and I love your autumn colours :P .

    Patrice: was thinking on similar lines myself (re 12" that is), that block was a real challange to piece at 9" I dread to think what an 8" would be like. I have one word for you "Tweezers" :lol:
