Cheating??? :lol: For those of us who are new to quilting and applique, it would still be a challenge and a stretch for us to do it either way :lol:
Now I just need to decide which way to choose..... :?

About a couple months ago, just because I had never tried to do the drunkards path block, I cut one out and stitched it together.... all my fears of that block disappeared....its really not as difficult as it seems to be! Give it a try!!! :D

I love these block choices!!

i made the dogs kick the pot habit. they needed a new hobby.

since the loss of each addiction seems to lead to another ...

first i'll get them off the booze. THEN maybe i can convince them to quilt.

Well, I cut out all the pieces last night. Tonight, I pin! I layed mine out on my cutting board, and it will look beautiful when finished. I only used two colors tho.

Ok you convinced me :lol: . I'll try one unit, bearing in mind my blocks are 9" so that would make my drunkards path unit 2 1/4" :shock: So I'll try one and if it gets too frustrating :XD: I'll do it the other way :lol:
