Everyone's blocks are looking absolutely great! I was particularly excited to see Lesley's, because she and I are doing the same colour theme: batiks and muslin. Our quilts are going to look totally different, though, because we're choosing different colours for each block. What fun!

Here is an idea to keep posting more organized. There will always be someone (hopefully I being one ) starting the next week before the current week in finished. Klue would this be workable; have a post for the current week that shows pics and questions, comments, etc and then at the same time have another post for the next wk, not necessarily pics of your blocks, that way you won't feel pressured into having to post 2 wks at the same time,but a post where those who are working ahead can discuss the next wks blocks.

I finally finished BR5 using the paper piece units redrafted by Klue and BlueChicken. I have been 2 days on this seemingly simple triangle. I am a little disappointed in myself but that will pass. I'm drained so will start the other 3 blocks that go with this triangle later.
Can you imagine how proficient we'll be by the end.
