OOOh Sheree, you're colors are rockin'!! Love the combo.
I'm adding pix of mine to the mix. I'm not doing the triangles because they aren't in my design. I thought about just doing them for the fun of it but decided to stick to the plan.
Best wishes to Elle & DH. We're thinking of you.

Also -
* my foundation paper just came from RaNae. Yeah!!!!
*I think H-5 needs to be mirrored (one out of the two bigger PP works and the other doesn't - it's not in the right place). I'm going to try re-printing it mirrored
*I'm going to post E-12 pics. I'm having a bitch of a time with this one. I re-did it last night and it's still not good. Maybe if you look you can tell me how to go about this one.
let me know how you like the PP paper.
try H5 again because i've never had to mirror that block. i made 18 of that block for the christmas swap and didn't have to mirror them.
but - i also didn't use 3 colors - this could be why you might need to mirror and i didn't.
the easy way to figure this out - is to print it out of regular paper and color the sections on the back the color of the fabric that you would place there.
then cut them up and tape them together to see if it looks correct. this way saves you some fabric.
E12 is a pain, post pics and i'll try to help but if you notice on my pic of E12 one point is off and i tried 3 times to get it right.

Sharee - I love your blocks, both week 1 and week 2! It looks amazing with three colors. How fun! Honestly, I think having 2 and 3 colors between the various blocks will add a lot of interest to your quilt.
retro - great job on your blocks!
