    Here are my first two blocks. I had such a difficult time choosing what fabrics to use I finally decided to make this a true scrappy sampler. I took all my scraps and divided them into three paper bags: lights, mediums, darks and am using whatever I pull from each bag. The challenge is going to be actually using whatever I pull b/c if I don't like it it's going to be hard to sew them next to one another! But I am determined to make this one a true scrappy!!! Wish me luck!!

    Good luck PJL with that method. I've heard of that in classes and such, but not sure I could discipline myself that much...so far so good! Nice blocks ladies!

    I don't know if this is where to post this or not. But-- I discovered that using thangles is quite a help. There are a lot of 1" finished HQT and they really help keep things square.
