    I am using all fabrics from my stash with a few fat quarters I purchased to get free shipping when I purchased the book. I'v noticed that I didn't pay real close attention when sewing the smaller blocks together in #2, The colors should run from left top to right bottom and mine don't. Somehow I think it will all blend together in the end!
    I like the way you have put the blocks together...each one has it's own personality

    These blocks are great, I am trying to decide if I should attempt to make 2 but for heavens sake I'm having trouble with keeping up with one.
    On I'm tired just thinking about it, maybe tomorrow.
    Night for now,

    Ok, how about purpose driven?
    I guess iffin I didn't have school and two swaps to finish and a BOM, I might consider doing a second one. Heaven knows I have enough fabric to make a few more. But, I will stick to just one and admire those of you who are doing more than one. :)

    I am a new quilter, but I jumped on the FWS a month ago (on the yahoo groups) but now that I have discovered this board, I have started doing these in order - so here are my blocks 1 & 2:
