Thank you to everyone for your kind words. This is why I decided to go ahead with the PC sew along. Everyone is so encouraging, no quilt police here just a wonderful group of ladies all willing to cheer us on. just like the FWS

Good tute, Bev.....Thank You. I have saved the site....not sure if I understand the concept of the fabric use......I am referring to the sizes to cut or use. I now use the Carol Doak method so there is very little waste. I cut my fabric "prior" to sewing and line up the edges......how do you determine how large a piece you need for each piece....especially if you are lining up pattern? (sorry to be so dense)

Helloooooo Everyone ... NO I haven't abandoned ship! Just have had a busy week!
I knew Honchey was out of the wagon and on the trail, so knew you would be well taken care of by the Momma Bear!
Lovely fabric there Honchey!!!! *giggles*
And while yours is more muted than JanRN's ... I still think it's a perfect combo of fabrics.
JanRN and Honchey ... I'm honoured!!
DublB ... I have times like that when all seems to keep going wrong! That usually tells me to STOP and walk away til I'm more "with it". It's going to be a beautiful block ... and thankfully that wrong seam you have caught before you had more seams sewn!
As for that 10% ... I am 1% done!
This weekend, FOR SURE, I'll be back on the PC trail and will get this week's blocks done ... if nothing else!
And hopefully will stick with the posse from here on, and catch up on the earlier ones before long.
I'll catch up with y'all (and all the posts/threads in the meantime) later tonight or tomorrow ...
Good News though, one project is in the bag! And now I have a simple deadline today.

JanRn, When I saw the geese in your block I said to myself "I also have that fabric and it's a perfect fit for the block. I hope you don't mind. Well, the fabric I chose to go with it looked fine until It was all put together...It came out wonky and the colors look washed out...not enough definition between them. it is what it is and I might end up changing it. I might even try to do it without the pping... I'm not really doing too well with that lately.
Here is my second block for this week. Honchey

Anael your complementing colors match the boot square so well.
AECasa what lovely color combinations. I am a big fan of blue and yellow and your Best of All block is just fantastic.
On another note I was web surfing today and this looks like a fun block for anyone

And one for the Canadians

Sorry, no Brazilian flag.
