    Here are my blocks for Week 48. My Temperance Tree is a little skeewampus and also mirror image. You can see on Tulip that I solved the mirror image problem.

    Now that it is finished, I wished I'd've used the plaid instead of the green square. I'd replace it, but it is the first seam sewn! I guess the galloping horse will apply here!

    The tulip is block 61 for me. I think I can. I think I can. I think I can. (chug, chug, chug)

    I like them QN. Your colors are so pretty. I found out when the blocks are a little "off" (not that I have any of those LOL) that you can block them and when you add the sashing and attach them to the next blocks they're pretty straight.
    Yes, you can----great job.

    Thanks Jan. I'll try the blocking on this piece. I think I *might* have a *few* others to block too! :roll:

    You do such beautiful work Quilting Nonnie!

    I found that I could pull on the blocks when I was putting on the sashing and they really stretched pretty well and fell into place (am I saying some of my blocks were wonky???? - well yes LOL). Also when the quilt is all together, the colors we did not like, kind of blend all together and you don't notice the individual blocks - just the quilt as a whole.
