    I'll move the three I've alread done to this thread so they can all be together. This is so great. I have one block turned wrong, so I have to change it, but won't bother changing the picture. We'll see how many people find it.

    It didn't jump out at me until I was cutting some 2 1/2 in strips last night and it just punched me in the face. Btw, I got your templates today, thank you so much!!!! Now I can try some star and wing blocks too. Katie

    I had one just like that I did in a hotpad. It was in a pinwheel and the one that was wrong was very apparent but not til I had made the whole thing and had quilted it and was totally done! I was selling my stuff to Joette in Kalona at the time and I took it and showed it to her. She bought it anyway and it sold!!! Either they didn't know what they were looking at or they didn't care. It looked like a glaring error to me! The pattern was broken but someone took it anyway!! LOL

    Can you see the backwards HST?

    hehehe second row left...correct. But if you wouldn't have said anything, I wouldn't have noticed. I made a test block that I was going to use for a small table topper for a lamp in my sewing room. A friend came over and wanted me to make her one. I had two blocks that were backwards. She couldn't find it, so she took that one. I made another one, with no mistakes for myself. It's really easy to do a small block backwards. I just finish cutting out week 11 Bella. I thought I had it all done until I went to lay it out. I keep forgetting that the blocks have to reverse. ie: top row blocks 3 and 4, so had to make 4 more sets of block 4. But I am saving ALL my mistakes like that and see what I can come up with some day. Maybe nothing, maybe something super special. Going to cut out another block. I like to have 2 or 3 to sew together at one time.

    No these are not in the ebooks. These are in the Sampler Quilt Along. I post 3 quilt blocks each Sunday and you can pick and choose which ones you like. I offer free templates so you can make the quilt blocks in either a 6 1/2" size or 12 1/2" size.

    Here are the links:
