I got the first twelve done!!!!!
I am on a roll so I think I am going to go for it and make a second set!!!
That way I get more of these amazing squares in exchange!!!
The only problem I have is a whiny husband! He got ... ready for it... Chicken Pox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I have him home with me this week! Lucky lucky me!!! So much for getting any more sewing done right away!
I will post a picture of the first set later tonight. I am being called!

and how long ago was that, dojo? :wink: Why did I think you were a young twenty something?
I had shingles a couple of years ago and I was in agony for three days. A week or so later the rash came out and it didn't bother me at all.
A full blown case of chicken pox must be horrible in an adult. I hope he feels better soon. Men can be such babies when they are sick.
I too have finished my first set of shoo fly blocks!
I'm going to start the second block I chose and see how I like it. I don't like the way it was done on quilters cache only because it needs to be in a set of the same blocks to appreciate the pattern. It's not what I call a stand alone block. I have an idea that I think will work out great so I'll give it a try tonight.
Tomorrow I must do some yard work so minimal sewing I hope! :D
After the yard work is done I will get back to sewing.

Skeat, that is a really pretty block! Hope I get one of those!
Here is the start of my 2nd set...its called Betty's Delight. I don't think Betty would be too thrilled with one of my points though. I'm not sure I can actually get it much better. You put the block together almost all on the BIAS!! I like the block though.
Should I go ahead and just ignore the one point and try to do better on the others...or do ya'll think I should take it apart and do it over. Usually if I take apart triangles...I'm better off just to throw them away... So....what do ya'll think?
BTW...they are white on white..don't know why the color showed up like that.
