    My package arrived yesterday. Today I spent time choosing fabric from my stash to take with me as we leave tomorrow for 2 months of "snowbirding" in the south. Great blocks sewn already!

    ArizonaKat your block is testing all my problem solving skills! I think I finally have it under control, but it gave me a run for my money.

    Kassaundra, what do you think about the magic 8 hst? I tried it last week and love it. My current project is a Carpenter's Square and it is so much faster cutting 8 at a time versus 2.

    ArizonaKat, your block is now finished. I was using a drunkard's path pattern I had made and used previously w/o any complications, so I don't know what happened this time, the blocks had to be trimmed extra making them just a touch to small, then how do you add such a tiny amount to a symmetrical pattern w/o adding 1/2 inch border around the edges???? So I added them in the block itself turning a flower to a medallion. I hope you like it.

    Thanks Kassaundra! I bought about 6 different fabrics from this line and have been wondering where to start with it, hopefully these BOOM blocks will be a jumping off point for me.
