Great job, I've tried this one off a picture w/o measurements it is not easy, you did an outstanding job.

Hope you like it, mjpEncinitas!

Thank you Marlena, the block you made me is gorgeous! In fact all of the blocks you have made are fantastic, especially the one that is a favorite of your future hubby.

Wonderful blocks, Marlena! You will need to make 'future hubby' a quilt of his own with his favorite block.

I have a picture to share! I finally got my local Friendship quilt all put together. It was QAYG... It is only lacking the binding, which will be the darker turquoise you see in some of the blocks. This is just like our Boom quilts, only local. No mailing! The blocks were made by my quilting buddies in my local group, and a couple by me.

I had to bend arms and talk people into participating in this! They were afraid of it!! Can you imagine? But then they all had fun and look how well they did...

Hmmm... colors came out really weird in that first photo. The yellowy looking blocks are actually lime greens.

Thank you Marleneab. It's a gorgeous block. Like almost all of the blocks you ladies have made for me, it's one I don't have the skill to make. Aren't I lucky to have you all.
