Nice block, Janice... glad you got to make a block! I love that red print fabric too. Even more beautiful in person...

I hope you'll like it, NK. The fabric is a light mottled cream, the reverse of a darker one that just looked a bit too dark.

Pretty block, Janice. Sure hope things work out so that you can join us next time.

Wow... you made that block SING! I see the 4 tulips and I love it! You got the ribbons in there really well, too. It wasn't an easy piece to work with. Thank you so much for the beautiful block!

I like your addition to LJDugas' block too. Those corners really polish it off.

You are amazing, GramE.

Took three days to get that middle seam to match! Don't even think about quilting over that center unless you trim it down some. I had to hand baste it, then sew it together. Another chapter in my battle with Jinny Beyer's templates.

Oh my goodness. I count TWELVE seams there and you've got them matching up like a champ! Just amazing. I will not quilt over that center!
