    I am so excited... used my Christmas money and indulged. I purchased Electric Quilt 8 as well as the Dresden Accuquilt Go die, the 3-inch ABCs die, and the 12 inch cube set. I will be ready when the material gets here.

    Okay ladies this is going to be unadulterated bragging!!!!!! My posts of my blocks are almost always posted w/ just the happiness of sharing, but this one, matched stripes on a Y seam x 2. I tried bragging to my husband, but he just didn't understand the accomplishment.

    That twisted block is amazing, Kass! Hope you might make one for me one day if I have stripes.

    Very ingenious block Kass. I love watching your thought processes.
    Good luck with the EQ8 and dresden dies Hav4boys.
    I got a Dresden book last year and I will be making a lot of Dresdens too.
    My husband looked at Jaba's fabric and told me you should make the palm tree block you made last boom with this fabric. I just laughed and told him, Jaba's already got one of those.

    WOWSERS! You have got the science of this down, girl!

    And I would probably recognize that husband response immediately, having seen it here a hundred times or more!

    To quote Addison DeWitt from one of my all-time favorite movies, All About Eve:

    I think the time has come to shed some of your humility. It is just as false not to blow your horn at all as it is to blow it too loudly.

    This block deserves some good old horn blowing! Great job, Kassaundra!

    Thanks guys. My FB blew smooth up this afternoon and is still blowing up. I posted a pic of this ribbon block and they are going crazy over it, I have posted pics of much more complicated blocks and never had a response like this one. This response is bigger then my Abby Road block.
