    Last but not least, Goldendog55's block. I love your delicate applique stitches on the flowers! Awesome!

    Goldendog, I just bought this book from barnes and Nobles for $24.95 and it really does have 5500 different quilt blocks. I really like and I have put alot of the patterns into EQ6. Sorry I can't turn the pic I don't know how but it is by Mary Malone

    Believe it or not the book is called "200 quilt blocks to mix and match"! Davina Thomas is the "author". I bought the book because there are photographs in the book and the blocks that were in it weren't very good at all! Matching corners is my thing and this didn't have it so I felt I could do them better! :) It is probably my most used book at the moment!

    I love my sewing machine- will do almost anything I tell it to-even very tiny applique!

    I check out the 5500 quilt block book from the library quite often. It's a good reference.

    I'll have to look at this other one, too.

    KarenBarnes,
    A friend gave me teh 200 quilt blocks book as a gift last Sept on my B-day. I haven't used it yet because I've been lazy to do the math to strech the blocks. Can we really just do x2 and get the instructions right? Are you sure?

    Got two new blocks today, one from leakus(and my heart block back), and one from Bibliostone. they are wonderful. will post soon along with karen barnes.

    Will try and show how my whole quilt is looking. You guys are so awesome, I have a gorgeous quilt in the making. Thank you.

    I am so in love with this quilt, all the blocks are so different, Look at Karen and bibliostones blocks, they are the same pattern, but they look so different, and Leakus's is broidery perse(sp?)

    See fryguymoore! my different block in kwiltcrazy's layout?
    What can I do!
    I hope somebody else uses black in the background so it doesn't pop up as much.

    Kwiltcrazy, I am glad you liked it.

    x2 minus the 1/2 inch seam. So far it has worked! Of course, math in NOT my strong suit so I won't promise! :)
