    Your corners are lined up, it looks square, the colors look good together...

    all in all a block I'd be happy to have!

    Mistakes?!? Are we looking at the same block here?? It looks great! We are all our own worst critics, but please pat yourself on the back whenever you do a nice job (now would be good).

    :-D :-D

    F8 went out to Kysmommy today. That was my last one to send out so if you haven't received one from me yet, please let me know. Except for this one, they all should have landed by now.

    Finished block went out to Salmonsweet today. I'm not experienced with batiks - okay, I'll just admit it - I'm chicken. I have a stack of FQ's I bought last year and have done nothing with because I'm too afraid of messing up the colors. Kerstin, I hope you like your block. It was fun to make and gave me a bit more confidence in thinking I might be able to tackle some batiks down the road.

    If you'd like, I can post a picture of the block I sent to you.

    Crafts is talking about her block and mine that hasn't arrived yet, so no one is really confused. Mine is out there don't know what happened to me something is wrong but I got bug eyed yesterday making 11 blocks.

    Glad you had fun and managed to cut through the "uncuttable"!! :D:D Thank you for sharing, I'll treasure the block all the more knowing you went and experimented with it. And you know that I'll like it anyway because you made it for me and you made it with love... and I'm sure I'll LOVE it! Can't wait to see it now, can't wait can't wait.... :oops: :-D

    And btw I'm a bit relieved you posted because I've also been a bit nervous and hoping you like the block I made for you... I had a ton of fun making it (or rather, rushing to obey imperious shouts from fabrics...) and I love it but I don't know what anyone else will think... see what you think when it gets to you. :-)

    Robin your block is lovely, just look at it again with your heart open and you'll see. Wouldn't you like it if someone else made it and sent it to you? ;) :)

    Robin,
    Anything made with Love is beautiful.
    Why is it you are unhappy with the block?
    Hugs
    April
