    Marcialee - the last three rows are gorgeous! I absolutely adore those fabrics! In the top two rows, the blues and the golden yellow with the blue are beautiful! As for what I would not suggest ( the CW fabric snotty )- Row 1 - #1 the brown dots. Row 2- the yellow and blue small print, Row 4 - #1 - the peachy fabric with the yellow and darker dots. CW fabrics tend to be more muted.

    I told myself, "no more swaps until I get some of my other swap blocks quilted". I've been trying to resist this swap but I love civil war fabrics. I give up. Sign me up.

    Looks really good to me. If you have not done so yet and you want to, you can try and spray a little starch and press the seams open that can be pressed open. But I think they are fine as they are.

    Marcialee, your blocks are great! No reason to be unhappy with the double T!
