    Okay, here are my February blocks since I joined at the last minute. They should all be received today. After seeing all the elaborate blocks, I see I am going to have to "up" my quilting skills. I have always created crazy quilts so blocks are a new concept but I am loving them. Now to work on my March quilt block with a "Spring" theme. I am going to try a pattern.[ATTACH=CONFIG]401715[/ATTACH]

    HAV, I like that 1st one (pink & black) it looks like it's 3 dimensional, like it's folded over. Very cool!

    Shirley, pretty block. I like the pattern. Is it regular piecing? Paper piecing?

    Thank you, Judith - it is a paper-pieced block from "Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks - Volume 1", called Twirling Star. Very fun to see come together.
    The train block that hav4boys pictured above is the one I received - it's a great block for the childrens quilt(s) - great colors and theme. Thank you.

    Thanks for the block info Shirley. I will have to try it out. I agree with you. I love the train block. The fabric is unique and some lucky little boy is going to love it.
