My version of Sarah's Block

Attempting to post as small pic, cross your fingers!
This block is not for swapping as it is cream instead of white.

Everyone must be busy making their RWB blocks. No activity since Tuesday on here. Can't wait to swap.

Marcia Hohn's Wild Zinnias original design

Kind of looks like the Legion of Merit to me. Next time, I'll do it in gold, silver & blue & see how that looks.

"Would appreciate any feedback on this one."

I love it! Look at you, getting all fancy here on us. I want one of these too.

Mariposa- Did I send enough blocks in to get one back from everyone??? I'm loving these blocks.

More pictures please, I love seeing them and drooling.

Libster,
Thanks for the feedback!
I'm using the Zinnia in my king size quilt to add to the ones I receive in this swap. Quilter's Cache has the pattern if you want to attempt the block. It took me 7 hours for one block because I'm a slow newbie quilter and still not satisfied with it but will keep trying to improve. You could probably do a great job of it in 2 hours!
Isn't this fun!
