This is such fun! I got to learn how to use my new 30 degree triangle ruler for this block.

Julie, that is an awesome block!

Julie, I think we all want to get one of those blocks or we will all need to get the ruler. That looks stunning.

I want one!!! Gorgeous blocks. Now I have to have that ruler. What brand is it?

Thanks for the compliments, ladies! The ruler is called Simpli-EZ 30 degree Triangle. I found mine at Tuesday Morning; it was actually a package of 3 of the rulers for $7. I shared the other two with quilty friends! It makes the Tippee Canoe block; Darlene Zimmerman made the "Hummingbird Quilt Pattern" (AWESOME!-google images to see some quilts) with the ruler and has a tutorial on her websight (straythreads.blogspot.com).

Hoping this one will be a smaller pic, at least it is straighter than my other posts!

Here's my set 5. One more to go and it's already cut out. How's everyone else coming along with theirs?

My 4th set of blocks.

I found this great fabric at Joanns on the red tag clearance shelves. It has pictures of the U.S. Cavalry doing their job! I knew I could made a great block out of it....just add strips like a log cabin!

BTW Did you know the U.S. Army still has the Cavalry??? They no longer ride the horses, but they do ride and fix tanks and helicopters!

I want one of yours too! Love that fussy cut.
