Well if you or anyone else wants to do another dancing skeleton block just let me know by PM.:rolleyes: I have four more that need to be done. I still have 5 or 6 more to do and I'm stuck on the butterflies. Not sure what to do with them.

Yep I'm in that club too. Even when I make a practice block I still end up ripping. And those striped fabrics, getting the edges to match.... I started basting, then sewing to make sure everything was good. These ladies who turn out all their beautiful perfect blocks so ... well I'm in awe. I finally retreated to raw edge applique to give myself a break.

Kass, I believe this is your best one yet... It looks like what you see through the eyehole of a kaliedoscope, just about to turn. Turned out super!

MollyMunchkin, love the HST star block you made for Marietta. It's amazing how many block designs can be made with all HSTs. Love them.

Marietta, great block for A2P! :thumbup:

Well, I have to say your raw edge applique is beautiful. You rock at that!

Bonus block 1 for Nana Kathy, the reverse colors and same block as first one. Road to Heaven. If it is ok with Nana Kathy I will be using her original block in church when I share my faith journey

And bonus block 2 for Francie, a variation on Fair Play

Beautiful, Terri. The road to Heaven is such a pretty block, and I like that purple with the butterflies!
