Your seams are quite nice and I always press them before I post. They look so much better than when they pop out of their envelopes. :lol:

Glad you like it. Was a lemonade experience that came out right.

Question: What does "Spirit of the West" mean to you? Looking to do a block and I am stumped. Done the wild animal blocks, elk, cabin with bear, eagle, buffalo, but they do not seem quite right. What else reminds you of the west?

Saguaro cactus (the tall straight ones with the arms), old wagon wheels, Spanish missions, old cemeteries, panning for gold, old town buildings with wooden boardwalks, a jail, a saloon, dancehall girls, ranch houses with fenced pastures, etc.

I used patterns that I had form years ago from a block of the month pattern and it was called Wanda's Choice. That is it. Sorry no definite name. It makes my day that you all are liking your blocks from me. I have done my job then, even left footed. HAHAHAHA

Do you have an actual pattern for it that you would share? I think it would be a good one to make!!

QuilterMomma 08-30-2011 03:08 PM

Yes I do, will see what I can do to scan in or get it to you. I can pm you the block measurements and you use the one you have as a guide. I think I took a photo of yours. Will have to see when get home.
