    Thanks, Patti. I think I've probably done over 1000 leaf shapes in my quilty lifetime. I find them so very easy, especially if you beef up the taper to make it not so thin at the taper

    I'm getting fairly good at the points on the leaves and the outty points on the hearts...still struggling with those thin tapered points on the scroll type shapes though :roll:

    I know what you mean...Block #9, I did ok with the hearts and thought, whew! I'm doing ok...then I go to #10 and those pointy leaves...or at least I made my green, so I'm calling them leaves.
    I was handsewing and me and those pieces nearly got into a
    rawballing fight!
    I have one that is an "iffy".
    Iffy it comes undone, I'm gonna replace it!
    I'm gonna start using the glue, I've tried many other things...freezer paper and glue next.
    This is all stretching me and I can say, I'm quite stretched already, lol! :roll: - :XD:

    Patti and Kathy you both made beautiful blocks. I really enjoyed that block. Great work from both of you.
