I started a crayola block last year & of course it is waiting for me to complete it! I'll have to get it done this year maybe!

Can't wait to see your block and what others here do. Please post!

All I can say is WOW!! Your birds are breathtaking. I will also be waiting anxiously to see more blocks and the finished quilt.

I had forgotten about using crayons but I think I will now change my border idea. I just finished a top and wanted to applique fall leaves on the outer border but I think coloring them would be so much prettier. Thank you for showing how colorful they turn out.
