    done on my own (not in class) Im soo proud of myself even though it isnt prefect. My points are off and some seams. Plus it isnt exactly 12" squared.

    Good for you!! Looks good to me!!! and when it comes right down to it, the seams and such are usually distracted by the quilting.

    They have ratings by them and this one was rated 1 pin for easy. Its the Austin block. But it wasnt really easy with the points meeting. I would love to make a whole quilt with this block :) I was using scraps from my class quilt top.
