    This is a quilt for my friend's new granddaughter. It's my first try at using the hour glass block. The baby's nursery is in pinks and black. This was not as hard a block to do as I thought it would be.

    Very cute! I love how you used the same background fabric in each block and then went wild with the other fabrics. It all ties in together very well! Lucky baby!

    Luckily I only knicked a couple of points, but not so much that it's very noticeable. I didn't take a closeup so you can't see them :)
