Love it, and love the colors! Great job.

It's only 14" square, so it was easy to get a nice clear photo. Believe it or not, I just used my phone's camera!

Thanks!

Thanks, Lynnie! I foundation pieced it, so the size of the pieces was no problem. I overcut the pieces, so they were each about 1" x 5" or so. From there it was just sewing on the lines!

A very good friend got me this kit because she wanted to drive me crazy. I sat next to her at the retreat while I made it and she was disappointed!

Thank you! The quilt in my avatar was about 16" square, so the pieces weren't small. I also paper pieced that one, which is an original design.

Thanks again!

Since this was paper pieced, I cut everything at about 1" x 5" and trimmed down. It really was easy! I'll post a PDF pattern later today.

Thanks!

They finish at 3.5". I'll post a PDF later today.

Thanks again for all your kind comments! This was a fun project, and once you get a rhythm going with the paper piecing it goes fairly quickly.

Here's a PDF of the block!

Thanks again,

Lynda
