    Hey, GUESS WHAT? I made two more blocks! Shucks. Forgot to take a picture of them.

    Well, I'll go do that.

    They came out to 12.5 INCHES! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!

    Man, the one, Bear Tracks, that was HARD! I had four places where two points and a seam came together and it was pretty tricky sewing over all that bulk.

    But, I did it. I've now got three blocks done! Nine to go.

    I'll be back with pics.

    The Bear Tracks is like the Bear's Paw, only you have four of them in the block.

    It doesn't look hard, but it's tricky, I'd say. But, I hope it's good enough!

    That cat picture is from a really cute cat fabric that is a repeating print of different artsy cats. So, I couldn't spare any room because the next cat was right there.

    It's my mom's scrap heap I got that from. She made a cute pillow with that fabric.

    I've got the next two lined up to go. I'm starting from what I perceived to be easiest to hardest ...

    I have to say, Grandma's Cross in red/white and blue is going to be a challenge because there's four colors. Hmmmmmm.....

    Has anybody from our group made up the Grandma's Cross block yet? This thread is so long, I can't remember all the blocks posted. I'll have to look back through.

    I redid several of the blocks. Hope they are OK. I really worked at getting them to be 12 1/2" and 1/4" seams. The colors came out different. The Bear Tracks are pink and my carpet it grey.

    This is the Goshen Star for doowopddbop. The color never comes out right, so I'll tell you - the star is maroon and the background is unbleached muslin. The block wasn't as hard as it looks and I really enjoyed making it. I hop you like it doowop!! bettlove
