    I've been working on this for two weeks I think, it's the design in my avatar picture. The 36 Birds In The Air blocks are done and the Jacob's Ladder blocks are ready to sew the rows together. I'm also about half done with the center applique, one bird and the flower pot left to do.

    I sewed one of the blocks together to see how it was going and to my delight it doesn't even need to be squared up. The lines and diagonal are just about perfect. :D

    I'm doing this one with pressing the seams open. What a pain and burned fingers.

    I am so glad to finally see it in some fabric, I bet you are too! It is going to be even better than your pattern I can just tell. :)
