    I commend you for being honest and doing one block at a time. I too find it hard to do several blocks of the same.

    I believe you have the bottom row of the Lebanon block on upside down. Is the lavendar one suppossed to be a mirror image on opposite sides? My eye is drawn to several different areas and looks a little off. I do not mean to be critical by any means, but if they need correcting, better now than when put together.

    Otherwise, you will have a lovely quilt when done. Look forward to seeing more.

    Yes bitty29 - it sure is. I was going to take it all apart, but changed my mind. It is what it is :)

    When I look at the purple and white block things look off to me too - but I don't know why. I am trying not to be so critical of my stuff as most people (other than quilters) would even notice Thanks though - had I not know, and saw it later - it would have put me over the edge!!

    It's going to be a great Sampler quilt. Great blocks. I love Quilter's Cache. They have so many pretty blocks.

    That really sounds and looks like fun! Are you making them all the same size or just using ones that especially appeal to you? They have so many to choose from. You'll be busy forever!

    Your doing a great job on all the blocks. Thats a great idea to mix them up. How many are you going to do total?

    I don't know if I will every put it together. Right now it is just to practice and learn. I feel like I actually have something acomplished when I get one of these done vs. doing a lap quilt with all basic squares and never feeling like it is anything special. I have a couple of those started, but they are just not interesting enough. My hope is to keep doing one block at a time - and I think I will keep it consistant with a color and white. Maybe some day I will find one I like enough to make a whole quilt with. Until then - block by blcok!

    I just finsished the green one. By far the worst one I have done so far. I don't think I got any point to line up, it is not square at all, and looks a bit crocked in the middle! I showed my DH and DD and they said it looked good. I think they were being nice, but I also know them well enough that if they noticed all the problems I did - they would not be shy about telling me!
