    Thank you Jinnie! I can't wait to see a few of your strips cut and put together. I love the colors you are using.

    Hello! I did it! I finished the 4th star block so I can make a chain block and see what it looks like. I don't like the colors of some of the fabrics in these pictures. Some of them are just soooo much brighter in person. I took this next picture on the daylight setting and with the sun shining. They are closer to the real colors than some of the other pictures.

    Anyways, here is the 4th block. Isn't it just beautiful???
    I love it. It is so bright. I took a comparison picture this morning of the 4 blocks. One I took on Auto and one on daylight. The greens and oranges especially look more real in the daylight setting one.

    I'm having a lot of problems sleeping and haven't been to bed yet, so I'm going to take a nap and then I'll try to get the chain block done, If nothing else comes up that I need to do. Hope you like the fourth star.

    Have a wonderful Sunday!

    This is the first 4 star blocks, taken with the camera set on Auto, so you can see the difference in the settings.

    This is the 4 star blocks with the camera set on daylight and the sun shining. They look alot brighter, which some of them are. Which setting do you think I should use during the day to take the pictures?
