This was another fun block to make. I only used 2 reds. One in the corner and the other one is the three triangles pointing to the corner. I took a picture of my 6 blocks and they are in no particular order. I hope to see more of you ladies blocks soon.

They all look great. Anna, I am using a die to cut my pieces. I have not made this block yet. I am working on two other quilts right now, but I have selected the fabrics and dipped them in starch mixture. Waiting for them to dry, then will press, die cut, and stitch.....All in good time.

I'm loving your pictures! Such pretty colors and fabrics. Love this block. I was gonna save it for a few days but y'all are making me want to make it now.
I don't press any seams open. The only thing I might do is to spin seams in a 4 patch intersection. Other than that I press to the dark. I rotary cut my pieces. I don't break out the Go! cutter unless I'm doing many multiples.
Nice work on those blocks, ladies!
Welcome to orangeroom and sherian. If you haven't been getting the blocks yet, be sure to sign up now and then message Debbie to ask for this week's block. There will also be a link in it to last week's block... so all you will have to buy are the first 4. ($.99 each). Hope you've already been collecting them.

Love everyone's blocks. I can't believe some of you have #6 made already. Yikes!!!! I ponder too much over what fabric to use I guess! DottyD-Love your Christmas fabric block. Also, love to see how everyone does different fabric and they all turn out so lovely. I had better get off this QB and get started.
