    My badly needed, new neutrals just arrived, along with one other green that I just could not resist! The last neutral has a tiny bit of green and red in the print.[ATTACH=CONFIG]576817[/ATTACH]Thought you might enjoy seeing them.

    I went to the quilt shop today, to drop off quilts for a show next month. I got to shop for more browns! Picked out two pretty FQs.

    Sooo pretty, Mary. Your points look great to me! These blocks are making us better piecers, don't you think? Lots of practice.

    Here are the two new 'browns'...

    HEY! Didn't see my mistake(s) until I posted a photo! That's what photos are good for. Will fix those boo boos with the neutrals. I already have one 'humility block' so will fix these!

    Thats the same mistake I made, Sewbizgirl. If you look close you can see a not so straight seam where I ripped it out, turned it around and re sewed it closed. Looks Like I'm in good company here...
