Those little quare blocks can be real buggers because they look easy.....For as hard as Naomi looks, I think it's the easiest. Can't do wings yet, so I don't know how hard they are. But again. Love these.
the two really bad blocks are tahe beige block on the right and top. I was just frustrated because before I realized it was wrong, I was so happy that I hadn't turned on, and all my seams were just about perfect. I know, hardest on myself. LOL

I really should have taken a picture of the before, because the rows of little black squares and rust squares were in a row, the four corners that look like bow ties were good, the four patch corners were good. BUT..... the beige squares on top bottom and sides, only one was good. So after I put it back together, two of those points I couldn't make up. I actually think I sewed an entire row on backwards or upside down. But after I quilt it, it will be ok.

Your color placement is differant from mine. I mean the light and darks are in a differant pattern. I like what you did with it.

I think I just turned the picture, or maybe that was my mistake. But I do love doing them, so I certainly am not going to stop now.
Rhonda, how many weeks of Blocks were you planning on doing? At 17 weeks, you have 51 blocks already. I may just have to make more than one sampler. LOL

I was thinking of doing it for a year. 12 blocks a month for 12 mos would be 144 blocks. Too many? LOL

ROFLMBO not as long as you can keep designing. Even if I don't make them all, I love to see them, and now I won't be in such a hurry to finish this because I want to make sure I have just the perfect ones now. Thanks.

Yes I do hope after Christmas we see pictures. I don't just want to see mine. LOL, but one of these days, I'll lay out what I have done, because since I have used to many colors and fabrics, I really don't know what color sashing and how wide I should make it yet. My sister wants to see them too, and I haven't been sending pictures to her as I finish the blocks.
