Jaba, Those are lovely. Your Dec. block came out great. Can you or Mamahen tell the rest of us what you did to use the 3 colors as opposed to only the 2 as the pattern calls for.
I'm still not finished with November but it is in the process of being assembled.

Keep looking at the blocks on the design wall and can't make up my mind what to sash the blocks with. Then have to come up with a creative border and blend it all together. Want to get it done so I'm ready for the New Year. Gees, we are starting again in January aren't we????

Stunning! That fleur-de-lis print is so eye-catching.

Just wondering.....here's my block and all 12 for this year.
Jaba,

I'm giving this a try, never posted a pdf before.

This is for the four middle blocks. The grid lines should print at 1/4 inch for the dimensions to be proper.

If this doesn't work send me your email.

Nothing special in choosing colors, I used 4 colors, just break it down into pieces & let your color choices go. I can see where even 5 fabric colors would work.
