I did it...3 weeks in a row I have both blocks for the week done...Yeah!! Are we as a group going to sub blocks for our international buddies' flags??? I think that we should name them also for them. What do you think???
My Blocks...look closely at the red fabric...

Anne these are wonderful--especially like the fussy cutting on the NY block. I'm working on these now. I am using the Aussie/kangaroo fabric from QE in the North Star block. Have you checked last week's discussion page. Lots of chatter regarding some substitute blocks.

Yes, I have read them and think the tulip & frog blocks are cute and would also like to do them...which blocks will be subbed or are we all on our own for that?

It was my opinion that it would be on your own. Back to sewing. DH had just interrupted me again. :-)

Honchey--your blocks are both great! I like the floral fabric in North Star and all your fabrics in NY so your support for the troops.

Okay I am back at it. Cleaning the sewing room was cathartic and sharing what I have gotten done with SIL and DS motivational to get me back on track with the PC as well as FWS and the Barbara Brackman CW blocks that I have started. My North Star took a detour south with the Aussie fabric; USA flags also a "gifted" fabric. NY took on its life with this center eagle (a gifted piece) paired with the red stripes from a certain Japanese fabric. Thanks to all the friends who contributed to these 2 blocks.[ATTACH=CONFIG]357169[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]357170[/ATTACH]

Oksewglad, I love the way you used the fabrics in these blocks. I had to look several times at North Star to see if it was the same block!!! The red stripe in NY looks veeerry familiar...don't you love the way the fabric changes in the light???

Thanks Honchey! We've all said it before how the fabric selection changes the look of a block. Yes and that red is such a beautiful fabric to sew on as well.
