Hi All, I have started to PP these blocks. I have finished # 23 but #24 is still in pieces. I got the little squares all mixed up. Oh well, I hope to get it done tonite. Anne

I'm still working on 24 too. I finally got a job and training is exhausting me. I come home and don't feel like doing anything. But I will get caught up before next week. I drafted it in Quilt Assistant and clicked the paper piecing tab but it didn't do it right and I had to go back in and manually rename some of the pieces.

Hi, I have started doing some of these too, & love them! I am piecing mine, but for those of you interested in pp, on the yahoo group for this, they have added the pp blocks to their files! So, join that group, lurk if you prefer & find the pp blocks! This is the site the author of the book is on too, in case you are interested!

Or, you can make your own pp. I tend to make mine in larger pieces. It's like creating a puzzle you then get to play.
Definitely join the yahoo group if you haven't already. Good pix and info.
I keep making additional blocks in my FW fabrics. Here's my 4H bonus block. I also made a Scottie.

I just finished # 24--I was a little bothered that there wasn't enough contrast between 2 of the fabrics but after it was all together I was satisfied with it. Anne
