Love your colors - yellow, blue, and greens together! Looking great!

These are the blocks I have made so far. I'm quite happy with block 0 but not block 1. Is there a secret to getting the circles to sit nicely I undid this one sooo many times I wore a hole in the fabric. I think I've got the hang of the points. Do you square these blocks up ? Any advise gladly accepted. Thank you.

looking good! as for the seams it appears other people have made all the suggestions I would have and use to make mine

Wonder contrast in those blocks,efayard! I am glad your pictures are not small, so don't change them.
I am working on these blocks also, 2 done. I think it might take more than December to be all caught up. I needed to leave some time for my Christmas sewing too.

Keep those photos coming, I love the scrappy look with these.

My latest blocks. Some came out better than others. Hopefully pressing will make them look a little better.

Your blocks are beautiful. I LOVE Batiks.

Wow such gorgeous blocks. Still haven't started yet, but I am very anxious to start. Keep up the good work. My 50 fabulous paper pieced star quilt is all sewn together and now I am working on the back. I blew one of the stars up 300% and am putting it on the back.

Yes! But they won't post. I'm going to take my camera to work tomorrow and hopefully I can post them :-)
