    Quiltinghere ...If you go to the link of the leaf block, on the second page mary's sample blocks that you can click on to see, are with the black backround.

    This is interesting... I might have to join this one! I love fall colors.

    Some one used a black background...

    I'm thinking on this one, may be a stupid question but I'm new quilter, my question is, what is 1/4" scant? I know what 1/4" seam allowance is, but I don't know what is a scant? LOL

    Do you have any idea of how much of each fabric we will need to do all 12 blocks?

    Here is my attempt with a minor change I did the stem in brown instead of the orange. The orange just didnt look right, so I tried this.

    The block was very easy to do. it is just 4 HST's and the block w/ the stem. It took longer to trim up that block than anything else. You have to be careful when trimming or the stem will be off center if it isn't squared correctly.....
