Lets go back to the first instructions. The light block should be white, tone on tone , or light colored fabric. That makes some of the lights similar or the same. Lets not struggle too much here. All the darks/mediums are different by our directions. As for final size, most of us will "make do" by stretching or easing, but lets work on that "scant 1/4". And until you have mastered the scant 1/4" lets avoid "chain piecing" where the errors continue block after block if you have not mastered your cutting/seaming/piecing yet. I admit this is a tough block, and certain assembly techniques add to this problem, but we are here to have fun and share and not demand our group assemble per a specific techniques because we have all skill levels in our group. I have no objection to swapping, my sizes are 4 1/2" square, and 2 1/2" triangles.

I am doing the happy dance. My blocks came in the mail today. I got some nice blocks. Keep sewing ladies so the next swap will be just as good. Jane, thanks for all your time in putting this swap together.

This is one of the best scrappy patterns yet. and swapping ensures scrappiness. Yours look wonderful frustratedquilter40. I know you are happy with your collection.

Well, here's a photo of the HST's I'm using for now. As I finish the actual blocks, I will decide which ones really don't work and pull them. Their are a couple that I'm not sure there is enough contrast. That's what I will be doing this weekend. Hopefully, I measured everything and cut everything correctly and they will go together without any problems. (I'm saying that with a smile on my face and hope in my heart. lol)



Frusteratedquilter, those are some beautiful blocks. Your right, this pattern really is a fun block and will look great scrappy.
