    Can you post the link so I can print it? I just haven't been able to find my way around here very well. Thanks!

Then turn each quarter piece, looking at the resulting block from those turns and checking out the one you like the most. Or turn just the opposite corner quarter pieces and check out that design as well. Have fun with it.

    Hobbykat, Love your choice of fabrics. I too enlarged mine (150 %) & will add borders to make it the right size. Haven't gone through my stash yet

    Love the kitties posted! Great use of color in all. I have only one kitty pieced for 2 reasons:
    1. Can't decide what to do in the other sections of the block.
    2. While piecing my kitty I realized I had a pin missing. My real life kitty likes to grab them and run so I am VERY careful with my pins. A missing pin caused a stop in the action and a search. Couldn't find the pin so tried to finish block but my iron was acting funny. Not gliding and kind of grabbing the material. Yep - you guessed it! My missing pin was melted onto the bottom of my iron!!! Had to clean iron, apologize to real life kitty for accusing her of stealing a pin and prying her mouth open... So, my Feb. block is not finished. Sigh. Maybe tomorrow.

    WOW!! You are fast with your block for February & it's darling. I like it sized up to the 11 inch square, then with your border, it will be the perfect size. I see a resembalance to the real thing!! Very nice choice of fabric's & work. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us today.
