Gorgeous blocks! 
I'm fixing to hit the sewing machine shortly. Just waiting on my caffeine and sinus medicine to kick in. Stupid pollen! 
This is totally off topic, but guess what!!! DH and I were given (as in FREE!) a camper yesterday! It's a 2002 Coleman Bayside pop up camper, and it looks like it's never been camped in. We'll be bringing it home on Thursday, and with a little luck, we plan to go camping in it this weekend. As far as pop ups go, it's HUGE. It has a slide-out, and can sleep 6-8 people easily. We've always tent-camped, or camped in the little teardrop camper that we recently built, so this thing feels like a mansion. It even has heat and air conditioning. We're so excited!

Duh, you are absolutely correct. Ugg. My mind is playing tricks on me. Thanks for straightening me out so quickly!

AnnaQuilts - LOVE the block! Thanks bunches!
That's so sweet of you! Thanks so much! LOVE the block! I saved a few trimmings from where I cut the F8s, in case I need a few more blocks, but the trimmings are pretty small. If I need a bit more, I may just take you up on that offer! I wish Connecting Threads would bring back some of the more popular fabrics, but it seems that once a particular fabric is sold out, it's gone forever. 
I noticed the other day that they only have a few batiks left, and they're all on clearance. I e-mailed them, but they said that's all they had. No mention of if they're getting more in the future, or if they're discontinuing batiks entirely.
Moonrise I will send back your whole F8, I have this fabric so used mine. If you end up needing more let me know and I can sure send you some

libster that will be awesome for your summer fun!!
moonrise, I didn't buy mine by the regular yardage, I bought it as 108" wide and used it for a backing on my great grand daughter's quilt.
Just looked and they have it in the wide backing section if you are interested

Edit: Do you happen to have a link? I looked in the backing section (both pages) twice, but I must be missing it. Here's JaniceMcC's block, "Off-Centered Squares", inspired by https://www.pinterest.com/pin/373095150358202484/
[ATTACH=CONFIG]545616[/ATTACH]
Edit: The color is off quite a bit. The greens are actually a bright spring-y green with a hint of olive. They look like a greenish-yellow on my screen. (Eeeww.)
