Life is getting in the way right now.
I didnt see too much wrong with your quilt blocks! It looks good to me! We all can always improve of course but alot of that comes with practice. And even with as many of them as I have made I still lose points sometimes. It happens. I do my best and I will go back and redo a few times but usually if I can't get it with one or two redos then I just have to say oh well and let it go!! If you tack and have things so they can't move you will get a better looking Block too. I really liked the suggestion to use a magnetic strip to mark your 1/4". That is not only a marker but it is a raised marker too.
