I figure since we're not starting til January I can practice some more. I don't think there's a way to pp this block; if someone figures out a way, I hope they share it or my very 1st block is going to maybe be my last LOL.

The FWS group has a lot of talented quilters in it so I'm hoping someone will come up with suggestions. That was what was so great doing ths quilt along--everyone shared tips, knowledge, and especially encouragement. Can you tell I miss them?
