OK... last.. here are my blocks C7, D13 and C10 - which I noticed I had never posted...[ATTACH=CONFIG]342255[/ATTACH]Now that I see the picture I do remember I still need to cut C10 down ... it really is larger [better than having C7 be too small!!!] C10 is the first one - made completely by machine - I simply added a 1/4" seam allowance to each piece after measuring the sketch carefully [I made the half square triangles using 1 1/2" squares and trimming down later]. D13 at the end is one of the easiest in the book!

C7 I constructed completely by hand. I enlarged the book sketch to 108% so that the corner diamonds would reach the corners and the inner border corners would touch the seamline rather than come in. Yes, I hand pieced all those teeny tiny pieces on each side of the diamonds inside that border! It was tedious but fun really! If you mark it with a disappearing marker and sew carefully you will not have to unsew!
