I'd mentioned in the "Introduce Yourself" thread that I would post a pic of the hand-pieced Royal Cross blocks I've done so far. Sadly, my daughter's camera's batteries were fading fast, so I had to snap quick, and the picture is blurry. You can kind of get the idea, anyway.

It took me a year to do one block, then I did the other five in Dec/Jan. Now I'm back to it again, and I hope to get the others done in the next month or so. It's my first quilt, and just for the living room, when my husband falls asleep on the couch, or I get a chance to take a nap. :wink:

Looking at it now, I see the overwhelming pattern is circles, which I'm not too fond of. I like the crosses, so I guess I'll be surrounding the blocks with sashing, and then a border.
