This time I sewed HST's using the 4 or 8 at a time method and I like the second block much better plus it came out at the right size of 6.5 inches.

Your second block came out beautifully, Connie. Maybe the first should go on the back of the quilt, as a reminder to never give up, even when the going gets tough
