Who said this month's blocks are "easy"?? Or maybe it's this heat wave we're having. At any rate, I had a heck of a time with the one that looks like a lifesaver, the second in the bunch. For me, the easy ones turn out to be hard. I finally appliqued the shapes onto a square of background after swearing at the Y seams. It occurred to me later that I should have cut four 3.5" squares, then stitch n flipped small background squares on opposing corners. Anyone else? I found the third one, that looks complex, easy, so it's on to #4 today.
