Annaquilts, The gingham square block was made with 2.5" blocks. I got the pattern from one of the vintage farm block books you were hoping to have us do blocks "in the style of". I love playing with those candies (2.5") and now I have something to show on the 25th in the Candy thread :-). I am so happy you picked this theme for us to work on for your blocks. It was great fun and that's what I love about the booms -- stretching my little grey cells.....
Mom to 14!! You are an amazing woman! Good job! I would have loved to have a bunch of kids so instead I teach :-).
