Janice - One is from your blue and the other is your green with the dash of blue you included.
Sewbiz - The Rockwell fabric called out for special treatment. The block is actually straighter than it looks in the photo. You create such great blocks; I hope you like it.
These are great blocks.

This block is ready to be done with me! lol. I picked up the pink in the cheeks for the star. I originally tried blues but they seemed to get lost in the print. Hope it will work for you.
Great block too

Lovely block

Anybody who has any extra of the blue Janice included with the green, I could use a 2 1/2” X 7” strip. My calculations came up short. Maybe math isn’t my strong suit anymore!
GramE, These are great too.

Wow, at the pieces, Great job.

Yay, i love when I get over my Tech difficulties, which isn't too often. I usually have to call my daughter to fix what I have messed up.

I'm knocked totally off-kilter after Charlie Kirk was assasinated today. He was a hero of mine. 31 years old and two babies and a beautiful wife. Just can't believe it! So incredibly sad. I was working on this "Salem" block for GramE when I heard the terrible news.
Such a senseless death, so sad. great block for GramE

Off to make another block this evening. Photo is a little dark and the light is not yellowish but snowy. Poor lighting I guess, but done!

Such lovelies everyone.
wonderful block

Sewed late last night and got these two blocks done, one for SusieQ and one for Cheese. Hope you like them, ladies.
beautiful blocks. I love everyone's blocks.

Happy Beach Day!
Cute block

Hav4boys - That bee fabric is cute. I was aiming for a honeycomb effect; some people might see a soccer ball. The BONUS block may look more like a honey frame. I included a small bit of the bee fabric from my stash to make the BONUS block 12.5 inches.

Take care, everyone.
Love the honeycomb look, so genius.

Whenever we head north we make a short detour to check out our old hunting land. For us it’s shocking to see how the owner let the land go to seed and has junk sitting everywhere. Bet the neighbors miss us

It is incredibly beautiful at the lake, no humidity, windows are open and there is a slight breeze. A very welcome change to the non stop wind that is usually here.

A couple blocks for today. A fall block for All2 pieces and a block for me. The block for me wasn’t what I envisioned but couldn’t find a third color to go with the fabric
wonderful blocks.
