Here's my block & then a picture of them all laid out as they have been made.
I am wanting to try to ensure that the selection of colours are equal throughout the blocks as I am making mine from lots of different FQ's LOL.

I have thought about adding a dark chocolate brown border to each block then adding sashing in say a Taupe?? What do you think?????

Tisha :P

I did my Ohio Star last night but I shouldn't have! I was really tired and the points don't match in two different places so i have to get ripping! :oops:
My points don't look so great either---I had problems with those 1/4 square triangles.....

Pleased you love my blocks - now down to brass tacks as we say on this side of the pond.
The floorboards are solid oak they cost us an arm & leg. Had to laugh as the chap who installed them told DH & I that they would last for years well beyond our life time. Charming huh? LOL

Tisha

BTW I love your Avatar pic :P

Here's mine; along with the set placed in month order. I am thinking about changing April; the colors are too bright.

Chickadee---your blocks are great, too.

I am not going to put mine together in "month order" because of the colors I have chosen. I don't think there is a rule about any certain order, so put them together any way that pleases you. :-)
