Here are my blocks for Week 2, Blocks 3 and 4. I used the method shown in the Quilt Show Postage Stamp Basket video for the handle, and it worked pretty well.

Looking good Nicky ... autumn colours are my favourites! The touch of blue will be fun to work with in future blocks.

The patch of blue calms the brightness down, doesn't it! Lovely, Nicky!

I was thinking they are too bright for this project. Will have to think about that.

Nothing wrong with some brightness ... mix and match with your other fabrics and it'll all blend together!
