    Hope it is ok if I start this thread. I have my blocks finished. Had a few issues with the bowtie which I thought would have been an easy block to do.
    Am thoroughtly enjoying this process, love playing with fabric

    Now to start on the next 2, I have actually ripped out number 11 twice so time for a deep breath and start again :)

    Great blocks.
    Honchey, I really like the blue flowered fabric. It really caught my eye.
    Mine are cut out will try and sew tomorrow morning. Oh wait it is morning! Guess I better get to bed.

    Those are really pretty blocks. You ladies are up and at 'em early today!! I better get moving-will post pics later. Your blocks are such an inspiration to keep going on this project when I run into a troublesome block.

    I want to use it again and pair it up with a pale lavender print. there's a little bit of that in the background. I'm thinking that when the wives were piecing they were using fabric from clothing that had been washed alot so I like to mix some muted shades in the mix from my scraps.

    I still say I haven't seen a single repeat in all the blocks. It's amazing! :) :)

    I think it will be lovely. I wonder how many of us were thinking the same thing about the fabrics. Anyway, I wasn't going to repeat any fabrics but some I just really like and so...

    Will post mine later today. Sorry, guess this should have been on Discussion page. :oops:
