Love those! Will post mine later after I finish them. My Daffodil was backwards from the book.

Blame it on the meds, Anne! Hope you're feeling better. Missed the center point in Crystal and my daffodil is also backwards. Can I blame it on meds???? QNS, very clever use of fabrics in Daffodil--like a landscape.[ATTACH=CONFIG]534329[/ATTACH]

Using templates on the back side of the fabric, will tend to reverse the image on the front side on blocks like this. I use the right side of the fabric and scrap booking ink pens or gel pens to mark with on the fabric, the outline and the seam allowances.

Yes, I think we posted just after one another....JanRN. Thanks, I wanted the daffodil to look like 'real' thing. April rain brings May flowers.

Here are my Crystal and Daffodil (also backward). Crystal turned out pretty wonky. My bad -- I decided to redraw the pattern in EQ so more pieces were joined, and ended up with at least 8 y-seams. Thus the wonkiness!

I like the way your Daffodil turned out. I used a red background (unfinished) and don't think I like it very much. May do it over.

Remember, next week is a third of the way done with all blocks! Hang in there, folks! Unless it has become a 'chore' and no longer any fun. I love the challenge of each block and try to imagine how the author choose each block and made up the original pattern pieces. It will be your quilt in the end, the way you choose to do each block or not or how you did each one.

I quit on three different projects with QB when my sight got so bad...and still feel bad about not finishing with the group in 50 stars, Dear Jane and Elm Creek Wedding Quilt. Still have my totes with each yet. Maybe someday I will finish them, feel young again, and complete all my UFOs. One step at a time. Multiple steps do not move along too fast...in finishing each quilt or UFOs. Better to look at what you are committed too, and decide what or which to do:first priority. Yes, I get bored and move along too quickly sometimes and have to back track myself; and decide what to do each day.Choices are all mine, to do or not to do. As OK put it "Time to commit!'
