Lovely block but too hard without a hands on teacher for me. I used Januarys blocks (made two) and made pillows out of them. This is a great way to try new things. LOVE IT!
This is just too cute, I love it :-)

The latest blocks are just great--as the rest all are. Need to get mine done--have a clean sewing room, spent 2 weeks of March away from home and now have a houseful for Easter with a baby shower thrown in. After Monday then....

Great job on all the blocks, I like seeing all the different fabrics used. I especially like seeing the three months together.
