I made my Alabama block today. Here is the picture:

It's beautiful Judy. Thanks for sharing.

Great job Judy. I just borrowed the book from my friend to see if I can do some of them. Thanks for sharing.

Another thing I like about the Kona cotton for these: no front or back of the fabrics and they pretty much go well together. One less thing for me to worry about!

I've just recently starting paper piecing and I really enjoy it. I ordered her the book for this BOW so will have to play catch-up when I receive it. Looking forward to seeing all the great blocks.

Very pretty GoldenDog. I think the solid colors really show off the piecing. I'm using batiks and I think some of the cuts are going to get lost. Oh well, I know they're there. :)

Ok, fellow quilters; you hooked me. Just ordered my book. I'll be about 3 weeks behind by the time it gets here, but I think this is going to be a lot of fun.

And I would suggest making those background blocks 4" and 5" - that extra 1/4" is sometimes needed!

Yes the templates in the book are the right size. I only bought 5 yards of background fabric but I guess I will have to get 2 more. It is a batik and will be really hard to buy elsewhere. I looked thru the book and at least half of the blocks take just 4 3/4 X 4 3/4 squares and 3 3/4 X 3 3/4 squares. It doesn't seem to add up to that much. I love my background fabric so I guess I will have to buy more. Carol Doak said it adds up to about 5 yards but buy 7 to be safe.
