The FWS 30's Quiltalong Week 23 Block #45 Jenny & Block # 46 Jewel
 

Oh I'm so sorry I totally forgot it was Tuesday..

I do have this block made and it is backwards but that's okay with me...

I know Buddy's Mom is anxious :) so let's have some Show & Tell!!!! Yay!!

Lovey block, Honchey. I have mine cut out, so see what progress I can do this afternoon.

I don't see backwards--looks fine to me and such nice bright cheery colors on this dark dreary day. Here are mine:[ATTACH=CONFIG]541161[/ATTACH]

Love those batiks, JanRN.

Awesome blocks ladies, I can't seem to get my camera to take a good picture, I'll keep trying.

Jan, yours is the same as mine so it must be right!! :D I can almost see the block spinning...

Buddy's Mom, I wish you good luck with your camera; that can be frustrating after doing the blocks.

Mine are one and a half done; too many interruptions and I had to quit for the evening. It's in the process, and will get done when it gets done.

Mine are done but I will post them tomorrow. I have been sick with whatever is going around here.

Well not perfect pictures, but they'll have to do, as you can see my first block was backwards so I fixed it, second pic not so great but I love the fabric, I call it bleeding hearts, as that's what it reminds me of.

Very pretty. Your Jewel block looks 3-D, love the colors in both.

I love your colors in both, Buddy's Mom. And I love bleeding heart plants. There are several in m garden. Just have one and a half block done so will post mine later...

Great blocks, everyone! I love your red, Buddy's Mom.

Thanks ladies, I love how everyone's blocks are turning out, nice to see all the different fabric's we've all used. I had a huge mountain of bleeding hearts but we had to move and they were all left behind.

Spots of spring popping up...thanks for sharing....

Here are my Jenny and Jewel. The black spots are on the scanner : ( I probably will have to re-do Jewel, I didn't see the nick on the left side until I scanned it!

Very pretty blocks.

Love the fussy cutting on the blocks. They all look good to me. My two blocks: Jenny and Jewel:[ATTACH=CONFIG]541362[/ATTACH]

Yea, JeanieG, you ifnished those blocks! I did not love Jewel, but I finished her...moving on! Good for you. Yea!:p

Jewel is an interesting pattern. It looks like a jewel too. Oh, you've used a lot of white for Jenny. Are you going to set the blocks in a color or white like in the book? Have you decided?

Me? Haven't really given it a lot of thought yet... I'm not sure I want them set on point like Ms. Hird's. What are you going to do with yours?

I'm setting them on point. lolol
I'm not using white, it will be various colors for the triangles. I'm not doing the triangles like in the book. I'm doing the blocks in strips with triangles. I sewed about a quarter of them, then decided I wanted to seam rip one of the triangle sides because I didn't buy enough to do the other 3 quarters, and I want all 4 quarters to match. Soooo... I stalled.

Can't quite envision that. Would love to see a photo!

Here is my Jenny & Jewell.

I'm only 1/2 done with my blocks but I'm going to finish them.

Soooo pretty, GrannyQ. Really love your "Jewel".

I love how you do each block and make them look so original, picture perfect! On a face book page, I would hit the 'love' button.

Here's Jenny and Jewel:
