Dubib....what is frog stitching? In my first and what I thought my last attempt at this block I put one of the outside strips on upside down. I didn't even notice it until I started to post my pictures.

Rip it... rip it... rip it! Ripping out seams!! Yuck!
I'm so sorry!

I just had to come in and say "hello" to you all! I really enjoyed last year's journey with many of you on the FWQ! I made a committment to put that top together before joining another huge block committment, so am not in this one, but I was sorely tempted when I saw all the beautiful blocks you guys have been making! Hope you don't mind a 'drop in' once in a while! :)

Thank you for the kind comments. Yes, I do PP and can't, for the life of me, do it by the templates....ergo, no "Beauty" block....LOL!

Hi Ronda, it was the comraderie of this group that enticed me to join. I'm a little late, but am catching up and sure glad I'm on board. My FWS has taken a big back seat!!

Ladies ALL....I can't sort out all of you, but I can say to all of you "I LOVE YOUR BLOCKS!" Each and every one is so different yet all the same. I really enjoy seeing what everyone is doing.....You all inspire me to "keep at it". Thank you, all, for sharing your work.

Jan and Honchey - those geese are sooooo cute! Great blocks everyone! I've got mine cut out, just need time to get them sewn together!

This is how I did Beauty. I liked it so much that I'm doing all of my blocks this way. Hope it helps.

In the discussions we discovered that freezer paper doesn't do well with laser printers, so I hope you don't have a laser printer.

"I see", says the blind woman! This may be something for me to try as well. Thanks for sharing the great tutorial.
