Ladies, you need to post on the New Quilting Bee, February 2017, please...

Second Blocki
 

Okay here's my 2nd January block, had some problems because I cut a piece only half wrong! lol Leave it to me to complicate things...anyhow here is my block...

Hugs,
Betty

Isn't it funny how depending on the material the block looks so different. I say this all the time and yet each time I am still amazed. I looked at your block and went into instant panic mode thinking I didn't make that block. Really nice selection of fabrics.

Thanks AnngelAnne, actually I had a different fabric where the orange is now and it looked horrible! lol In fact I grabbed the orange not thinking about using it in my block last month! So I put it away so I wouldn't grab it again.

Hugs,
Betty

I joined the quilting bee in June and so far I have made 3 blocks that are 10 1/2" finished. Any ideas on how I can enlarge this pattern to 10 1/2"?

Hi Fabric...are you referring to the July blocks, which are posted in a new July thread? While the directions say they are for 10" blocks, that means they are 10 1/2" before they are sewn into a quilt using 1/4" seams (when sewn with 1/4" seams the completed, sewn-in block will be 10"). Hope that helps.

Thanks Chasezzz...couldn't have said it better myself..lolo

I made my block for January yesterday and I printed the block instructions for February. Hopefully I will get caught up if I do 1 block a week.[ATTACH=CONFIG]575678[/ATTACH]

I finally felt strong enough to make my Auntie's Puzzle block yesterday. My computer crashed last week. I got it back yesterday and now I have to download all of my software again. It is very frustrating. I will try to post my photos this weekend.
