I discovered this block last year when I was looking for something to make for a very special SIL, I bought 4 colors but decided it looked better with just two. I gave my mom the other two and she made one for her sister. I think it was more the colors I chose because I really like these with 3 and 4 colors just as much as the ones with 2. I haven't seen an ugly yet!
Also I haven't seen a PINK one or a RED and GREEN one either!LOL

Love the black Annmarie! It really makes the cards pop! I may have to try one in black.

You did a great job on your blocks, I love your colors! Can't wait to see more of your blocks :D :D :D


Amma, you saw Eleanor Burns on Alex Anderson the other day, too? She was so terrific! I really really want to see a show that she's at. Don't you???


ALL of you have wonderfully beautiful, gorgeous, colorful blocks. I enjoyed this one, too. Now since I never see how off I am till I post it here, I'm gonna do it. lol

Hey, You All,
We're still alive but BUSY! :lol: My daughter asked for a couple of quilts for her husbands group to auction off at a fund raiser this holiday season. Mom and Auntie Marcella are busy making auction quilts and will return to this BOM stuff soon (I hope)!!! Yes, We'll share a picture just as soon as we can. My quilt is in one piece but Marcella is still re-arranging stuff and adding more to hers. :mrgreen:
