Mirabelle...I love your outside setting fabric. Do you know the fabric line?
DHMom...those browns are so warm and inviting.
Jillngo...I love how you've used colors. Really beautiful.

Wow, love all the blocks that have been posted. DogHouseMom, I am not a fan of working with browns but I LOVE, LOVE,LOVE your blocks.

Your block is just way too purdy!!! That yellow just pops & they all look great tagether!!!
I tried! :D

I AGREE!! I love the fabrics you have chosen.

OMG-JNJ that is a gorgeous block, and they look so good together. Can't wait to see more.

Here is my block 3. Again I did not like the big center so I added the lime green to pull from the green "arrows".

Caroline...what great colors. Your background is such a great blender!

What a beautiful trio Caroline S. I really like how you are doing your centers, and I just may 'copy' your ideas for the big centers. I love how you used the lemon green in the center and on the outside, and your background is perfect with all the blocks so far..

GGal this is what is on the selvedge edge, I didn't realise it was so long ago. DD and I both loved this fabric so we bought the whole range, there is a border print, large and small print, a check and we bought about 6 tone on tones to match so this is what I am using for Spike..

It is so fun to see all these gorgeous blocks being PP'd. They will make stunning quilts.

OMGosh!!!Talk about happy blocks! They are so lovely tagether!:thumbup:

Thanks for the kind words everyone. My color palette was determined by my dining room, golds, browns and creams. I can't wait to finish the set and decorate the dining table!

Caroline your blocks are seeeew beautiful.

I did my a little different, but it turned out okay. I need to take a photo then will post. Just got home from hunting and took the block with me to work on. Cold wet and icy was the week away. Heading to Arizona sooooon!!!!!!!!!

dog house... you have some beautiful blocks. Cant wait to see all of them put together.

Oh my what lovely color combinations! Again so many ways to put these together!

mirabelle--2006 fabric isn't old--it's standing the test of time!

Such great eye candy :) Thanks all!!

here's my October 1 block. I had to take it apart & re-sew 3 times and still didn't manage to get all my points lined up- finally gave up & decided to accept it as it is- I may remake one later- but for now I've moved on to something else. I sure love everyone else's blocks so far this month!

Your hard work shows but I know those centers can be such buggers! I finally started sewing from the middle point and am getting better results. It's easier to get the bulk on the right side of the needle so it doesn't get pushed under it.

Where can I find this pattern for the log cabin cone? Thanks.

So many great blocks!! I'm loving the bright colors! Wish they went with my decor :(

There is nothing wrong with your blocks, DHM. Of course, opposites of the color wheel would add touches of color in your decor, but there is nothing wrong with the color of your blocks. Love those warm inviting colors that make one feel welcome and warm and 'at home' comfortable. Many of used blue and oranges together, opposites on the color wheel which makes sense and is colorful and nice. Each depicts a bit of the quilter, just please continue to do it "your way"....as many of the rest of us are doing. Mine is 'almost' ready to post...and it is different.:o

DHM- I love your warm and inviting earth tones they are also very soothing.

Oh how I love looking at all of the new blocks posted! I Can not decide on a favorite but there are some wonderful color combinations and a lot of talent out there! Doghouse Mom Love your browns and neutrals, CarolineS wow my daughter works in Spanaway small world and Love your blocks. I think that this is my most favorite block that I have done so far. Very interesting to see all of the yellow and blue combinations that were done.

roserips:very striking, I love your background Material

great tip! I am going to try starting in the center & working my way out to each side on the next one! thinking about it that makes perfect sense now!:thumbup:
