QNS I should be doing it your way and I would've hopefully avoided my mistake (see above). Can't wait to see yours.

Dublb does such a great job complimenting each block...I will just echo her sentiments.

Everyone has done such a great job. I can't wait to see some more.

So far 14 have been posted. What was the unofficial count last time? 50 some? Lots more eye candy to come!

Success this morning, got the machine threaded finally! Challenge of impaired vision...getting the thread in the right channel before I can sew. Onward! Have a great day.

Yes, Cindy, I will be happy if mine turns out as good as yours. Lots of beautiful work here and beautiful colors, looking forward to seeing more. It does take a mite of time for each slice/section of the 'pizza' block...at least for me. Measurements from Mirabelle really truly helps. Thank you Mirabelle.

You are so right QNS! The measurements are a Godsend. What I started last night was to sew all 6 sections at a time and. So I'm repeating the same step 6 times. No all my slices didn't get done but I think this is going faster than if I did each slice before moving onto the next.

CindyA your block was the first thing that greeted me when I opened the thread and all I could say was "Oh". The block reminds me of calla lilies. You are going to have a beautiful set of place mats. You might want to run out and buy clear dishes and eat no food from them.
