The one you call crayon box we call graham cracker in our Baby Bee Quilting group. We use it all the time for children's shelter quilts and they are really cute.

I really like the 10 Minute Block. But never heard of this one before. Are they hard to construct or is there a secret to putting them together?

These 10-minute blocks are very easy once you do the first one. It is amazing how it goes together and how large the blocks become when opened. Here is my experiment quilt top which I will be machine quilting tonight. Just think what it will look like when I make a gift with quilter's fabrics! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZbTHlGGKMPM

Here is my 10 minute quilt block quilt. I did not use sashing. Someone on the QB made one in the QAYG method and that looked really neat too. I used 5" squares for mine and it went together really fast. The picture doesn't have the center block edges sewn down yet. I was going to do it as part of the quilting, and then decided against it, so I went back and sewed them all down.

This was the beginning of it all......

#1....my practice block, this started the ball rolling

#2....made these 6, haven't done anything more with them as yet
but discovered using the different colors for the bow tie

#3....made this one and it was one of three that I used for my
little runner.

They are addictive.......to say the least !!!!!

I know they are addictive aren't they. Looks like a lot of work for a little time. Great job.
