Okay; been "eating potato chips" like crazy. I have 29 done. The first batch I only pressed the final seam open; points look pretty good. Second batch I pressed the two center seams open; points don't look so good. See for yourself.

So I'll go back to pressing all seams to dark except final seam.

How is it possible that your blocks already look snugly? I love your scrappy colors. :)

Thank you so much for taking the time to show us this!!! It was very kind of you. They all look great- nice color choices.

Thanks, the collection is Origins by Moda. They are layer cakes and I have matching yardage for borders and backing. I can't wait to see how it all comes together. As I mentioned before this is for my DDs MIL who is also my bestest friend. She lives with DD and SIL in her own apartment over their garage. I am going to be busy doing Quilts for Kids at the same time so I want to get zooming on this. My QFK fabric I ordered is coming tomorrow, got some motorcycles, and surfing, I think.

That looks nice with the black.
I considered that but I have something else in mind for black so I went with the white on white.

You are well on your way to being done!
Using 10" blocks sure makes it go fast!
Very nicely done.

I going to be using the Moda Sunkissed charm packs. I think they are so pretty. Had to order some plain charm packs. Hope they get here today as I'm eager to get started. Looks like I'll have to play catchup from the start!!!
