Here is the first blocks I put together yesterday.

Then they will be squared up the the finished sizes.
So Whatcha think swappers? They both are 9 1/2 x 12 /12 blocks.
The other one I am showing the fabrics I chose for the candle block. It will finish up as a 12 1/2 inch square block.

Just playing around not sure I want to do this paper piece yet, takes awhile to do since no experience at them...LOL
But thought I would share it and think about it...
So what do you think?
If I do decide to do these the extra's will come in a bag so you can add them yourself!

Suppose to have a big button over to the left for part of his hat, but I don't have one yet... Maybe a white pom-pom...
