We've all been there and it's not a fun place.

So yep yep...have to take it back to the drawing board to rip rip again.

Libster, your pinwheel heart block for Joanelizbay is beautiful! I've never seen one like it before.
TG, fun piece for Brandie. And Maija's star is lovely.
Muse, nice block to show off Joanelizbay's fabric.

And I made the lone star for Marija. The color is off in the photo.

I can imagine myself cutting and recutting this one, jclinganrey. I love the contrast between the fabrics and i just realized it's like seeing Saturn's rings repeated on edge. Nice!

Good Morning Ladies..gee whiz..miss coming on board for a day or two and what beautiful blocks ya'all have made!!!
Love seeing all this great talent and such different styles off blocks..so that makes me sooo glad I an in this swap with you!!! Thanks for my blocks so far and I love them all. Talk about ripping out blocks..well I am trying to learn to paper piece and yesterday I probably ripped out half the time I was sewing and when I finally thought that I had it done right, when I went to put the block together had to rip out again but I think I finally got at least that block right..I don't know if I will ever be able to get PP right but will try try again..I wish I could figure out how to change up a pattern..I have a 10 inch pattern I would love to make 12 inch..how would I go about doing that?? All sewing I do is self-taught so any help would be greatly appreciated

Could you maybe make it 10 inches and then add a two inch border to it? I don't know what pattern you're using, so I don't know if that would work or not. It is one possibility. Now Kass can probably tell you how to do it mathwise. That just ain't my forte though! LOL
