Lol, perfect isn't a word I use in connection with my piecing. It's what I aspire to, but don't achieve. I am content with this one though.

Thank you you for your kind comments boomers!

I do hope to finish one more tonight and then that'll be it for a few weeks. It's about to get crazy here.

This is TravelingGramma's block. It doesn't have your falling leaves but it does have movement. Hope you can use it.

This is what I wish I could do without appliqué the feeling of movement it's like a little vortex and I love it.

Ya it's pretty damn perfect chalk that one up to a very positive learning experience unlike what many of my "well I learned what doesn't work" moments.


If I missed one I'm sorry there were a lot of posts to see I am once again impressed and thankful to be part of this group.

Here's Jaba's block from me. It's a Lover's Knot block from Quilter's Cache. I toyed with the idea of fussy cutting a flower for the inside block but it caused the focus to be on the flower instead of on the fabric. So I kept the center light so the beautiful flower's in Jaba's fabric would stay the focus.

drat... just saw something that needs to be fixed. seam ripper here I come. See how tall that triangle on the right is...? What happened to my 1/4", lol. Sorry, Jaba. It still isn't done. The good news is that this particular pattern didn't use up all of your F8 so you'll be getting some back from me.
