For moon, the background looks white but it is definitely a light blue. Sorry you will lose the point on the top left when you sew them together
aunt 59 very pretty whirlygig

ibex, it is the 6 1/2 quilt in a day triangle square up ruler. For sale on Amazon, Craftsy, esty, quilt in a day websites.
Also, I moved needle over 2 notches, and my block came out a smidgen over 12 1/2. Whew!

Pretty deer block, Terri.
Ibex, I am not left handed, and I use a 45mm blade. I have never tried a 60! My cutter is just the straight handled Olfa cutter. Not sophisticated at all. I have a Go cutter but don't use it much. I just prefer hand rotary cutting.
Annt59, glad you found the 'sweet spot' for your seam allowances!

Love the deer block! That's awesome! 
I think I'm almost caught up reading the board. Got some feedback to leave for a couple of other swaps, eat breakfast, and get caffeinated, then I'll be ready to make some more blocks.
Cell phone service was so weird in the mountains. Outside our camper, it would say 4G with 4 bars, but when we'd try to use our phones, it would suddenly drop to 3G with barely 1 bar, or 1X, neither of which could load the board (or anything else). We'd move around to try to find the 4G signal again, but it kept disappearing. It's like it was teasing us! LOL! Inside the camper, the best we could get was 1X.
Here are a few favorite pics. They're mostly from Big South Fork Park in Tennessee, and some are from Daniel Boone National Forest in Kentucky. The little dog-like critter is a coyote pup! We thought that's what it was, but confirmed it with the park rangers. They said we were very lucky to have seen it, because normally they stay well-hidden. Cute little booger! I love how big its feet are. <3 I shrunk down the pics significantly so hopefully they aren't too large. There are a lot more pics (hundreds!), but if anyone wants to see them, I can PM you a link to my Facebook page. I also (finally!) have pics of our cargo trailer camper conversion that I'll post later. That's where my future deer quilt will be going.

Moonrise, beautiful pictures of where you are staying!
Terri, pretty dear block you made for Moonrise!
I'm right handed and use an Olfa or Fiscars 45mm rotary cutter. I took a class at Martelli's in Pensacola several years ago and they had their ergonomic rotary cutters for us to try. I didn't enjoy using it and was told I would love it once I got used to it. I didn't purchase one and don't have a problem using the regular cutters.
