I did that last boom then included some of the blocks in my finished quilt.

Making last years BH ORL mystery taught me to sew, starch, press, trim, sew, starch, press, trim, repeat, repeat, repeat....
I recall seeing a previous boomer show her 'trial blocks' made to ensure she had the accuracy down before cutting into other's fabrics. That will likely be me this Boom
BTW - I will be over the moon happy with any block style that you make for me!

My local quilt shop has asked me to teach a class, I have been working on the finished project we will be sewing, a 3D cube table runner. And I think we can get a few place mats from the same piece of fabric they will need to complete the table runner.

I wish I could take that class. I know I’d learn a lot.

I just adored the chickens that Hav4boys posted a few days ago. So I too decided to work on these BOM chickens from Fat Cat designs. Here are January and the February blocks.[ATTACH=CONFIG]607960[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]607961[/ATTACH]
