So far I've made two 6-1/2" sets and two 12-1/2" sets (plus the itty bitty 3-1/2"-ers for the side swap). Not sure yet what sizes my remaining two sets will be.

Oh muse and sew those are wonderful! I really think your work rocks moonrise. I wish I could help you out with the steam a seam, but I only have one package and half of that is gone. I just got the other one for the applique blocks too.

My first set is started and is going pretty slow. "~( A spider block that should finish up to be 91/2".

Thanks for the answers, I usually make a 12 1/2 block because they work up quickly. I have a great paper piecing pattern that makes up a 12 1/2 inch block that I think will look great in the candy corn colors. I am going to work on that one tonight. I will post pics when I get done.

Set #5. One more to go! The background is actually purple. For some reason, my camera turns purple into blue.

This is one attempt at my paper piecing block, notice the corners look like candy corn.When I saw this pattern, I know it was perfect. Just one question, any hints on getting the points in the middle to match up. Three points match perfectly and one is off a little.

Lstew2212 your candy corn is really cute! I'm not positive how to help with the point. Maybe someone has a suggestion.
Moonrise, love the kitties. Fun block.

This turned out so cute! When I have made this block I have pressed my seams open and used pins through the seams to match up. If you did this and still had trouble I don't know what else to suggest. Just thought of a solution, sew a button over the intersection!
