Thank you SOOOO much for your kind words!!! I am STILL learning the whole Paper Piecing technique, and this block shows a few of my learning steps (don't look too closely at the points, please!). It is FAR from "perfect", but I am really glad you like it!!

Here is the picture.

Okay - Here are all of my turtle blocks & my halloween blocks:

I still need 6 turtle blocks made with turtle fabric, and 1 turtle block made in "other" ways (applique, piecing, etc) -- if you want to trade for one of these LET ME KNOW!! If not - I have turtle fabrics in the BOOM 5 swap and can use those to finish this quilt

I'm also doing the halloween swap - I'll get 24 blocks back there, so I'm pretty much done with this theme too.


So I have decided on two new themes:

1) ANY block, shades of brown and gold. -- I will auction this finished quilt off to help my school. (our colors are brown and gold, our mascot is the Monarch (he's a lion))

2) This block: http://www.psiquilt.com/2010/03/pinw...block-six.html with solid backgrounds (any color) and printed/patterned geese (any color). This is one of my top three block favorites.

=)

Anyone want some extra swaps?

Cnolan-those are awesome. I so want to do paper piecing. I'm too afraid to though!! You did a great job. Your points are right on!

Jetnica-wow!!! Love them!

Update - I have a swap for a "other" turtle block. :)

Anyone want to make a block with turtle fabrics or a block in one if the new themes?

:)
