Have you seen my confusion method or the crumb block method that is posted on here? You can sew your little pieces into bigger blocks and do a crazy type block. It uses them up quite nicely!

So I redid my block 1 as I decided to go with 6" blocks. Whew...such small pieces. Here is my block 1 and 2. I also had a time with the middle but I didn't tack and will surely try tacking next time. I did enjoy block 2.

Great job Ellen! They look fabulous.
I pulled the middle apart on my block #2 to try tacking those point and resewing... and I poked a small hole in one of my fabrics! Yikes! Now I have a slightly larger job to fix it. I put it down and started on my Iona block so that I wouldn't get too frustrated. Hopefully I'll have a block to join yours soon!

I like the brown, I think when you get them all together you'll like it. I'm just about done with mine too. just have to sew two seams, take a picture and I'll post. But stopped to eat lunch first. Be back in a while. Katie
