Love the fabrics you are using. Your blocked turned out wonderful!

Lots of little pieces, so hard to make everything come together. Great job.

The block looks good. Great Job.

Wonderful. I couldn't do that good at 3 years, so 3 cheers!!!! Beautiful fabrics I might add, and I love civil war fabrics.

You should be very proud...you did a good job!

looks really good to me too!

Wow, thanks everyone for the awesome feedback! I did 4 setting blocks last night (easy) and started block 4 (also easy). I looked as far ahead as block 6 and so far, the one I posted on this thread was by far the hardest. I will either post the completed top OR post other really hard blocks as I come to them.

Your block looks fine to me. Uou did a great job.

Beautiful job! You have inspired me to get busy on my Civil War blocks...

Kate, you did a terrific job on that block. I get those as a block of the month. That one was by far the hardest block I have ever done also. I got the fabric and the directions to make the 12 half-square triangles with that block. I found them as hard to do as that block. It is not easy sewing a diagonal 14" block. I had the most trouble marking it. even with a long ruler, the fabric wanted to slip while marking it. I tried the red pencil and finally settled on the miracle markers by miraclechalk.com. Because I didn't refer back to the finished quilt picture, I just cut the navy fabric/floral clusters with no regard to how I cut them. As a result, the clusters do not line up evenly with seam and they look wonky. At least to me they do.
