This is my very first block, to be honest it's my first time using a sewing machine. Had to read the manual to figure out how to use the machine thread broke about a dozen times. 4 hours later and I'm a half inch short on both sides. Oh well its only practice probably wont even put it in a quilt.

Good job! And such fun fabric.

Joe that is a perfect block , great work keep up the good work :thumbup:

WOW! I think this is an awesome block! You are doing a great job. Keep up the great work.

Love this fun block, keep going, you must put it into a quilt, I can imagine it completed and being enjoyed by a special child.

That's beautiful!Who wouldn't want a pillow like that for their
bed or favorite chair?-Or pillowcase.It's your *first*?Wow.

Looks so bright and cheery, ready for its' friends. Keep it. It is the start of your stash. You can put it together with something else later.

Thanks for the encouragement everybody now that I look at it again its only short by 1/4" on each side it's 12" instead of 12 1/2" I'm sure i can figure a way to make it fit in a quilt.

Nice start! I think you have a knack for quilting! Make more!

it looks great for a first block! if you are not sure where to use it yet save it for a sampler or scrappy that you can do later
