I like your fabrics, the blue center stripe really pulls it all together!

Thank you, I do mine a a thin foundation fabric, ( you don't have to use it) I put the piece of fabric in center and another on top, stitch a 1/4" seam and press, than do the other side and that you add a strip of fabric to each side till covered and trim, mine are 9 1/2" blocks.
