It took me two days to make two of these blocks--they are 20" finished. I still have to do two border blocks half that size. This block is for a raffle quilt and this is just my contribution--others are doing the same with the purples and cream colors. It is a Pam Bono pattern.

just one block

I'm impressed! That is such an expensive looking design and colors! Your work is always so beautiful.

The quilt will be beautiful. You are lucky to only have to make 2 blocks. Just think how long it would take you to make 2 or 3 dozen of them.
