I love your fabric! I think 45 minutes would be much faster than I could do it! I struggle with reading patterns!

By all means, stay out of bed! This is darling!

It may have taken 45 min. but it turned out great, and I love the fresh green and white. And I bet your next quilt block will go faster, and you'll get to the point you are doing it even faster than 10 min. Once the fabric is cut, you can roll through them. Is this one for you or are you still working on those 30 quilts?

The only color I didn't get was the blues. Right now WM has them marked down to $2.00/yd.

I needed a break from the charity quilts so I thought I would give this a try. It doesnt have an owner yet. LOL!

The first time I made one, it took me that long, as well. It seemed that I had forgotten to pin during the one little step.....and that was the difference... :oops:
Now that I know what to expect, I am working much more quickly.
By thw way, I think your fabrics are great....sunny and bright.....

I love your butterfly material! Just like anything else, sometimes it takes a few to make to get it down pat.

cj, I just love your fabric choices. Keep going, it will go faster. My first three blocks went pretty much the same as yours, rippit rippit alot for me. It went faster when I stuck with it.After my first block I put it away for a week, so then it was like starting new each time. It will be so worth the effort.

I like block pattern and I know what you mean and feel. I made a 10 min. table runner 'once', it took me 2 hours.

Not a good morning for me to try something new. If it could go wrong then went wrong. I lost count of how many times I had to take the seams out. Over and over and over again!
Not sure if I like the 10 minute block or not.
I was really hoping that these fabric prints would make a nice 10 minute block quilt. I will have to think about it.
:? :? :?

Thank you for looking.
I had the same problem, but it got better as I made more. I like your colors.
