Here are the pics of my blocks for this week. E 8 is fairly straightforward, J 8, J 11 and J 12 all have some hand applique on them, but nothing I don't think that hasn't already cropped up with previous blocks. I had more trouble over the triangle than anything else. I'll try to draw a diagram of what I did, if you give me a bit of time.

How silly can you get? I completely forgot that I took some pics of this triangle as I was doing it, so here they are. As you can see from my diagram, I added a couple of little seams in the middle. (I must have known this one wouldn't be particularly easy). I am sure there are some other ways of doing that middle section without the extra seams, but I couldn't think of any at the time.

Drat, I can't turn the pic around, sorry

Great stuff, Retro. They are looking good.

Yours are wonderful, Lesley. That triangle looks like it could be tough...thanks for taking the time to do a tute. Maybe someday I'll try one...are they as addictive as the blocks??

Exactly Retro - just the same, and if they can be, some of them are even more of a challenge. I did LS 1 recently and it was a stinker. (I will qualify that, I couldn't do it the way the pattern is shown in the book, or with the software, but by the time I had put in a few extra seams, it was just about doable).

Lacelady & retrogirl02...Grrrreat blocks!

Here are mine - I agree with Lacelady, that triangle was interesting, it took me a little while to decide how to finish it...I PP in three sections, finishing the small diamond in applique.

Beautiful job, Wilhelmina! The maze block looks fantastic in 3 colors.

I was just going to say the same thing. It reminds me of tartan designs. Your triangle looks great too. There are probably dozens of ways of doing it - the main thing is to get it done.
