Very pretty, Battle Ax! I, too, admire the neutral.

I decided not to fix my 'boo boo' in my Constellation block, and keep it as a humility block. My husband loved that idea!

I don't think anyone would have noticed if you hadn't pointed it out. When it is all put together it will be even less noticeable. It's a beautiful block and points matched nicely. I wouldn't change it either.

Thank you lawsonmugs. I have collected several old quilts from flea markets over the years, and they all have stuff like that going on in them. We all need to stay humble! :D

Lovely block 4 sewbizgirl - what mistake !!! Brenda Papadakis (who wrote the Dear Jane book ) said - "if you can't see a problem when riding by on a galloping horse - don't worry about it !!
Some really pretty blocks coming along - I have so much Christmas fabrics in my stash I decided to use it here. Civil War fabric is not so easy to find here in the UK and what there is can be expensive.

It will be unique and pretty in Christmas fabrics. I love red and green together. It's classic color combination for quilts and used a lot for them historically.
Here's my block for the week!

Love it, Givio... I like the burgs you subbed for the browns.
