I want to make them but I am so scared of messing them up. *Sigh* Am I alone in being afraid to make certain types of blocks or shapes in their blocks? I should say that I am not a new quilter either. I have been quilting since ’95. So, yeah. Sixteen years and not a triangle in anything I have ever made. LOL

I had a problem with triangles but found the MOST glorious material that I just couldn't make anything but stars!! To cut a long story short .... I practiced and practiced and now have a quilt to be extremely proud of.
But circles are as scary as hell!! Oh yeah, PETRIFIED of FMQing!!)
I am practicing with turtles for my soon to be grandchilds cot quilt!! I am attaching a practice block!!
