    Beautiful blocks ladies! I have to redo B1 as my buttons are in a square Instead of doing that I remade M3, the first one was horrible and the second one is a keeper. By far not perfect but I'm happy with it!

    Love your blocks... you did the B-1 in reverse applique? I see in 'That Quilt' website it was done in reverse applique. I'm not sure I could do that. It looks great.

    These are my first four blocks. I am making two sets.....the ones on the right are my 'practice' blocks, and the ones on the left are my 'real' blocks for 'Jane Visits Pittsburgh.' Have more blocks, but haven't taken pictures yet.

    Default Week Two Blocks

    First set of three are for a Dear Jane using muslins and fabrics as close to her's as I can get. The second set of three are just using fabrics from my stash for a "Chocolate Dear Jane" made by Sandpat.

    Your blocks are great! I'm glad you said the reverse applique isn't too bad. I've never tried it before either so you are giving me a boost of confidence - Thanks!

    Thanks Judy, I followed the instructions on That Quilt. They were easier to understand than the ones on the DJ CD...plus she had pictures!

    Judy, I like your drawing for the A1 block. It looks spot-on ! I tried drawing it up in EQ but could not figure out how to post it so I took a picture of what was on the screen so it is a bit distorted. The question I have is that when I looked at the foundation piecing of it, it looked like a nightmare to get together. How are you putting yours together?

    TymeTo Shine, how did you get your circles so perfect? I have tried, but have't accomplished yet. I have really enjoyed looking at everyones blocks. They are all so beautiful.
