I certainly have enjoyed my first train ride. I love reading all the posts and seeing all the pics. I have been moving pretty slowly this week, which is rare for me, I usually have the clue finished by lunch on Saturday! Here are this
weeks blocks (and all the others so far!).

................................silently thinking to myself.....I do hope Judy is referring to four corner blocks for the border..........or maybe there is a friendship star with a block in the center......so we have 20 divide that by four...five...no, wrong.

Nana love the crispness of the blue and yellow.
Sunlit, me too on the corner blocks, I want to finish it, but i don't want to, if you know what I mean.
This went fast. Seems like it was yesterday that we started this journey together. Such a fun ride it's been.
Thanks to everyone for the upbeat thoughts and encouragement to all of us.
I'm still waiting for the homemade chocolate wine. I guess that's our disembarkation drink.

I think I'm missing a step. Can anyone post the message #'s so I can look them all up again? Sorry but I get so messed up with everything going on at the moment. Thanks in advance. I think it may be the last one. Briefly what I have are the 2 different 1/2 square triangle (2 different steps) the star block and that's it.

A special note for Judy and others also. When doing the flying geese units I did the no waste technique which make 4 at a time using 1 5 1/4" square and 4 2 7/8" squares. You can google no waste flying geese and get printed instructions and you can also find a tutorial for it on you tube. I started making them this way quite some time ago and have done it this way ever since. If you have ever had problems try it. Plus you don't have to cut off those triangles and throw them away. I know some will bulk at 7/8" but my 12 1/2" Omni Grid ruler has a marking for those pesky 8th's that make it no harder then cutting 3/4". Oh and when I finished my geese units I had to trim not even 1/16th off so you can see there is little to no waste trimming them up and that is if you have to as most of mine needed no trimming at all. Okay I'll be quiet now.
