Lots of little pieces, so hard to make everything come together. Great job.

Wow, thanks everyone for the awesome feedback! I did 4 setting blocks last night (easy) and started block 4 (also easy). I looked as far ahead as block 6 and so far, the one I posted on this thread was by far the hardest. I will either post the completed top OR post other really hard blocks as I come to them.

Kate, you did a terrific job on that block. I get those as a block of the month. That one was by far the hardest block I have ever done also. I got the fabric and the directions to make the 12 half-square triangles with that block. I found them as hard to do as that block. It is not easy sewing a diagonal 14" block. I had the most trouble marking it. even with a long ruler, the fabric wanted to slip while marking it. I tried the red pencil and finally settled on the miracle markers by miraclechalk.com. Because I didn't refer back to the finished quilt picture, I just cut the navy fabric/floral clusters with no regard to how I cut them. As a result, the clusters do not line up evenly with seam and they look wonky. At least to me they do.
