    OK Girls THis is the squirrel blocks. I kinda think it looks like a squirrel flying a leaf kite ... LOL!

    You like it? I don't know why the background is showing kinda blue, but it is a mint green. I have attached the eye bead onto my name tag so you won't have to look for one. It is 9 1/2 x 9 1/2 square. Honestly... I think it looks much nicer in person.

    It's a good thing I am finally done with blocks for another swap. I can now concentrate on this one. Your blocks Red, are causing me to think fall and it's not even summer yet! LOL! Super cute squirrel!

    Oh my GOODNESS!!! Red, your blocks are some of the cutest I've ever seen!!! I'm so excited for this! I have lots and lots of precuts so some of my fabrics can't be prewashed...is that okay? Also, can I use white for some of my backgrounds?

    Thank you rhonda, ms. grace and honespun! I loved making this set of squirrels.

    Lol rhonda... I know what you mean about thinking fall. I have about a million cute images running around in my head. It is hard to choose my next set to make. It is between a cornicopia or a basket of pumpkins and gourds. Well, we will see how this comes together.

    Homespun... Yes you can use the precuts. It is in the main page under the rules if you want to read it. OK? Have fun with your blocks!

    :~)

    You just have to let me have that little guy. I just adore it. He will go great in my office where this will hang. I feed the little squirrels here and so this would just kick the boss in the pants.
