    i am really stuck on Kass's block. Want to make something detailed but when I look at the patterns with stripes it just doesn't work. Will just have to keep searching Pintrest
    Terriamn, quilt block searching is better than shopping!

    Beautiful

    My little peeps look pretty sad against that work of art!
    Your peeps are adorable. Paper piecing can make you look like a rock star, matching crazy hard points. lol

    Love it NanaKathy55, it will be perfect. Thank you so much. I'm looking forward to putting this together, like a little "ISpy" zoo Our new little girl will love it to cuddle with.

    How cute!

    My original thought was to make a Dresden Plate, using the stripey borders as fussy-cut blades (alternating with white blades), and an animal in the center, but there wasn't quite enough of the borders to make the blades. I even looked on eBay to see if anyone was selling the fabric, thinking I'd get a FQ, but I couldn't find any. I think Jaba wins the award for "Most Challenging Fabric"! he he I'm just teasing. The fabric really IS cute, and I think it'll make an adorable quilt.

    P.S. I'll be sending both of the blocks; not just the second one. Feel free to use either or both.
