    the original name was Rainbow I've renamed it to I $%#@*^ hate rainbows. [ATTACH=CONFIG]547244[/ATTACH]
    Oh no! I am so sorry it caused you so much distress. I love it though. It has lots of greys some orange and white in just the right proportions and it looks modern. Loving it. Was it a paper piece block? I probably do not want to try it though since you had so much trouble. It will sure add to the quilt.

    It's not your fault and I became determined to make that damn block It is not PP thats still something I want to learn this is where I found it as you can see the original does not have a border. Apparently they didn't have the same issues I did. hahaha And yes I printed the 12 inch size. I'm glad you like it.

    Well I think in my case I think the grey border added to the block. Great job! Thanks. I showed it to DH and he liked the block too.

    Wow, I can't believe that wasn't paper pieced, that is a perfect block to learn paper piecing on, simple straight forward design and sewing lines. The working backwards thing on pictures or complicated geometrics can be frustrating and confusing at first especially.

    It's that bitter sweet moment when I have finished all my blocks

    Jaba here is your owl condo when I first saw your fabric I saw a tree with owls peaking out. I couldn't figre out how to convey a tree using only brown so they are living in a condo instead....I think they like it less yard work to keep up on [ATTACH=CONFIG]547269[/ATTACH]

    I like your interpretation. I had the same thought but could not figure out how to do it by only adding brown so did something else. I think you did a great job. The block is very cute!
