Default Finally working on a SAS

Here is my first attempt at a SAS block. I think I’ll try to pace myself to x number of blocks a week otherwise I feel overwhelmed and tend to procrastinate.

Nice job on all those points! One tip I'll pass along that I learned the hard way with my SAS--if you want that circular look once all the blocks put together you will need to not double the outside diamond & corner units--otherwise it just comes out looking more like a star quilt. I ended up having to rip out lots of seams!

Looking good so far. Good idea to not let your mind get overwhelmed.

Great start! I agree with shorttimer. Think of the diamond & small SIS as sashing & corner stones.
