Thanks sewbizgirl! I think you are right the block would work well for autograph quilt...but I am using scraps and only had enough for this block. I am thinking I will sash these with black and make a small quilt by the end of the year.

I finally found the time to make the first block. I may have to remake it cause it came out just a tad wonky. But I like how it came out.
I have the scenery fabric it two color ways. The other one has warm colors but I think they will look good together if I end up using both.

QueenB, I like that change in the block.
Sharongn, the greens and blues look soothing together.
I started the block but am putting it away until tomorrow. I’ve not used this method to make flying geese. It did not turn out great. I like trying new things....don’t know until I try.....but now I know. I’m going to come back to it tomorrow and use the method I’ve used before. Or maybe I’ll try to disassemble and reassemble and see if I get better results. I hate wasting fabric.

Sewbiz,
I decided to play catchup and would like to join the OSBOM. I finally found the details and decided to be surprised by another mystery quilt! My first one was the Mary Mahem News Year Day one. I am not familiar with sites like this so I will do my best to figure out how to post - just using quick reply. This week I am busy finishing deconstructing 2 quilts and putting them back together -- I am not the professionals you all are but hope to learn some new techniques.

hi Givio, your Julie's blocks are pretty! on the first one she did the same thing I did and put the top rectangle upside down. I noticed mine after I pressed it. Ooopsies.
