Here are three more finished. Libster, yours is Aunt Eliza's Star, which is an Ohio Star Variation; Jclinganrey, yours is Calico Puzzle; NanaKathy, yours is Eccentric Star.
Here's your laugh for the day: A few years ago, I bought a quarter inch foot, put it on my machine, stitched, and it wasn't a quarter inch. I could not figure out what the problem was, so I put it away. Fast forward to Saturday, I posted a picture on the National Quilter's Circle Challenge FB page of my finished Challenge block and how close I was to being finished with it when the bobbin thread ran out. Another quilter suggested I move my needle as my fabric wasn't covering the feed dogs. Face Palm moment....Move the needle....that also solved the quarter inch problem. If I line the needle up with the red line, voila, a neat quarter inch seam.

molly ~ love all your blocks
Kass ~ wow again
Block for bibliostone, best I could do :-) It looks a bit off in the picture to me. If I need to take out the applique at the top and put in one like the other three please let me know, it won't be a problem.

It is adorable the way it is! Don't worry about the middle, those little Mickey's do not go all the same direction anyway.
