    Did you be any chance see the earlier post and picture from the person who used watercolor pencils and aloe vera gel to set the color? My personal opinion is that the watercolor technique might give you more options for using the blocks. Good luck. I'm jealous of your find.

    I have 5 of these blocks. I haven't figured out what to do with them either. I have thought of doing courthouse steps, square in a square, but haven't decided yet.

    Great find! I believe someone else here on the board came across a panel like that too in her travels. I hope she sees this post and makes a comment
