    But it didn't match the colors in my Feb one, and since I want to make a quilt out of all the blocks when I'm done, I want them to be somewhat alike in coloring.....
    So I did it in new colors. I love this one.
    I love the colours you chose for the coordinated blocks. this is going to make a great quilt!!!! I like the first Jan block too. YOur work sure doesn't look like a beginner to me!
    Big hug for doing the Feb PP block!!!


    I found the directions to this block to be very difficult. I'm a real visual person (and did I mention I'm a beginner???) so I had some issues. Once I figured it out I was fine. Along with the tutorial for the Jan block that was posted (thank you!).

    I'm also posting a picture of the 2 blocks together.

    I finally took the time to sit down and start my blocks. Here is my January "Sunflower". I had to rip here and there but I finally got it. I couldn't believe that this block gave me such a problem. Hope you enjoy it.
