    Looks good to me. I found it tricky putting the corners together on the braid too.

    My BOM's are going batiks. This looks a bit wild, doesn't it? I turned the flash off on the camera, so it looks a little darker than it really is. I am now working on the Bird of Paradise block.

    I just realized that my corner is put on wrong. Hmmmm, don't know how I managed that one.

    All of your blocks look great & I think that braid border would be great on wallhangings, as well as tablerunners & placemats. Keep up the great blocks everyone.

    I don't see where there are any imperfections. Your block looks great. Are you planning to do more? or simply join it with the block from previous months.
