    Wow, I should get an award for this one, not for looks, but for the amount of time it took to make it. I have worked on this all day long, sewing, ripping out, sewing upside down, you name it.

    But here it is at last. Not a great job, but done finally. Glad I don't have to do a whole quilt this way. I wouldn't live long enough. LOL

    Very nice block! Worth the time and effort. I think that there have been comments earlier on regarding the patterns not being consistent? So well done for persevering. It has turned out great! :thumbup:
