    I know that you would be able to do it. I thought that also but just finished making one of her blocks (used half square triangles and boston blocks) and am getting ready to do another. Just look at her tutorials on how to do the blocks and start out slowly (perhaps with half square triangles). If *I* can do it, I know that you can too.

    Thank you both for the encouragement. I may have to play with some scraps and see what I can do. The blocks are really lovely.

    Here it is! I finished Shelley's Block. She asked for Stella (week 7). I had to unstitch it a couple of times. It will go out to her tomorrow. It needs a little squaring up but otherwise I did it.

    I sent Shelley a picture of it and she said I could post this.

    Yes it is. I've had it for a bit so thought this was a good time to use it up.

    I'm just getting into the batiks. I doubt they will ever be a big thing for me but I do like some of them. so many of them are just too big a print for me.

    That is true but this one more mottled. I love them for their flexibility in working with a lot of fabric. I didn't think I would like working with them but when you are cutting them into smaller units you don't seem some of those big prints anymore.

    I bought a variety of batiks I thought I could use to make Boston Blocks with. One set of fabrics are animal prints. I am curious to see how that works out. I haven't sat down and played with them yet. They may just end up in a Doll Quilt for the swap down the road! Somebody made a DQ using animal prints and it was really cute. Gave me ideas!

    Oh the possibilities!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
