    I've done my three, and looking forward to the others, as I have learnt more from your tutorials than any person or any book! I don't know if I'm up to 'designing' a block. I'm an Aries and not creative, but can follow instructions to the letter!
    Those solid colour fabrics are gorgeous! So useful..I was looking at my stash today and thinking that I should buy some plain fabrics to match a few of the fancy patterned fabrics that I have.

    Hi Leila, I was lagging behind a bit due to fabric dilemmas but I have stopped stropping and I have just finished the first 3 blocks.I am nearly finished the 4th block and I will upload it tomorrow. Thanks for all your easy to follow instructions, I am learning so many new techniques. I am really enjoying this now.
    By the way Thanks for the generous giveaway ... great fabric.
    Four fat quarters of Kona fabric is just what I need to spruce my blocks up.

    After a lot of ripping of seams, I got my bonus block done. Should have conjured up a simpler design, but I learned a lot during the construction. So, I guess that was a bonus, too! I will have it up on Flickr with the other three. :)

  70. AnonymousJuly 13, 2011 at 12:05 PM

    ALL FINISHED WITH THREE - but, as a beginner, I really didn't have an eye for the colors (using scraps and pieces) and my 9-patch don't look like little crosses and the churn dash turned out also confused. So right now I'm re-cutting the churn dash and tomorrow will re-cut the 9-patch and hopefully I'll figure this out. I think I need an additional tutorial that when the directions say "light" or "dark", they indicate whether the lights should be the same or different fabric and the same for the darks..for churn dash, for example, for the corners of the original I used two different lights, which meant that I only had two matching corners...and then I used a different light for the center....see what I mean? HELP!
