Some setting blocks:

and another block.

left to do before putting into a top:  9 more basket blocks and one more monthly block.

I did blocks 3 & 4.

The first block I completed turned out quite well.  Again, my pictures are fuzzy for some reason.

I also thought my second block came out ok.  I kept messing up on it, but nothing more than turned patches. 

Or so I thought.

Until I stacked them on top of one another to put them away…

That is a good 3/4” discrepancy in the block.  It measures less than 11” square.  I don’t know what happened.  I guess I will have to call The Fat Quarter Shop to see if I can get another block mailed to me.

Yea!  I just got these in the mail yesterday and they are already completed for the month!  I have also found that I should just redraw these in EQ and then print the templates to match up with my Marti Michell templates and not use their directions.  I tend to do much better with my own way of doing this than following other’s directions.

On to another project today – can I get caught up with my 2009 designer mystery bom?  We shall see.

This block was fiddly.  This was my second attempt at this block.  I was happy that there was enough fabric to re-do the block.  One seam didn’t match up really well- I can see that now in the photo.

This neat little tool was made by my friend Susan’s husband.  It is a nifty little thing.  It helps when you chain piece to cut the units apart quickly.

Last, but not least… a cute Easter treat from my secret pal through the guild…  Kona solid charm pack, flower head pins, and a seam ripper (because you can never have too many)

I just couldn’t pass this one up though…

I just can’t seem to stay away from that site, and whenever I do, I always order something.
