    The Starry Sky block is in my "to do" pile and I'm thrilled to be done with one Lola Pouch - thanks for the inspiration. That pattern took tricky turns, but at the end of the day was really easy - thanks for sharing the info.

    I love that star block, might have to take a look at that tutorial, the library is such a great source for books and it is free as well.

    Lovely blocks all round but I especially like the first one. Vibrant colours and so many wonderful background fabrics.
    So I gather you have to add something to the chair block? What about a lamp, or window with venetian blinds - - just reminds me of that era.

    Mary picked a neat block for MCMB, didn't she? And those X blocks are really nice... and for such a good cause. And the pouch is darling too. Isn't it nice to sew small, easy projects once in a while? You do it so nicely!

    Beautiful blocks. I really enjoyed Mary's block. It seems that with every member, every month, you all pick such great blocks and have beautiful ideas that I want to make a copycat quilt.

    Always fun to see what's coming out of the PatchworknPlay Workshop!

    I love the block line-up and the sweet little pouch for a friend. And what a great idea to get a graphic arts book to generate ideas for your quilt!
