    WOW----and you say you're a beginner????

    Those are hard blocks and you are a very precise quilter!
    (and doing anything with a baby around is quite an accomplishment
    in itself)

    Way to go! :lol:

    Thank you for the wonderful compliment! I wanted to do a sampler so I could experience a bunch of different block designs. It took some time and I've had to rip out a number of seams, but I feel it's so totally worth it! It's taken me just over a month to do the 12 blocks, and that includes not working on weekends and some weeknights. I try to work when the baby is busy and after her and my older daughter go to bed, for about 2 hours. I'm really suprised at how fast the blocks came together!

    Here are some more pics. I laid out the blocks and decided which way I want them. As you can see, they have been well inspected by my FurKids!

    absolutely EYE POPPING!
    Good job!
    I can hardly wait to see the sashing ... that is going to be one heck of a statement about color and excitement! :shock: (in a very good way, of course) ...

    It looks like your furkids have adopted it for their own. It's going to be great!
