"Many of the things you can count, don't count. Many of the things you can't count, really count." - Albert Einstein
I just finished my first group of blocks for the Just Takes2 and now waiting til the 15th when the next group will be available. I have noticed that many quilters name their projects so in the spirit of trying to become a true quilter I have named this WIP "Desert Blossom". Most of the blocks are 6 1/2" squares except for the large 12" square in the upper right.
I am not the best at following directions.....I have been sewing since I was 8 or 9 years old and sometimes since "I know what I'm doing" I skip the directions and plow ahead.........often those are the times that I become reacquainted with my seam ripper.....The good news is that the directions on these first 6 blocks were fabulous and I didn't sew one thing backwards! I confess that I didn't do the "back basting" method when I appliqued the heart block....I used some wonderful stuff called "Steam a Seam2", which is a fusible web that sticks temporarily without ironing or permanently when ironed.

And now before I get to rambling too much I will just say, TTFN!

Wow! You're moving right along. And doing a good job too. I just need to see if there are hilachas hanging off the back side, heh heh. See you soon.
The Just Takes 2 blocks look fabulous. I need to get going on mine.
