Just Takes 2 Unit 10


The completion of these blocks brings me up to the current month's clues.  I'm getting caught up - just 2 more sets of blocks to do. I'm guessing that with the July 1 blocks, when they're posted,  there will be directions for putting together section 2.  That should be fun to see and do.

I couldn't find my 12 1/2 inch ruler so I was making do with other smaller rulers.  Didn't measure twice before cutting - cut off too much.  Oh no!  I wasn't going to do that applique block over so sewed on a strip and will be satisfied that the block is finished.  I'm disappointed but I'm also guessing that when all of the blocks are put together, this one won't stand out from all the others.  I also remembered that I added strips to the house block in section 1 as it printed wrong and I had it started before I realized what I had to do to get precise printed patterns.  That made me feel better about my error as this won't be the only block with a strip added.
