Freefall QAL 2nd phase

Here are my first set of blocks pieced for Sandra's Spring Freefall QAL.  Since these were cut during the first week, the sewing went really fast.

There was some trimming up to be done and I relied on my Block Loc 2.5" ruler-love that little guy. Since these were trimmed to 2" I just had to slide it down to the 2" mark. For little blocks I like to use a small rotary mat instead of my turn table one. It's just easier to move this little guy around.


 And what's a project without a pile cute trimmings!

  4. Lovely colours, and they are all so good with the background fabric. Trimmings, guess some birds would take them away to adorn a spring nest for their babies.

  5. Great blocks! I love the leaves. Will you stitch or embroider the stems on or leave them as is? Great fall colors.
