I think the blocks are definitely getting a bit easier, without so many components. This was a fun one.

One little Shoo Fly done. I always make a sample, and it works great I use it in the block. That way I can check
my cutting and sewing techniques to make sure I don't make the same mistake 34 times. Only 33 more to make.
They sure are cute. HelenW

Added a picture of a few more.

Shari, Love your shoo blocks. Great background fabric. I like how you gave it a scrappy look, but used the same color for the
small center square and background in each block. HelenW

Laurelomac, I like how your vases all have an oriental look. Also how you changed out the the 4 patch blocks with larger 4 patches and flowers in the center. Looking Good!!! HelenW

For some reason I had more difficulty with these leaves than on previous blocks. Ended up ripping out and doing the appliqué again.
