B-6
Difficulty of block: moderate
Number of pieces: 43
Method used: hand piecing
I just finished last week's block today. All was going well until I discovered I pieced the center of Wild Goose Chase incorrectly, but everything is good now!
I'm working on this block too, and I really hate it! It seems like I've been working on it for hours without any progress. I think I need some more courage to finish it ;o) Love you block though! It's lovely in pink.
yours is lovely! Mine got a little wonky and crooked! This was kind of a little tricky guy! I guess that is what happens when you have what are they 1/4 inch lines in there!! LOL
Karen, your blocks continue to be so beautiful. I am planning on RV'ing to AZ for a couple months this winter and this trip I will be taking my sewing machine with me so I can work on some quilting! Your blocks are an inspiration!

Love that block, it reminds me of lattice work.
Again, Karen, a beautiful color (fabric) combination. Perfect.
Very interesting block pattern. Love the rose and green. I used some of the same green fabric in my War Between the States Quilt.
