Difficulty of block: moderate
Number of pieces: 19
Method used: hand piecing
I think Crossed Swords has become one of my top ten favourites. Originally the swords may have been appliqued. It's hard to tell for sure. I decided to try and piece it all. My concern was the four squares in the corners and stitching around the sharp curve. It was a little tricky and not as sharp a corner as it should be, but I can live with it.

I like the way you used the stripe of the red fabric.
It's a very striking block, a favorite of mine too.

Yes, I LOVE this block also! Very unusual!
Absolutely gorgeous, I like how the lines in the red fabric flows through. You sure know how to use a fabric.
You did an awesome job on this block!
