Block 51

Here is our next block set out and ready to go.  The pile of square to the side are prepped and ready to go for 1/2 square triangles.

Here I've done the centre 9-patch, attached the rectangles for the middle border and attached the triangles for the outer border.

The middle border added.

The outer border added and our next block done!

Block 40

A simpler block for this week.  (A chance for us to catch up if needed. :)  Here is everything set out and ready to go.

Here the first square-in-a-square has been completed and the posts for the outer border have been attached.

The next square-in-a-square, and the next one...

And now the outer border to finish our next block.

Block 28

This was another fun block to do.

Here is everything set out and ready to go.  The small stack of blocks at the top of the picture is for 1/2-square triangles.

Here I've done the centre square-in-a-square, the outer triangles, and the 1/2-square triangles have been set out.

Now the centre square-in-a-square becomes the centre for the next square-in-a-square.  Also the squares for the next two borders have been assembled.

Now the first border has been added.  (I love how this centre looks)

And the next border...

And finally the outer triangles to make our next block.

Block 23

A fun block this week.

Here is everything ready to go.  The first thing I did was lots of square-in-a-square blocks. 

Here is everything set out with the square-in-a-square blocks done.

Now I've added the red strips.

Then added the remaining red strips to the middle strip and the white corners for the outer strips.  Then I put the three strips together.

Then added the corner pieces.

Then I trimmed it up into a square.  And our next block is done!

Block 22

Here is this week's block set out and ready to go.  The piles of squares are for 1/2 square triangles and flying geese.

Here I've made the 1/2 square triangles and flying geese.  I've added the posts for the red border and 4-patches for the centre.

Here I've created the pinwheels for the outer corners, attached the flying geese and completed the 9-patch in the centre.

Then I added the red border.

And finally the outer border to complete our next block.

Block 9

This block starts off with a small pile of 1/2 square triangles. 

I then put together the pinwheel in the centre and the 4-patches in the corners.  Plus, I attached the 1/2 square triangles together.

Now the centre square-in-a-square is completed.  Plus, I've attached the posts for the red & 1/2 square triangle borders.

Then I added the red border.

Then the next border, and the next one...

And Tada!  Our next block is completed.

Block 61

I am sooo sorry.  I don't know what happened.  I was sure I had posts lined up for the previous weeks.  Obviously I didn't.

Well, onto the next block...

This block is made up of one simple little block.  (Just lots and lots of them).  This pile is the basis of all the square-in-a-square blocks.

Here are all the square-in-a-square blocks set out and ready to go.  The one trick to making these is to pay attention to the pressing.  For these I pressed everything towards the red.  This way your seams will but together and not give you too much bulk to work through.

I then put them together as a 4-patch.

Then one more 4-patch later....

Our finished block!
