Now no one seems to recognize it as it's been done in totally different colours than normal.<br />I agree, that spring tint is a great name for that little block.<br />I too love pinks and really don't have what would be considered "fall" colours in my little stash of lifes pleasures.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425123492444675750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5921898318720308830.post-24122694328694991322010-04-14T00:11:03.613+01:002010-04-14T00:11:03.613+01:00My friends and I have discovered this book recentl...My friends and I have discovered this book recently and have fallen in love with the project. Now most of our quilt group is joining the project. I have only made 4 blocks so far, one under repair and another under construction. We share our templates and have more fabric than we need but are sharing that as well. Sounds like you are enjoying this one as much as we are. Good luck and I hope you don't mind if I pop in to check your progress from time to time.<br />ElyteElytehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857438599489754345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5921898318720308830.post-53184147473957539412010-04-12T23:14:23.790+01:002010-04-12T23:14:23.790+01:00You blocks are looking good definitely spring not ...You blocks are looking good definitely spring not autumn, however is that another start and was it on the list LOL.Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17288635333245893039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5921898318720308830.post-58590307669410509892010-04-11T11:58:16.818+01:002010-04-11T11:58:16.818+01:00The book looks really interesting.
