this block was the neatest of all bom my friends love it because they think it was hard but when they found how easy it was they was surprised. I am enjoying the classes with Amy it was so nice of Crafty to offer this free. Thank you so much.

Love your fabric choices! But really love your idea of turning the fabric one quarter turn to do the woven affect. I thought about the very same thing, but hadn't figured out HOW to!
