I think I am retired from any block exchanges. I won some cactus blocks, 34 to be exact, but could only use 14 of them due to poor construction techniques. I mean we're talking non-existent seam allowances, blocks 1/2 inch too small, etc. Sigh. So I made some more to put with the 8 I had already made for the pot. It's a really easy and fun
block to make. This is the first time I've set blocks on-point and had sashing with cornerstones. Oh, the problems I had. My brain just could not figure things out! Hah! I think I needed to sash each block rather than try to add it row-by-row. I must have done and redone every seam twice. I finally finished yesterday after struggling over the past few days.
And wouldn't you know it... I can't blame anyone for that but me.
Now to decide on how to quilt it.
Hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!
