The last blocks are done!

I'm finished...with the NI blocks that is! Woohoo! Actually I finished the last one early Sunday morning, but I've just not had the mojo to blog about it. I have a bit of a cold and very low energy right now, most of which I'll reserve for sewing. So here are the last few blocks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sorry about the shadows on some of the blocks, but to get the true color I have to turn the flash off and then there's a shadow. I had thought about laying the blocks out on a snow bank, but we've had no sun for days and days. Just gloomy, snowy and really cold weather.
Oops...just hit a button and published too early....blogger must not want me to complain anymore...lol....just when I was really getting into it too :o)

Have a great day everyone!

Congratulations! It has been fun to see them as you finished them. You are a workhorse - or maybe a racehorse to have done them so quickly. I also move the fussy cuts and think you are very brave to use the directional fabric - they look super.

They all look great! I think all us bloggers understand the perils of trying to find the right photo conditions to get the correct colors to show. Good luck getting all your blocks together quickly!!
