Quilt Along---Week 6

This weeks blocks were fun!  There is something so peaceful to me (no pun intended) about putting blocks together.  Sidney began a four day Sew Basics & Sew Intermediate summer camp through the girl scouts this week.  She's had a great time through day one and completed a pillowcase so far.  She had a hiccup when she sewed her opening shut and got to experience the seam ripper.  Funny thing too as I'll mention in a minute.

I'm finding one of the most challenging parts as we get further along, trying to decide which fabrics to use as I slowly reach the end of certain ones.

I went ahead and did the cream colored center as traditional.  I'd like to try to put something in the center if I can work around the fact that I finished the rest of the block.  **funny thing, as Sid had to learn about seam ripping yesterday, I sewed the second two triangles on the center reversed and had to do a little seam ripping myself!

Several of you have wanted to see how Sid's blocks are coming.  She's a few weeks behind me, but had collected quite a bit of scrap fabric preparing for her classes and is excited to incorporate them as we go on.  Here' s where she's at so far....
