Simply Sophisticated Block 11



Simply Sophisticated Block 11 of 12 from The Fat Quarter Shop! I'm on the ball this month! Susan in Florida emailed me this morning that she already had hers done, so I figured I'd better get to it!

I'm going to mention a typo in the instructions, just in case some of you - LIKE ME - may have missed the correction. Print Two - you'll need two 3-7/8" squares and sixteen 2" squares. It's obvious, but I just thought I'd mention it.

To be entered in the monthly Simply Sophisticated drawing for the $25 gift certificate so generously donated by The Fat Quarter Shop, please leave a comment on this post and link us to your blog where you've posted your completed blocks. If you don't have a blog, please email me a picture of your blocks to be entered in the drawing. There are two drawings left. If you're behind, just skip ahead to this month and get 'em done!

The drawing will be held on Sunday, August 23rd around 6:00 p.m. Pacific time.

Since we're almost done, you might want to grab a backing set while there are still a couple available. Goodness, I love this fabric!

And don't forget to visit Jolly Jabber to see the exciting news! Kimberly, Kevin and Emma are having a special give-away to celebrate the arrival of their bundles of joy! The babies are so beautiful, and Miss Emma is delighted with her little brothers!

Good luck!

oh, that's a beautiful block! I had never thought of doing flying geese that way before,(2 different 'skies') but it really makes the center stand out.

I am back to say Hi! I am glad you are glad that you did some piecing! I wish I could do some quilting. I have my baby quilt top at the sewing machine all ready! There it sits and there it will sit for more time waiting.
Miss you Fern
