*********************************************************
FUNNY thing happened when I was going through the QIAD FREE Patterns. Never saw it there before. This block is a version of the ROCKY MOUNTAIN block only our middle is one piece instead of a Square in a Square.
HOW ABOUT THAT - It is QIAD Block!!!!!

Thanks Teresa!!

Can the center (6.5) be a different fabric/picture than the HST?

Either way, please count me in for July! ;)
Have Fun,

Welcome everyone!!!!
Linda. I was thinking of that but decided NOT TO just because this is a variation of the Anvil block which is all one color.
Have to say I was very tempted to make one just to see what it looks like but will stay with just One color and your background.

You will have to be careful what fabrics your choose to make sure it doesn't look to chopped up.

Thank you Jacquie for posting the picture. FINALLY got my phone to behave and posted the pictures above in the initial thread. You are a Peach!!!!!

I changed the tickets for your Santa Story to be either you, your family member or a friend. You can be ANY AGE in the picture - LOL!!!!

Make sure your blocks contain only 1 colorful - blendable when all sections are pieced together - Christmas fabric and 1 background WoW.

Can't wait to see what you choose. The more blocks the more WINNERS to find a friend to have some MERRY FUN with!!!!!

DON'T FORGET those EXTRA ways of EARNING BONUS TICKETS!!!!
* 3 extra tickets = if you make 4 DIFFERENT COLORED blocks

* 3 tickets = bring a friend and you both send blocks

* 1 ticket = (optional) story of your own first picture with Santa, your childs, a niece or nephew or a friend.
