I highly recommend getting getting the triangle in a square ruler:

and there's a free video on the QIAD site showing how to use it:

If you don't have the ruler, remember to square it up to 4 1/2".
I just found some paper piecing templates over at quilters cache:

If you don't own the DVD, then watch the above video. Because the block is mainly triangle in a square blocks and four-patches.
I think a quilt made up of all Garden Walk blocks would be pretty for a bed quilt.
The triangle in a square blocks are all oversized so don't be surprised at how much you trim off.
Here's the Batik and 1930's:
Here's the Timbleberries: (There's two because I made an extra for my club block lotto drawing. The one on the right is the lotto block.)
Also, I just want everyone to see how cute this Panda Bear is. It's for the Saturday Sampler that the local quilt store hosts:
I still have not started piecing yet. Hope to be able to start up again sometime this week. I finished these up before my surgery. Just didn't get the pictures taken until today.
I've enjoyed hosting this swap and looking at everyone's blocks. When you get your quilt top done, please post some pictures over in the photo section.
(I decided not to do the Axe Head block because that would make 13 blocks. If you want to do the Axe Head, please post pictures of it and hints/suggestions would be more than appreciated.)
Hugs,
Evie
