Oh Valerie - I am so sorry everything is dying. I hope new life will arrive on your doorstep very soon. It is still early so lets see what happens. The end of the month is still far away???

Sooz - How sweet of you to send me Chocolate Hearts for our Anniversary. Very Yummy :) :) Love your blocks and your fabric choices. I know you said you weren't happy with your contrasts but you did good and your poetic bribe is adorable.
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
My contrast stinks
But they'll have to do!

Valerie - this might help you if you find a quick time for yourself.
These are the instructions to make 1 block. Hope they help.
Remember - NO PRESSURE :) :)
Fabric A,B,C,D - Make a 4-patch using 3.5" Squares. Square to 6".
This is the order in which you will sew.
Fabric B
6” x 3.25” rectangle (add to end of “B Fabric” 4-Patch) See Picture
Fabric D
6” x 3.25” rectangle (add to end of “D Fabric” 4-Patch) See Picture
Fabric A
6” x 3.25” rectangle with (2) 3.25” Bkgrd Sq’s sewn to each end of Rectangle and then sewn to side.
Fabric C
6” x 3.25” rectangle with (2) 3.25” Bkgrd Sq’s sewn to each end of Rectangle and then sewn to side
Background Fabric Triangles
2 – 6 Sq’s (cut in half once diagonally making 2 triangles per 6" block) Sew to sides with points of triangle lined up with center seam of 4 - patch
STOP = YOU ARE FINISHED = DO NOT SQUARE UP YOUR BLOCK.

Just finished one and it is too big? Double checked all my measurements? How big are your girls blocks?

Valerie - These are big blocks as they can be squared 2 different way.
With your tips of the triangles heading N,S,E,W your blocks will measure 13.5"
Your 4 patch should be squared to 6" before you add the ends, the sides and the triangles. Hope this helps.

Glad you are joining us and the Secret Pals. Hope the Cotton therapy brought you some peace and joy. It is always hard to see your parents move away. Praying his time with your sister will be a blessing for everyone.
HUGE HUGS!!!!!
