Layer Cake Quilt Along - Block 2

Don't you just love the holiday season?  It's a great excuse for falling behind in things like the Layer Cake Quilt Along.  Today here in Iowa, the weather is just miserable...which means it's a good day to do some sewing and crafting.  Working like a busy little bee this afternoon, I managed to get Block Two finished today...and it was both deceptively easy and difficult!  The pieces were fairly easy to cut and put together...however squaring up was a pain!  It's a skill I definitely need to work on.  All in all though, it turned out nice and I'm excited to get a start on the Basket Block tomorrow!  I'm hoping to be close to being caught up before Block 4 is released on Tuesday.

  2. I'm so glad you enjoyed the box of cheer! I'm a beginning quilter, I'm hoping some day to actually have a finished product and not just a bunch of random squares...
