Well I am way behind but am still chugging along. I gave up just the other day on hand piecing all the 1 1/2" squares. I hand pieced all of them into two but once I got to the four 1 1/2" blocks I gave up.
Then I made a huge mistake and machined ALL of the two patch units into blocks of four - then I read the instructions........Only 27 (?) were required. doh!
I really wanted to see some of these squares attached to a block as my goal by the end of next week is to have the first row completed.
I have yet to stitch my little 'string' for my tag.....
Finding these chocolate blocks terribly difficult as I think I have used some 'drill' cotton scraps and its quite thick.
I have another two blocks already cut out with applique ready to be sewn.
So my motto is slowly but surely.
Keep up the great work everyone.
Happy Stitching
Susie

Susie your blocks are looking fantastic, what a shame about the four patches! Great progress though....
The times I've plodded on without reading the instructions....don't think we will ever learn lol.
Your blocks are looking great,it's going to be beautiful.
