Grandmother's Choice: Block 2

Block #2 is "Amethyst"...  which has the pesky Y-seams!    But will that stop me?  Noooo!


There are a lot of beautiful blocks being posted on the Grandmother's Choice Flickr board... if you have a few minutes sometime, check 'em out!

    and you made two blocks didn't you? Those "Y" seams are pesky, my block took a bit longer to make than I would have liked.

    Oh, no, the dreaded Y-Seam, which I avoid like the plague. Good for you for getting it done! Looks great. : )

    That's beautiful Freda! Your Y seams turned out great.

    Its almost identical to Iowa and Kansas! They were paper pieced though.

    Lovely colors, and you were successful in the y-seam battle! I love how that center flower appears 3D.

    Beautiful, Freda. oh no. I don't think I can do a Y seam. I may make another 'week one' block. Wait to see what 'week three' looks like.
