Still trying...and sewing...

I worked on the kaleidoscope blocks some more tonight after supper. There are 2 types of blocks, I have 15 of these repeating blocks and 10 of the linking blocks finished ( I haven't taken pix of the linking blocks yet). I am going to make 15 of each and then see how it looks. It won't be huge, but that's ok. They won't be octagonal either, I just haven't sewn the corners on them yet.

I love making stack n whack type blocks.

OK, those blocks look SO VERY COMPLICATED... I don't think I will try them. I can't wait to see the finished project.

I have a Stack & Whack book and can't quite figure it out...loaned it to a friend and she can't figure it out, either. I guess I"ll have to get it back and see if I can master it as I love how the blocks look when they are done!
