A Few Of Our First Blocks

Here are our first blocks we made. Elaine's are in the top corner and mine are the bottom left. They are only 5 inch squares to this point. When we sew them together they will be 4 1/2 inches square. We think they are really cute! We are both using quite different fabric. Elaine's is more "Thimbleberries/Civil War Era" and mine is closer to the "Cottage/Shabby Chic" fabrics. It's still going to take us quite a bit of time to get this done. We are hoping to complete it before we die!!! hahaha
