Barbara Brackman released this months block last week.

I traced the circles. Then I cut multiples of the leaf shape out of freezer paper. I ironed them in place on the back of the block.

Then I traced around them with my pencil to prepare for back basting.

This worked really well. I hope I remember this tip so I can use it again in the future!

I’m not a car person, so I’ve left the center blank for now. Barbara told me there is a dog block coming up. Yippee! She suggested using this as a signature block.

Methinks that is a very good idea indeed.
Have a great day!

That’s a great idea, to use it as a signature block. I am really enjoying these fun big blocks.
