April Bee Blocks

I am sort of finished with my April Bee blocks. For do.GoodStitches Linda Beth requested scrappy half square triangles in light and dark values.



Then for Make it Modern, Jenniffier requested modified Bento Box blocks that she is going to cut up in aqua and orange.




and here's the 'sort of finished' part.  Jen requested these leaf blocks. She gave us two methods to make them and I chose paper pieced. I've done many paper pieced blocks so I don't know what my stumbling block has been with this one. But I've had the pull and resew so many pieces of these. And then I get to this point and they aren't long enough!? So I've left it up to Jen at this point if I should add white to the top (where it looks like they might be short) or if she wants me to send them with the inner and outer sashing. Either way I'm embarrassed that these kicked my butt! I think my brain is fried from going back to work. Yeah, that's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Oh, Becky, I don't want you worrying too much about those feathers. It could have been my fault with the pattern.

The blocks are lovely, those feather blocks always seem difficult to me but then again I've never tried them. Maybe you're allergic to feathers????
