Old Maid. East, West, Home's Best. I added the coffee cup fabric because it was homely. Note, I'm still using the same paisley throughout. Some of the blocks didn't work very well with it, but I thought, what the heck!

Katherine. From ironclad shoes to Roses. This letter focussed a lot on hard work, children, sacrifice and roses. I decided some rose fabric would be best! Here they are among the green pastures.

Granny. Another Grandmother. The mother's faith and love for her children made me select these fabrics. For an added bonus I added another paisley...

Jenny. I learned to play. All about playing and having fun. Here, the family are having fun on the farm with the red stripes indicating fences.

I had huge issues with Granny. I managed to mix up the templates big time and my points were way out. The above image was my third attempt. Below is one of my failed attempts.

I also had issues with Jenny by not noticing that I hadn't caught the seam with enough fabric. A lesson learnt. Use more fabric than you need.

By the way, I begun these blocks about December 2015, so it's a slow road.
