I found this block while I was mooching around on Pinterest the other day, and just HAD to have a go.

I've used my 2020 BOM colours. They were handy and I thought they might work OK for this.
It was fairly easy to do but you need to keep your wits about you to remember which colour goes where.  :S
I'm pleased with how it's turned out and I think it'll probably? end up in the finished 2020 BOM quilt.

That's fab @Sandra. I love twist blocks and used one for my place mats. (I think I stole it from @Pearl). Very effective! :loveit:

That's really lovely @Sandra - I have a similar design in my 'ideas' folder, but yours is much nicer.
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Whilst I am not a Darksider, I do occasionally have a look at all the gorgeous quilting that goes on and Sandra you have posted a few recently and may I say your choice of colours is glorious, they really go with one another and make the 'object' stand out - well done and keep going.

You've asked me that before.  :S
I don't know how to do a nice, clear tutorial. Yours are so well done...you've set the bar very high.

Oh, and thank you Elnnina.  :) I always seem to be drawn to bright colours on a dark background.

Do you use google photos?

No...I tried to figure out how google photos worked when you asked if I'd do a tut on the unicorn fpp cushion cover I made.
Couldn't figure it out and my kids couldn't (wouldn't) help me.
