My favourite blocks

I loved the April B.O.M. so I have a lot of 6" squares and decided after doing Aprils block to attempt to scale it down for a 6" block - this is the result: I love it! :-)
Sorry the photo is a bit out of focus.

What a good idea to showcase our favourite blocks. Might give inspiration to others or remind ourselves that there's more to life than hsts...eh Rubes??
Your block looks lovely

Too confused and bitty for my taste, but beautifully done and amazingly difficult

Love it Efemera! I particularly like the fussy cut owl! It looks very involved but beautifully done.

I'd be too daunted to try one of those but they look amazing! Did you foundation piece it and then appique the central circle?

Love the New York Beauty block, so effective.This is my favourite. It's so simple, but looks complicated. I'm in the process of making into a bag.

What is this one called, Holly?
In the book I learnt it from it's called Seminole.
Efemera, your colour choice is wonderful and the work, lovely.

Gorgeous Timeless Treasures just add to the opulence...
I think I'm going to have guest presenters of the BOM...
Anyone up for it ???
