Corn and Tomatoes Block

Today was another Farmgirl Friday Sew Along.  I worked about four hours on the Corn and Tomatoes Block.  I was so careful with starching and ironing and cutting and sewing 1/4" seams. 'Sew' darn it, what happened to the points in the middle?!?  ARGH!  I'm trying to decide whether to take it apart and try again or to make a new block.  My husband says to stop  obsessing (of course).   I love my husband, he's just the best cheerleader anyone could ever ask for!




I am happy with the fabrics I chose.  I'm not used to pulling fabrics and putting them together; but I think I did a pretty good job.




I was absolutely delighted to actually accomplish putting this block together.  When I first looked at the picture, I thought how on earth am I going to do this?  There were two blocks on today's sew along schedule; but, I was exhausted after finishing this one, and it was already past dinner time. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to the next one, or maybe I'll be re-doing this one, or maybe I'll get back to work on the quilt on my design board...

Thanks for stopping by!
