Patriot's Lantern

C-10 Patriot's Lantern. 37 pieces.


If I had paid an attention to the name of this block, Patriot's Lantern  I would have put some more yellow into it.
Next time I better look first at the name, then my block chart and number before I choose the colour.

Family Reunion

C-12 Family Reunion, 49 pieces.


Family Reunion was handpieced in the beginning
and then,  when it was big enough  the Bernina took over.

A small mistake, it is pink as C-13 but a little darker.
Well so what!!!!
