D-5 ,D-6, D-7


 D-5
I liked working on D-5.  It was simple to do.  I like mixing the prints, if not the colors.  I especially like if I can fussy cut the center on blocks that have large pieces. 


The only tip that I have is to piece the outer triangles and borders separately and attach .  just be aware of the DIRECTIONAL pieces in the edge borders.

D-6

This was a really easy block. But it would have been more complicated if i had EPP the corners on.  So it was easy to paper piece on my machine and then attach the finished block  to a 4.5 piece of card stock.

D-7
This block turned out perfect.  The only thing is the striped fabric is the same as the alternate block in the row before.  So rather than have two blocks next to each other, I will need to move this further down the row.  I need to be more aware of prints since I am only using 3 colors.  I have a lot of fabric, but the limitations in color make it difficult.
The tip for this block is to piece the center square and two rectangles first, then piece two sides of two triangular units and rectangle and attach them to the center strip.  I hope this makes sense, I didn't think to take photos.                        

Okay, on to the next three!  T

STILL THINKING ABOUT IT

 After finally finishing all of the blocks for the center, and one border, I've probably taken too long of a break.. I still have 3 bord...
