October BOM done

This block was a real stretch of my abilities, for sure. I almost went
with the simplified method others posted, but then decided that Melissa
was giving us progressively harder blocks and I should use it as a
"teaching moment" ;-) I do think my points would have matched better
with the simplified method though ...

I love your colour combination Anne.
I finished my October block yesterday and must admit your points are
much better than mine. It is a great learning experience isn't it. I
have had to unpick on many occasions !!! I can see many improvements in
my work along the way too.

now all I have to do is take photos and post them

Actually the *points* are OK. Its the places where the little squares
are supposed to line up with the little triangles inside the star
points. That darn ole scant 1/4 inch is really crucial in this block --
not much fudge factor allowed. Concentrate on one thing and the other
will sneak up and bite you on the behind :-)

Thank you Dee. At the outset I decided to use only fabrics from a gift
stash of 1960's stuff from a garment maker. They are little flower-y
calico things that I wouldn't probably use for anything else, but they
do all seem to go together nicely -- so long as I remember *value* :-)
