Civil War Quilt

Ever sew slowly I am catching up on my Civil War blocks. I've added a page to my blog that shows all my blocks in one place...at some point I hope to edit the photos to look more like a "quilt."

This weekend I completed the 3 blocks below ... that means I only have 9 more blocks to catch up on! I still think the hardest part of these blocks is deciding what fabric to use in which blocks. I'm also adjusting some of the cutting instructions to use "Bonnie" construction methods. I' not 100% sure this is worth the effort but I do hope the left over pieces will be more usable in other blocks.
