The block on top is D-2 Mouse in a Mirror. It was much easier to make than I thought it would be, thanks to Anina's directions.The block on the bottom is E-5 Rising Sun. This one was pretty easy too.
The block below is one for my Nearly Insane quilt. This is the first block I ever hand pieced. I bought the book and DVD called "Quilted Diamonds" by Linda Franz. I thought I needed to learn to hand piece so I tried it on this block since it had inset seams. I was pleasantly surprised on how nice it came out. I will definately be doing more of this.

Lovely fabric selection on your blocks.
Looking good. You're really moving along on these. Can't wait to see it finished.
Very, very pretty !!! I love the hand pieced block. I wish I could do more hand work. Great job !
Love the third block. Very pretty.
Your blocks are looking wonderful. I've only done a little hand piecing but I expect we'll be getting lots of practice. There are a couple of blocks with inset seams. I'm finding it easier to hand piece anything little with inset seams.
Wow! your hand piecing is very very pretty! Great blocks! Yay for early off on a Friday afternoon!

Your blocks look great! I really need to work on my hand piecing! I have a problem with the 1/4 inch seam! :)

Beautiful blocks! (Gah! I'm falling so behind on my Jane blocks!) Hand piecing is definitely awesome for inset seams, and your block looks great!
