It's October....

Today is the first day of my challenge to myself to make a block a day from The Civil War Love Letter Book. Each block will finish at 6 inches and I have been trying to make one a week since the beginning of January.
Today I made the block called First and Always. Instead of all the half square triangles I made six flying geese with a 2 inch strip of fabric and then four hst's for the four corners.

Wow! I would have never thought about doing it that way. I was trying to figure out how you did the center, duh! the other two flying geese.
