A Couple of Birthday Blocks

Something to show! These have been sitting around my dining room for 2 months, and I finally mailed them yesterday. They were made for my About.com Birthday block swap that Kate coordinates. These are my group 4 blocks. The recipient wanted only blue and yellow, on her yellow background that was provided. She's setting them on point.

I have also done two other blocks for the group 3 recipients, but they are a tad boring this month. No pictures this time :-) Now, if only I can actually receive the rest of the NYB blocks I was due in November!...
