Instagram post 18048748552207742 This is Sweet Spot. There are 8 of these blocks in the #paraparaquilt .  I think my applique game is finally getting a bit faster. I whipped all these blocks out in one evening, THAT or I sat way too long on my fannie on the sofa. 🤣 😅 I’m going to choose to think I’ve just gotten faster. 👏🏻💕
