Again, I used the Architextures map fabric as the background. I pulled other prints from the collection, plus the solid Kona Berry from my Architextures Coordinates charm pack (see below for colors included).

top row: flame, ice peach, plum, lake; 2nd row: cadet, pond, honey dew, kumquat; 3rd row: meringue, kiwi, berry, cactus;
4th row: cerise, delft, lagoon, mango; bottom row: pacific, peacock, teal blue, fern; photo courtesy of Pink Chalk Fabrics
On the practice block, I included the Cerise. Along with using the same background for each block, I also plan on including one of these solids, a different one each time.
I'm really glad I decided to do the 6 1/2" version of each block. I've just enjoyed doing them so much, and can hardly wait to work on February's.

It's a lovely block, I like the solids with those fabrics.
Your piecing is great! I am okay with paper piecing, it's taking out the paper. Proper paper helps. Also a shot of steam to moisten, then peel off : )
What's your plan for the blocks? This looks great!
I have enjoyed seeing these blocks pop up. Love how you are using Carolyn's Architextures fabric. Looks great!

Very nicely done! The paper piecing gives your points crispness.
These are going to look fab all together, love the shot of solids in each one
This looks great! I think I am going to do the 6.5" block too after seeing your post, I am hoping to get mine going today. Great job!
This is going to be an amazing project! Both blocks you've finished are awesome, and such a treat to work with Architextures!
Wonderful job!
