They are most likely the size of a cell phone, the smaller ones, and bigger than a coin. As for your blog, I love it!! ANd love your trellis work and I've never seen those kind of roses. I'll have to try those some time.

Learning how to balance the block and judge heaviness or lightness needed is a challenge for me, so I eat up all the info I can. <BR/>Your Melanie roses are exquisite. I haven't tried them yet. And I love the little rosebud trail that leads your eye down to the bottom of the block. Very clever.<BR/>As you know, I'm participating in my first RR, so all the tips are appreciated...the one about using black, too. That might come in handy!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13823852373811610749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023448.post-23160501562999062642009-02-07T22:40:00.000+13:002009-02-07T22:40:00.000+13:00Thanks for sharing your thoughts on how to pull th...Thanks for sharing your thoughts on how to pull this block together.

I loved being last on your COC as I could go a little crazy.... I would add that when stuck with an awkward space, stitchers can consider visually "changing" that space by dividing with cording, trim etc....which is what I did with the UR large triangle on your block....<BR/>Hugs Gerry<BR/>p.s. I added and beaded the butterflies by cobi's work on this block.... for the same reason you added the vine... the space was flat!!!Gerry Kruegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15443636394415186783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023448.post-50228591803014338032009-02-06T04:55:00.000+13:002009-02-06T04:55:00.000+13:00I so appreciate you thoughts about round robins.

I have been in too many round robins where a weak link has set a bad tone for the work. <BR/><BR/>The work you did really put that together nicely. Thanks for going thru your process of pulling it all together. I am next to the last round on a crazy quilt round robin and I am trying to pull elements together as well and your thoughts about it are great!Sewing Up A Stormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07702395570055483788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19023448.post-18973850303827757422009-02-06T04:06:00.000+13:002009-02-06T04:06:00.000+13:00Lovely block...and so interesting to read about yo...Lovely block...and so interesting to read about your work process as you went along.
