Lets Sew Quilt Along

Block 7, or the second block in Segment 2 of the Lets Sew Quilt Along is an adorable iron design called Its A Pressing Issue by Karen at Tu-Na Quilts.

Once I cut the pieces, the iron went together beautifully!  My biggest difficulty is pushing past the colors and textures that I always want to use, and create something out of the box and fun!

My block needs a good press, but I am happy with it!
