BOM Rehab - MoP . . .

Since I've finished all the focus blocks for Memories of Provence, the only thing left for this week's BOM Rehab was to start on the setting blocks.  
Here's my first block.  I need 19 more.


The pattern calls for all the corner squares to be black, I substituted some red.  I'm also going with a different fabric for the center square, and intend to fussy cut each one of them to look exactly like that.
This block only has 29 pieces, they should go fast.

Here's a little feel for how things will look when all the blocks are done.


Sinta, thanks for hosting your BOM Rehab!  I may get this quilt done this year thanks to you!

Thank you also to all the veterans and their families for the sacrifices they have freely given and continue to give, I think of you often but particularly today.
