Prep Time – Day Eight

I have nothing to show for today! I spent some time on my laptop finalizing Block Nine of the Block of the month quilt, Round the Year, which will be posted on January 1st. I also cut the fabric for the Dusk version of Block Four, Sapphire Fire. Just to remind you, I had made this block in only the Rainbow colourway.

This is a fairly simple block, though a bit tedious to piece. The results, though, can be quite stunning!

What gemstone will your block depict? A garnet, a golden topaz or an emerald, perhaps?
