Shop hop blocks

These are the blocks that I have completed so far from the shop hop.  The blocks came with maroon reds and forest greens for the accent colors so I have switched those out for tans and blues.  I also changed the background fabric to a warmer beige.  

See that tiny dutchman's puzzle block?  This is the second time I've made that block the wrong size for a shop hop quilt.  I'm very annoyed at myself.  The flying geese are perfect, perfect I tell you! But the block is only 8.5 inches.  Fortunately it looks like I can use the flying geese in other blocks and I'll just make new, larger flying geese to get the correct size block.
