More blocks done for the "Mrs. Lincoln's Sampler Quilt".
The block on the right side is the one that had a red fabric run when I rinsed the block. I figured the block was a lost cause but I threw it in the washing machine with a color catcher and a load of towels. The migrating red marks came out and the block is saved. None of the blocks have been trimmed yet. My favorite of these three blocks is the one in the middle with the three cherries.
Thanks for paying me a visit.

Hmm, I can't pick a favorite. They are all beautiful.
Karen: Your favorite block is my favorite too. I LOVE the cherries. Your Jack-O-Lantern quilt is really fun too.
Thanks goodness for Color Catchers!!! All three of your blocks look great!
WOW ! I will have to remember the color catchers ! I love all 3 of your blocks to too hard to just pick out one :-D
So glad the bleeding came out. It's a lovely block and would have been a shame to loose it.
Your blocks are so pretty. I brought a lifetime supply of color catchers with me to Japan!
Whew! Got to get me some of those catchers!! Thanks for the tip!

I like all 3 - very much! Glad the red came out for you :0)
I really like the cherries block, too. They look good enough to eat LOL Julierose
Lovely, lovely, lovely!! I think my favorite is the red flowers!!
What do you get color catchers? I had a little "color" problem when I soaked my antique blocks - but I'm not going to worry about it now, but in the future I'll be better!
Ups,that was lucky!
I agree, I like the middle one too.
THese are so pretty. I do like that one in the middle too, but the one on the left is a beautiful one also :)
I'm a flower girl...love the third one.
Beautiful blocks. I am just amazed at your speed and how much you get accomplished.
Love that green - especially the one on the left. Is there some in each block?
Hurray for the color catchers. I'm so glad that they worked for the red in your block. The pumpkins in your header are a happy bunch.
These blocks are all gorgeous! Hooray...happy to hear that block was saved in the wash! ;)
I can't choose a favorite, I love them all.
