Here is the block I finally finished yesterday after letting it sit on the ironing board for a week. It is called Battle Field and is Dear Jane block D10. I think there are 42 pieces.
One of the HST parts got rotated, but I had already put all the borders on before I realized. Still not sure if I will redo it. It is the last center purple block.
These blocks have the machine part done but still need hand sewing. Just two more corner kites to go. They are all prepped and waiting, so today should be the day. Kites weren't nearly as scary as I though when I realized that they each started with a square block that had extra bits added to the edges.
There is absolutely NOTHING scheduled all day today. Not a birthday party or a football game, no errands or obligation. Absolutely can't remember the last time there was a day WIDE open. I plan to enjoy every minute. Head over to Kathy's blog to see what other slow stitching people have going on this Sunday of rest.

Pretty block. It looks fine the way it is.
Enjoy your Sunday. We are off to day 2 of a volleyball tournament. But we have the next 3 weekends almost completely free!
I wouldn't change it - done is better than perfect! I did something similar with one of the Grandmother's Choice blocks. I was disappointed, but I'm not doing it over!
Oh my! You won't know what to do with yourself LOL!!! Enjoy your lovely day :*) I didn't notice your twisted section on that block until you mentioned it, but then it was very noticeable. You could always say it is a design element :*D
You made your own unique design there...don't change it! You are making such great progress on this project!
Thanks for linking up to Slow Sunday Stitching!
I like the block the way it is.
Think about it. You won't have to put an intentional error into the quilt, like they say the Amish do. And you get a rather interesting error.
I have to admire anyone who would tackle a challenge like you have...blocks so small and with so many pieces. When all is said and done who do you think will notice the error? Probably no one but you!
Ok - took me two minutes and all the comments to figure out the 'mistake'. I think it looks great the way it is. Enjoy your 'free' day.
Sounds like you have a perfect day planned...and the error would never have been noticed by me! Great projects!
Funny how kids totally make the arrangements for our lives.:) Love your block!
