I had a thought

about this block.  I decided to make ...... well take a look

All the gnomes are dressed the same.  Each with dark blue bottoms and a light blue hat.  Beards are the same.  Like a choir.  This block is dedicated to the song "Believe", a wonderful verse and song  for everyone.

I can do anything at all,
 I can climb the highest mountain, 
I can feel the ocean calling wild and free. 
I can be anything I want, 
with this hope to drive me onward, 
if I can just believe in me.

It may also remind you of the song Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers recorded a few years back .....
I Believe in Santa Claus.
Whichever you want.

I opted to do 2 different browns for the blocks with cream lettering.  I also used my head this time for cutting out these blocks.  I fused a large piece of web to the back of each brown,
  measured the size of the blocks

and then cut them out.
I stacked them in order I was going to use them all marked.  This was so much easier than doing each one individually.  I'm just sorry I thought of this at the end and not the beginning!!
So it is done!!  I have to stitch, but it shouldn't take long.  I can do a lot at one time due to the corners almost touching.  Maybe an afternoon will see this done.
I do have to sash but that can wait til the next block -- which is a whole month away!!!!!
