My Version:
Ta dah!! This is my version of this square using my colour palette (I blogged about this here). I just love, love, love the ruffle on this one and thought it would fit in nicely with some of the other 3-D squares that we have made.
Don’t forget to stay tuned for the LAST block to be released on 25th (or 26th) November.
