Block 16 - Tazzie

As promised, here is my block 16. I've used up some of my scraps and little pieces for this block - and I have so many to use!

I've made block 1 through to 17 now, and a lot of blocks scattered through the rest of the quilt from challenges etc. The next one I should tackle is block 18, but I honestly don't think I'm ready to take that one on just yet. It's very scary looking!

Also, I have some magazine work I need to get busy on, so my NI block production may slow down for a little while. I don't think I'll be able to go cold turkey though - these blocks are entirely addictive! I'll check back in soon :-)

**Late edit: I have since changed out the blue fabric for a different one, as I found while putting a row together, that the block diagonally next to it had the very same fabric in it.**
