birthstone block: round cut {pattern now available}

After all the amazing (and humbling) feedback from the "crystal" side of my sea crystal + plaid quilt, I finally got my batoot in gear (extra shout out to jeifner for the motivation!) and put together the round cut birthstone block pattern (available for immediate download for $5 on etsy and craftsy).

Sample gem designs for January-December modern birthstones:
garnet, amethyst, aquamarine, diamond, emerald, alexandrite, ruby, peridot, sapphire, tourmaline, citrine, blue topaz 

princess cut version is in the works and should be released within the next week or so.  Thank you all for your kind and thoughtful words.  Hope you enjoy ;)

P.S.  Does anyone know what's up with the new bloglovin'? Have you updated? What's that all about?

Edited to add:  For anyone who thinks I've lost it {ahem, Mareen ;)}, lately when I check my bloglovin' feed on my laptop, there's a prompt at the top of the screen asking me to "Try out the new Bloglovin'" (clicking through takes you to this beta site).  But alas, I thought I was already signed up for the new Bloglovin'?(!) Oh well, I've signed up for something and you can follow me here (wherever "here" happens to be now!):
