Fabric blocks updated

Baby Blocks finished and this is my first finish for 
Finish Along List #3.
 I made the bottom two blocks first without any interfacing. They were soft and squishy. So I made the third block using stabilizer just to make it stackable. It's not that different in look from the other 2 blocks but its definitely not soft . What was the point of making soft baby blocks if its not soft. The first two blocks, that is "C" and "D" blocks score points with my baby and everyone else who's been playing with them more than the baby.

I made just two blocks using “A is for” collection from Windham Fabrics. These blocks are soft and squishy, easy for the baby to hold but not easy to stack. I think I am going to make the next block using fabrics lined with interfacing or stabilizer. Right now I am happy with these two blocks and my baby hasn’t complained.
