Medals Summer Games Block 2

The opening ceremonies for the Summer Olympics are tonight.  I am sure each athlete taking part in the games is dreaming about taking home a medal.

There are actually four blocks to piece while enjoying the opening ceremonies.  The rings may be colored in gold, silver and bronze and are connected to a ribbon.  

These will surround the center ring medallion (block 1).  If you missed block 1, click here.

As a reminder, each day during the Olympics I will provide a free block for the quilt.  The instructions for that day's block will be downloadable for 24 hours.  Check in each day to get all the patterns at no charge.  If you miss a pattern you may purchase it in my store.
