Clipper Ship Done, Third Block Coming Along

I finished the second block, the clipper ship, two days ago but my husband didn't take a picture until today. I made a couple of changes to the original design, both involving the sails and rigging. The original block has the masts in front of the sails which struck me as being odd and unlikely so I moved them behind the sails. That allowed me to move the sails slightly and then to stuff them when the block was complete, making them look like sails that are full of wind.

The block looks crooked right now because it isn't trimmed to its final 15.5 inch size and square it up.
