Queen Caroline was close to Robert Walpole (Britain's first prime minister) and had an influence over his political ideas. She was born in 1638 and had eight children. She was eventually well educated, becoming a considerable scholar and had a lively mind. She had a warm, friendly, un-princessy personality: teasing her servants, laughing, crying, complaining about bores, spending time with intellectuals whenever she could. She had to mediate in the epic row between her two pet philosophers, Isaac Newton and Gottfried Liebniz about which of them had discovered calculus. In fact, she loved science and medicine and Caroline was one of the first Westerners to have her children innoculated against smallpox.
Caroline had a lot of political influence over her life and was mourned by Jacobites and protestants when she died.
There is not much to say about this block. Like with so many others, sew the triangles together to create squares first. Then sew the squares together in a line, then pin the lines together matching the joins and sew the lines.
