Welcome to my blog!
My project that I described last week continues. It involves many pieces sewn together in a 10 inch block.
It's a challenge, but I have blocks in the style of Jane Stickle, many small pieces paper pieced to make a 4.5 inch block.
And I finished a smaller version of the Nearly Insane quilt. Many pieces in a 6 inch block, finished.
So 65 pieces in a 10 inch block should take time, but shouldn't be that bad.
Here are seven blocks on the table. Colors are about right.
And nine blocks together on the floor. My camera on my phone makes the colors more vibrant here.
One challenge is that in sewing the flipped corners to make the black geese, about one in ten pieces gets pulled down the hole in my plate on my sewing machine. This is user error.
I have to rip out the snarled stitches and partially restitch. This slows me down, and is why I have done only 5 blocks this past week. I will go until I run out of fabric strips that I have pre-cut for this project.
