Week Fifteen: D12

Inset seams. I cheated and used applique. I used two fabrics for the yellow sections. While I was bagging my finished blocks I noticed D5 is missing. I checked the block and did not remember making it. Checked my schedule and sure enough poor ol' D5 did not get included. I am going to have to squeeze it in this weekend or put it on next week. Need to make more foundation paper before I can print.

Not at all difficult. Foundation pieced.

Week Fifteen: E4

Inset seams but not to bad as they aren`t 90 degree seams.

Very easy block. One colour in two fabrics.

Week Fourteen: Catch Up

Today I finished D8 and RS11 from week 14. I had already printed everything out and done most of the pre prep.

D8 Dee Dee's Delight


I was really happy and frankly surprised at how well my applique went on D8.  I actually have a couple pointy points, not much fraying, and no mountains. The diamonds on this block are reverse applique.

RS11 Hills of Jerusalem

My only difficulty with the triangle is I couldn't remember how the units were assembled to make up the block. I kept mixing up two rows as they were mislabelled. To be fair the labelling probably made sense to me in April.

Week Fourteen: Blog Catch Up

I pieced this square in April but did not post about it. I still had two blocks unfinished when I fell behind and will finish them tomorrow.

Week Fourteen: D11

Two colours. Applique. Inset seams. This took all my spare time today. Points aren't getting any better. I can't seem to get that balance between huge mountains and frayed ends. I get one or the other and mushy points. Oh well, I will keep working on it.

Week Fourteen: Advanced

This week's tough block is D10. Lots of little pieces and tiny sections. The block is slightly wonky but not as wonky as the scan. The scan is unacceptably wonky but the block is acceptable.

Week Fourteen: D6

Very easy block. Very inappropriate name. I wonder if Jane was prone to sarcasm.
