Progress

In class on Monday we pinned our blocks onto the design wall, or, as one of my fellow classmates called it, the "wall of shame" (which I much prefer!)


I'm pretty pleased with how it's looking so far.  I want to make quite a few more blocks yet as I'm hoping to make it double bed sized.


This is the Drunkard's Path block that I originally wanted to make.  Typically, I actually prefer the other one now.



We learnt speed-piecing to make these little log cabin blocks in class on Monday.  I need to square them up before sewing them together as they've all come out slightly different sizes.

I also invented "free motion cutting", which is what happens when you change your rotary cutting blade & put the new blade on the wrong side, -duh!
