Well I think I'm finally getting the hang of Paper Piecing.....YAY. The above block is called Mosaic Quilt and can be found here under free blocks and then select Blocks for quilts I. I had heaps of fun doing this one. I traced the block onto thin sew in interfacing.....only boo boo I made was to trim the outside to 1/4" but I should have made the borders a bit wider, such as 1/2" to allow for attaching sashing or joining to another block....OOOPS! Oh well, at least I got the hang of the centre bit. I know the purple polka dot looks like I missed a little on the bottom right corner, but trust me, I didn't, it's the edge of the next row of spots!
Boo hoo, I can't see the photo! But went and looked at it on that site.. it looks interesting, what colour way did you do it in?
ReplyDeleteI can't see it either Naomi.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great Nomes.
ReplyDeleteNice block Naomi, reminds me of a crazy quilt. It does seem to take a while to get your head around paper piecing, but once you do there will be no stopping you.
ReplyDeleteHi Chick, yes your photo is there now!
ReplyDeleteThe block looks lovely. Thanks for the link. I wasn't familiar with that site. She has some nice things.
ReplyDeleteturned out wonderfully, I really like the looks of this stained glass....
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic! The bottom of the polka dot block doesn't look like it's missing. Paper piecing is a mystery to me!
ReplyDeleteVery cute and crisp! You go, girl!
ReplyDeleteWonderful block!
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful block, Naomi...I don't see that special design you referred to! Looks perfect from here!
