[ATTACH=CONFIG]317393[/ATTACH]I know my seam allowance is a little short on that bottom edge. I'll watch that when I start assembling the rows. This one took a long time but I was sure glad to have the thinner thread in the machine with those tiny seams. I've prepped the applique block and will work on it while I watch t.v. after work this week. Love everyone else's blocks from this week.

Here's my blocks for this week. I think I'm going to redo my A11 its a bit wonky after I figured out how to do it. Did not do Y seams.

CindyA and echoemb, your blocks look great.
echoemb, is that reverse applique? did you trim back the seam allowances or sew them at that depth? they look so narrow.

echoemb 03-05-2012 08:56 AM

yes, it is reverse, probably the first one I did. I trimmed them after I sewed them. I'm still not happy with that one as my other ones are getting better as I've never done reverse applique before.

CindyA~~Love the graduating colors in your blocks. That is an awesome idea, I may borrow it.

echoemb~~great job on your blocks, and the reverse applique, looks great

aneal~~love your colors, especially the A9

Yaaaaaay for me! I did 3 blocks today.....so where does that put me? about 5 wks behind?! No matter, I'm now getting into the swing of it. I was too tuckered out to post pictures but I will try tomorrow.

I finally went to the glass shop and I got my triangle cut from plexiglass. I notice that the blocks I paper pieced are larger than the blocks I made with templates. I used my 1/4" foot and was very careful with the seam allowance but I still had to remake about 5 of my blocks.
