Didn't touch it for a few years...came back a few years ago and it "clicked" and now it's one of my favorite things to do.
That's encouraging. I haven't done it for several years; I was not fond of it when I tried it then, but might attempt again on some of these FWS blocks with tiny triangles.
Weezie, I haven't given up yet due to the encouragement I have received here. If I can do it, so you can.
Thanks rwquilts, I know you are watching me!
#4 should be the ideal for PP as it is all retangles. Not sure how to use the foundation pp when attaching the different units together. I'll try again.
Leakus, units go together the same as regular pieces of a block...only you keep the paper on til all the seams are stitched...just match up seams and pin and stitch in the order that makes sense construction-wise... :lol: You can do this!!!
