Hi Peg,
almost done with the central block but I struggle with the needle turn. In this block I tried the freezer paper technique and was difficult because after the first stitches the fabric detached from the paper. Then I tried using the sticky tape; worked great for the leaves, I guess because they were simple shapes. For the flowers didn't work so great.
Last I tried just stitching following the lines I draw on the background and helping with my thomb, this worked but some of the flower curves didn't come up as they should.
Escencially, you just follow the design on the background to ensure the shape is good?
As you can see I haven't done the little circles inside the flowers or the grapes. I am not sure how to do it.
