I only have a picture of the desired block.

But I'm getting closer! I used some of the techniques described here and am hand sewing another block sample. It looks better!

I'm just struggling with my needle (actually threading) tonight. I'll put this away and try more tomorrow.


For me, it would be simple. Carefully rip the block apart---------after making sure to have a good photo------which you do have.

Carefully iron each piece, and copy the main pieces to waxed paper or something similar. use the waxed paper piece to make a plastic tempelete.------you can buy that almost anywhere fabric is sold.

You'll have just a few main pieces. Identify each one by color or number or even by the position it falls in.

ONE MORE THING----note the seam allowance used by the original maker[/quote]
