New block finished:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]321220[/ATTACH]It was pretty tricky but I think it came out nice. Still needs to be trimmed to size. Piece C isn't a mistake - I think they're trying to say that it looks like it's a 90 degree angle but it isn't, and the angle of the template is right. Using the adjusted outer triangles I used everything else went together ok except the centre red piece. I had intended to piece that onto the melons and build it up outwards from there but the centre piece template is too small. So I just reverse applique'd a red circle on once I had joined everything else together and that came out fine. And the outer pieces were applique'd too. I feel like it was a bit of a bodge job to put together but I made it work!
And on a separate note DogHouseMom's last post reminded me - it upsets me that once they retire these patterns they are selling them. How can they make money from such mistake ridden patterns with a clear conscience!!!
