The piecing an the second one could use some help. The points are not a perfect fit, at least when I was mating the strips of blocks together. But a real sweet friend of mine told me about a trick she uses to make sure everything lines up right and the points are perfect.......Starch and a lot of it!
I am starting another quilt for my nephew and I am starching the snot out of the material and oh it cuts so easily, and the blocks are matching perfectly. You can take a 4" square and stand it on end and it wont lay over just like she told me and it makes life a lot easier when piecing the blocks.
But I am just now getting into the quilting part of it and I love it!! One day I might get the hang of it but for now I am on one heck of a learning curve.
