I freely admit I usually paper piece my patchwork, but I'm trying to learn to use the machine more since rheumatoid arthritis is really affecting both my wrists and my pinch grip of my thumbs. I find the machine frustrating, it's just not as accurate, time after time after time, as my paper piecing, but by heavens it's an awful lot quicker.
Thank you for taking the time and trouble to write the instructions out, and offering to do more !

Mary I hope you find my methods easier to do. You can make the blocks any size you like so you can control what you work with. As long as you can sew a straight seam the accuracy is more important when you cut out than when you sew seams. Makes it a bit easier to do.
