Jane Stickle Cyber Sew, week 18. LS1, H9, B5, B7, B8

Why am I nervous about B7- world series?? How should I make it? I suck at applique, so I don't want to make a circle and applique on the middle, or the sides. Should I just cut out the templates and go that route? Did anyone redraft it and would be willing to email it to me?

Rachael...the tri isn't bad...go look closely at the pic of mine...I pp'd it by printing an extra copy of the "block", then I just cut it in a couple of sections, pp'd it...
On B7, I appliqued mine so I can't help you much on that one other than to suggest that you just cut the templates out. Others seem to be able to sew a curve much better than I can...I'm pretty sure you are one of them. The curve is pretty gentle...so I'd try that.

okay, no bullsh**** here...how bad is this? I think I will re-do it, because I actually really dislike how the fabric looks. The print is too big and it gets funky when reconstructed into the block. But this was me really, really trying. There must be a better way!! Any thoughts? Is it awful? I'm trying to keep the "grand scheme" in mind too...

If you look at the bottom of the bookmark shape, and the two strips of light fabric that go on either side of the point of the bookmark shape, one is much longer than the other one. If you can put those right when you redo, you will have cracked it.
I think what I am trying to say is that the left side of that bookmark shape is great, and the right side isn't quite the same.
