As a result, there is no back wall on my little church (only way to make it line up with the roofing). And I will appllique the windows, door and steeple when I make the next one.
If I didn't know what the pattern was, I would never know that you are missing an end. I say keep it as is - when the rest of the 'houses' are added, your Church will blend right in. |
I am so thankful this block came when it did. My grandmother passed away last night, at 98. The family decided that since she quilted so much, they wanted a flower arrangement around a quilt block. We will be using this church block for that. It was pure fate. Thank everyone so much.

I finished my bom church and I had a lot of problems..this was my first attempt at PP. The biggest problem I had was at the end when I was trying to remove the paper. It loosened my stitches and I did have problems lining things up. It would of help if I had a picture to go by.. I think I will print out a pic of someones block when I attempt the next one. This one is falling apart at the seams now.. :( So back to the sewing board for another try. The roof is not fitting very well either.. any suggestions of things to do on my next attempt???
