Oh gosh Flossy....your scrolls are nigh on to perfect! :shock: :mrgreen: OK, I guess I need to come sit with you to learn how to do that! Love your block...this one was hard for me...looks like you sailed through it!

Patti, on one of you blocks, I recall you mentioning fraying. I just got a dvd of Ellie Sinkiewiecz (not sure of the spelling of that one). She said if you're concerned about an innie point fraying, you should drag your needle through a glue stick before you turn the pointy part. She said it helps a lot to keep things from fraying. After dragging your needle through the glue, you turn your inner point and make sure to drag the glue off the needle onto your fabric. Sounds like a slick trick.

Hmmmmm....that does sound like a cool trick! And to think I have a glue stick right here beside me and didn't think of doing that! Thanks!

Thank you everyone for lovely coments.

Sandpat, it was hard for me too, however, I followed Kathy's tutorial on how to do them and it helps alot.
