I also read somewhere that when doing something that's curved on both sides (like the tails of the scrolls), you should do the smaller part first, so I try to do that by starting the scrolls just before the head, working the smaller part of the tail and then up the back side of the tail to where I started. It helped a lot when I started doing them that way.

Those scrolls are looking good, Lynnie. I don't know how you guys do those 7" blocks. Sure glad I enlarged mine.
|
Now I am wishing that I would have enlarged mine.

Lesley can you explain your boarders on the outside of the center blocks I would like to see a close-up of the border. Thanks for all your help guiding me on this adventure it has been fun. I am finishing my last block for the center and I am curious about the border. Thanks for sharing:)

Lynnie...Lesley is on vacation and out of her country right now...but I think what you are looking for is on page 490 of her PDA. The pics on that page are of how she made that border.
|
Sandpat I have no Idea how to locate this information. What is a PDA?
|
Lynnie, here's the link to Lesley's PDA at page 490. Lesley shows how she's working on that border about halfway down the page I think. http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-22961-490.htm
PDA means Personal Diary and Announcements. Some people have them, some people don't. At the bottom of the page here right next to the Topics List is the PDA link that will take you to that section. |
