You will have better results paper piecing Tumbling Blocks. I tried hand sewing them together and they got all askew. Wish I had known about paper piecing 50 years ago.
Keep in touch with us all and ask questions. Learn something new every day.

Welcome to you from Maine. Looking forward to visiting your wonderful country in April. Loved it when I was there last May. I can't help with your question as I have so many questions of my own. I am not twenty............something, haven't seen that for awhile but just starting on the adventure of quilting. When you have a minute read my intro story to how I started in quilting. Welcome, welcome.

HI BenLinz, Nice to have you here! I think I would applique the pieced area onto the background. Being a lover of handsewing, I reccomend needle turn applique. I admire your courage in forging ahead into uncharted territory!
