Marlys! Is that BLUE I see?? The block looks very nice - I finished min but then I looked and messed up! When I take the picture, oh,,,,you will see my mistake(S)! But - it IS coming - I promise!

Marlys

Actually, it's not blue. It just looks that way in the picture. It is a very soft , pale green. I didn't cheat, really!!!

hahah - only giving you a hard time!

OK - THIS is one reason, one should NOT be on pain meds when one is sewing! There are so many mistakes - before the deadline, I hope they will be out of my system and can post a couple more!

Marlys

I love your B & W block! I understand what you mean though about the meds - they definitely make you see things a little different! Or maybe just not see things because of the fog! Are you going to do a whole quilt?

I'm in. I like these challenges because it helps me try new things. I love seeing what everyone else does with it. Thanks for starting this.

I like the idea of a new challenge every 2 weeks! Maybe the colors could coordinate so we end up with a sampler? Just an idea.

Ok , I'll try one . Maybe it will turn out better than the last one I did !
Can I ask a question ? When pressing your seams , does it make a difference if you press them open ? My background is clothes construction and learned to press open . Now it's just automatic . Annie

No it not matter if pressed open, it seems to be the new trend to press seams open. Sort of like pre wash or not; press open or to one side.

I'm thinking I may have to pass, I still have to make June's block and redo May's.
To much time spent here on the board. LOL
