I was hoping to finish the pointsettia tonight but my iron just bit the dust. I don't think my mini iron will work too great on this many pieces. The pieces are all ready to go on but I have to finish sewing in the blocks. I just got one row messed up sewed to the last row so have to tear it back out. I know the way things go sometimes.

It really isn't that bad. The 2 " blocks are all laser cut and come with the kit. I have the fusible with it and the grid on where to put the different color values. Ten sew the rows all one way then iron to one side and sew the other rows then you can start putting together all the pieces of the flowers. There are papers to show you how and where to oplace them all. The cutting out of the pieces is the worst. I have little pieces all pinned to my ironing board. Kind of looks funny. Just hope that iron will work tonight or I'll have to stop.

Wow, that is so beautiful! Even after you tried to say it was nothing! You just followed directons! I know how hard it is to follow directions, and even with all the pieces precut, it was a lot of work! Just say Thank you! you did a spectacular job! :lol: :lol: :lol:
