Looking great! Don't worry about a few points, no one will really notice when looking at the whole quilt. It's beautiful!

ok soglad :) here are four from this week, much easier. We apparently go from technique to technique, starting with simple-ish blocks and then going on to the more difficult settings. there was one last week with 41 pieces :)
SewNSew, We really don't hear anything from Kathryn, as far as additional tips, just the pdf each morning. If it is simple I just draw it out on scratch paper, if more complicated I print the pdf. So far they have always been just one page. If you want to see what those look like there are many pattern images of them on penterist to give you an idea. these first sets of dark 3" blocks form the smaller inner border, which is what the first three months covers. If I understand correctly many if not all the lighter blocks are 6". |
I love the subtle look of what I perceive as Australian aboriginal design prints you are using...is this what you are using? Thanks again for posting.

bringing myself to mid April.
Center section is quilted and bound, waiting for me to decide the poppy applique lay out. All the dark inner border blocks are quilted and bound except two, then I can put the border together quilt as you go. + recent 3" blocks. I'm really enjoying the process and am looking forward to the Orange and Yellow fabrics. |
nice looking quilt

Your quilt turned out beautiful. I have been printing out some of the patterns too as I am making a RxR with finished 3" and 4" blocks. It is quite a challenge to work with such small blocks.

Wow, the blocks are wonderful! I've seen couple from last year done and they are stunning. I think I'd better start on something smaller. Farmers Wife or Dear Jane.

Good for you!!

I saw this week that Paperpieces now offers a DJ english paper piecing style. If my eyesight was better I'd take that on next. I used my DJ to reach myself how to applique, using that technique everywhere I could. |
Wow fantastic job on those bitty little pieces.

I did a double sided DJ quilt. Doing that is where I learned precision piecing. If you have a 12" block you've got all kinds of give to make the next one work. Not so with small pieces. :)

Any 3" block is a challenge. I am not a member of Facebook.
