Well, thank you all...Lesley, I am kinda keeping track of the hours. I didn't do that on Jane and wished that I had. I'm not doing it to the minute...but fairly close. Its just one of those interesting little things to keep up with :wink:

Patti, your scrolls look fab!!! I'm a big chicken to try needle turn. I, like you, learned back in the 80s to use freezer paper, & that was how I did JJ. Looking at LBB, I think I may try NT on some leaves, if nothing else. I do need to be more open minded - if I can just get Lesley out of my head! She's in there reading my mind. :)

well my block 17 is still a WIP and my scrolls are just not what I think they should be. I have beeen working on this block 3 days and I only have one scroll put on I had to go to the next block before I had a melt down. Well back to the blocks. Maybe I will show block17 when I finally finish it , or maybe not. have fun

I think watching this has helped thank you for taking the time to find this and share this with me
Oh dear Lynnie, that sounds so sad, I am really sorry you are having such a problem.

I looked for a Youtube video that might help - I couldn't find one the way I do it, but this might be an alternative way:

It would be the second half of this that you need to watch, and using her method would need quite a few tiny snips in the seam allowance to get nice curves, but it could work quite well.

Greenini looked at my scrolls yesterday and said I may be a little to critical she said that my first one didn't look to bad we thought maybe I need to make a Y snip into the curve of the scroll. I will post pic when I am finished.

Well done Patty, that's one of the harder ones, so you have that cracked, you can reward yourself with an easier one!
