Hi OK 
I decided to redo the wedding chain block. I know I won't like the background colour after all and this qult is a lot of work so I want it to be what I really want. I'm a bright person......hahahaha so bright(er) it will be!!

Blocks look lovely, Anael....I like your basket, too. We are of like minds. I didn't want a big block of solid color on top of the background of that block. And, I like the redo of wedding block. Looks great. The poppie block has a circle to applique once the block is done. It was so much easier to PP, at least for me. Glad you received your GTSB book finally. I haven't had any issues with pattern yet so hopefully you won't either. I'll share if I do.
Are you using Appliquick method? If so, do you like it?

Thank you both!!
Yes I'm using the Apliquick method, of course!! Otherwise I wouldn't have finished this fast haha! I like it. The points still need some attention but I'm happy with what I did.
I only did these threee blocks so no issues yet! A lady on Facebook just said the GW was a fun but very frustrating pattern. I guess she didn't have the second edition of the book. She's also planning a second GW hahahaha. I almost ordered solids in blues/greens/yellows and oranges but I didn't!! I was very brave.......

Oh...I'm so glad you like that technique. With anything, you'll get better at the points with practice. I think they look great. Your berry circles look perfect so it looks like you got circles down pat....
I was organizing my sewing nook and patterns last night and looked through GW book. I'm not motivated to start that quilt yet. I think I'll wait until I move.

Thank you Don't start, you'll create an UFO and you don't want UFO's!!
I was looking at the double drunkards path and thought 'what if I make a drunkards path and applique the Mm part of the double one on that one?' What do you think? I don't see myself sewing those three parts to make a double drunkards path. I hate curved sewing!!
