BLOCKS OF THE MONTH - 1st of the Month, 2011
#221
I can answer one of your questions :D
The BOM is for YOU to follow along but you are encouraged to make each block "your own" so you can certainly embellish the block any way you want. After all....since this is NOT a swap, you are making blocks for YOU so make them the way YOU want to :D
As far as your paper piece question, I don't know that you can make the block without paper piece?? I do know that I have never done it either but am hoping to use the BOM to make myself learn new things so give it a try! Use some really old fabric to practice some easy patterns first. Here is a Youtube video that might help:

I don't know how to paper piece but I want to obey the "rules".haha. Also can we embellish the blocks as desired or do we have to leave them plain? I will be watching this thread for your answers. Thank you, Patti

Hi everyone, I am tired of sitting on the side lines watching you all have just way too much fun with the BOM. I want to join this one as I always wanted to do houses. But I can't post anything because I don't have a camera. Hope that is all right.
So I have printed the pattern and in my spare time (ha ha) I will start in on the fun. I work full time, so have to wait until the weekend to start my first block. Just love seeing all your blocks and the different colors chosen, I hope I live up to you all.

I am so confused about this web site. Don't know where to post what!!!!!!!!!!!! I sent a pic of my church block and didn't appear anywhere. Then I sent another message about my confusion but haven't gotten an answer back. Could someone please explain where to post your block and where to see other blocks that others have made.
Thank you. I really want to do this.
