      Lovely set of modern blocks!

      Comment


        The set of blocks for February has been completed. It feels like Sue Garman has a teaching moment for each of the applique blocks

          Chrys,

          Your blocks are beautiful. I love your fussy cut centers.

                Since month one, I changed my plans a little. This meant redoing the first two Shoo Fly blocks; and deciding to finish them all.

                Comment


                  I am so very impressed with the blocks that every one has posted. I found that month 2 appliqué were tricky for me. Getting everything centered was not so easy...even with a pattern and marked to follow. I have attached all my blocks so far. Whew, and in one week we will have a whole new set! The process is so enjoyable.

                      What method of appliqué are you using? Your blocks are beautiful !!!!!

                      Comment


                        TammyW, are you asking me? I use Appliquick tools and glue to turn under the edges, plus the Quilter's Select 80 wt. thread to appliqué the pieces down by hand. The thread disappears like magic. :cheer:

                        Comment


                          Yes thank you. What glue do you use? I find some glue gets really hard and is very difficult to hand sew through. Your appliqué stitches are invisible. Beautiful

                            My afternoon delight in green. It was so much fun to make these blocks.

                            Comment


                              I'm all caught up. January and February are all done, although I think I'll have to remake the red applique block - it bled when I soaked it to soften the applique paper hmy: I haven't trimmed the applique blocks to size yet - I think I'll wait until they're all done. The shoo fly blocks are so much fun. I'm really enjoying this BOM.
