I did not use a stabilizer, nor a hoop. Just be cognizant of the tension of your stitches.

I am waiting for templates to become available again so am playing around with fabric selection. I usually use every color available, but this time I’m doing “organized scrappy”!
I selected a focus fabric and 5 solids that I identify in that fabric. Had to order 3 of them - I don’t have many solids. Those are my first round….second I am choosing fabrics in my stash that relate (not much into matching) to original fabrics.
I have lots of mostly white/off white low-volumes. Plan to keep those very calm.
Hope the templates are available soon - tired of over-thinking.

Ready to tackle the background next. I think this block has challenged me more than any in the last few years of BOM's.
Carole B. When you said you were hoping it would get easier, you are not the only one feeling the challenge. I think we
are doing the hardest part of the whole quilt in the first month. So just hang in there. HelenW

Looks great, Helen! Glad I’m in good company about feeling challenged! This is the first time I’ve ever attempted a pieced block, so of course I had to do it all by hand. Today I feel much better with what I’ve done and are really enjoying it. Only need to attach 3 more fans then onto the background. Woohoo!
I put the pin in the spot on the line and go thru the line on the bottom fabric, then put a clip next to the pin
and pull the pin out. It works great. Your block is looking great, so glad you are enjoying it. HelenW

This has been a challenging block for me! I’m content with the outcome and especially like the fabrics! Barbara’s tip to cut the background larger and trim down was extremely helpful! I watched Jen and Barbara’s videos multiple times while constructing the block — great resources!Last edited by Dottie Z.; 01-09-2024, 03:14 PM.
