I, too, have never ever had a problem with anything coming from Amazon. Perhaps the problem was with the postal service.

I let them know on Thursday night and even sent photos... Haven't heard a word back from them yet! Not very good customer service!)
I hope to have my 1st block posted tonight. I must say they all the blocks I've seen have been very beautiful. Hope mine turns out 1/2 as good. I've never done paper piecing before and I'm liking it so far. OK, back to the machine! |
week 2 Alaska block
1 Attachment(s)
I was prepping for my week 2 block this morning-and House of Blues came on- i decided to stay in sewing room and work on the block while i listened to this week's program- 4 hours later it is done! it was kind of...long for one block-
and my center is a tad off- which i don't get because the outer intersections went together correctly- the center was Way off at first (like over 1/4") so i took apart the center couple inches on each side of the center and tried again- the second time it came out better- still not right on but not as far off as the first time-so-i'm leaving it. glad that one is over-and i'm 'ahead' of my game for this week :) |
Great blocks everyone!! Nice variety of fabrics makes them more fun to see! :)

All these blocks are absolutely fabulous. Can't stop my sewing to comment on each one, but just had to put this in. Nice job everyone. I really look forward to the ones yet to come and the coming weeks.

Wow ladies you have all come up with some beauties!
Klgreene - love the color on this - it looks amazing with the star done in a monochromatic scheme. PokerD- I am in love with that jazzy fabric - it looks great with the purple! Tomilu - the blue/yellow is a favorite color combo of mine, your is lovely! monalisa- I like the high contrast - it is very striking! Judy - I agree, the second block has some real zip to it. I love the fabrics you are working with! Ckcowl - I am lovin' the fussy cut, your block is very pretty! Great work ladies - I haven't even cut my Alaska yet but I hope to get it cut and started today. If I am really on my game, I may even get it posted before next weekend. haha!! keep em coming ladies! |
