Thank you Judy for your import and suggestions. Looking forward to this challenge. My mantra: Stay calm, stay calm, stay calm.

I love this block -have not seen it before -can not wait to try it!!!
|
Hope I get the right size on this block. Pretty interesting block as was last months block but that was a fun block so will see what this months brings.

Now that I am putting my completed sections wondered if people are pressing all seams open? There is quite a bulky area where points meet but I'm pounding them down!

I would at least press open all the seams that meet in the middle, for instance the diagonal seams in each block, and the center seams. That should help quite a bit.

The Alaska Star, our March BOM Star, is the first pattern. Hope everyone enjoys making this one. It is gorgeous. Seymoore tells me that although the star looks hard to make, it really isn’t.

Other than that, paperpieced designs don't have a lot of instructions. You just start with #1, then add #2, #3, and so on until your block is finished. Trim it, and sew it together with the other pieces you made. |
