Yay, I finally got it done. My sewing machine is acting weird, it doesn't seem to be tying, so my seams come undone. I shortened my stitch length to 2.0 and it's a little better.

Thanks about the colors! I'm having fun with them, hard to plan which to put where. Thank you for the suggestion. So you think my machine is ok, I just don't have small enough stitch?

Love the colours you have chosen.... when I'm doing PP I use the 1.5 setting on my machine.... it's a little slower.... but doesn't rip away when I take the paper off....

Hello Everyone............I see the month of August is about to come to a close, so I hope that everyone has had a good month & still staying with us in making your blocks. I love each & every block that has been shared so far & hope you enjoyed this pattern that I picked for August. I haven't commented on this thread for several days, as my Mother is very ill & is in end stage renal failure. She is very comfortable for now & we are so thankful for that. I am looking forward to the September BOM block pattern & I hope you are too. Have a great day & be thankful for all that you have!!
:D :D :D :D |

I hate this block! lol It's got the best of me! I've been slow to make it and every time I sit down to do so, there is something wrong with what I do. Now I thought I am almost done have all the pieces and now get down to 3 and the blocks were on that printed sheet that I didn't select actual size! lol It's larger thankfully as I have no more of this center fabric but I can use it. I thought there was only one now I just found out there are 2 more! lol But I am determined to see the last of it! lol Pray for me as I do need it! lol
Hugs, Cajun |
CZ, I made mine the 'big way' too. I like the looks of the larger pcs..
Cajun, so just make the larger version.. I made the 4 blk one, but like the bigger one better. I can't imagine YOU having problems, guess we all have a block that will stump us, I've sure had mine..lolo Jean |

This is the first block that shows the center stand out so nicely. I had to go back to see if this was the same block. Amazing the placement of color shows an entirely new secondary design. Nice job. |

LOL! For someone that is experience in Paper-Piecing this block has been a thorn in my side for almost 2 months! Everything I did I had to rip out and redo, then I got it so I could put the last section together and 3 of the blocks were larger than the 1 that was correct size. So I had to reprint and set my printer to print Actual size. I know this of course but some how didn't do it for all blocks.
Then I've got 3 of the 4 sections together after a lot of ripping and resewing! Ready to put last together and it goes well.....NOT....put it together wrong! lol I almost trashed it. Came very close but I just can't do that no matter how much ripping I do! Oh almost forgot, it was together and good. Then I realized that my theme is black on white, white on black with touch of color. There was no color...frantic I picked up my Fabric Crayons after consulting with Jean...added that touch of color. Whew! So here it is in all it's glory! Hope to never have to make another one! lol Hugs, Cajun PS. It was not the block, the ole devil has been after me for two months. I have spent more time repenting on my knees due to his pressure. But I the Lord and I have prevailed, need a new bottle of Anointing Oil though! |
Well your coloring job looks perfect!! Glad you broke the hold that the "devil" had on you. Can't say I like the block and would do it again but I must have been in good hands with some state because it went together okay but mercy it took a whole lot of time. :D
