Trying something new.
I love batiks, and autumnal colours but have decided to challenge myself with a completely different type of project and it is certainly that! I was gifted a Carl Hentsch book and have been using several of his blocks to make a quilt...well, that's the plan......I'm sort of going for a garden theme. I plan to use a different floral feature fabric and accompanying complimentary colours for each of my rows. The blocks are 10" and each row will have 7 blocks. Each row will have a different styled geese and blades pattern, using Carls' foundation paper pieced blocks from the book. So far, I've done 2 blocks and am exhausted and looking for my sunglasses LOL!!!!
Whilst I am very comfortable with fpp, curved piecing is certainly a new challenge for me! Any advice or tips for curved piecing would be great!!
