Welp, I guess you'll see when you get them. They're all on their way to you!.. The last 2 sets of the red and green and the 2 sets of the blue and white..

When you get them, be kind.. I've been sick and PMS is due to strike at any moment! :lol:

i suffer from PMS too so i know what you're going thru - i get a migraine for 4 days.

its good that you use the same paper as me, i go thru about 800 sheets a year so i'm sure i can figure out where it went wrong and tell you how to solve the problem so it won't happen again.

i've rec'd your 2 sets for the blue/white swap and they look beautiful.

i've figured out what happened with the paper piecing of the H4 "eye" block - its a very common problem that people have when they first start paper piecing.

i'll try to explain it in words and when we start the cyber block party i'll prepare a tute.

in this example you had 4 sections that had to be sew to each other and in those cases you should remove the paper from the seams before joining to each other - this way paper doesn't get trapped behind or in a seam.

so you would make the 4 sections as normal, then you join 2 of those to each other, and then finally you would join those 2 sides together to join the block.

so once you've sewn the 4 sections into 2 sections you would pull off the paper from the joining seam, then join the 2 sections to each other to form the entire block.

at this point the block is finished and all paper in the seams is already taken out so nothing gets trapped behind a seam.

i'll post finished pics of H4 that i've done and maybe that will show what i'm talking about and the next time i do a block like this i'll take pics the entire way so you can see step by step.
