    My older son gave me four Go templates for Christmas and the only one that intimates me is the apple core. Please say its easy peasy! Yours make it looks like I will have to do a lot of practicing before I actually do a real quilt.

    Your version is really striking. Mine was totally scrappy and not as interesting.

    great color collection... it really shows off the apple cores. I'll bet you're delighted to have it finished.

    I won't say easy peasy, but as you sew these, it gets easier. I never could decide which side on top was easier, but since there are reverse curves, it doesn't matter. Ya gotta do 'em both. Starting the pieces together is very counter-intuitive, but after that matching the pieces just before they go under the needle and don't pin. And of course, gentle, gentle. Lots of bias here. But overall, I really did enjoy making this top.

    please -- would love to see it. All of the red in this top was from scraps, but I still have more than I know what to do with so I might try it again scrappy.
