    I've got it half done. I finished the double 9 patch squares and I'm trying to decide if I want the same coordinating block or a different one. I've been playing with different blocks in EQ7 for a while and working on other projects in the interim.

    Easy .... well the pieces are small, and there are quite a few of them. But it's strip pieced so yeah, in a sense it's easy.

    The best thing I can recommend is keep your seams super straight. With small pieces like that, a small error in seam allowance is enough to throw the whole block off.

    When you sub-cut the strips, keep re-squaring the strip iif necessary - ever 3-4 pieces.

    It's very easy to chain piece. I made mine by cutting enough strips to make perhaps 15 blocks at a time and I kept my pieces in a tray to keep them sorted. I would then pull pieces from the tray to pin and chain piece. Mine is scrappy.

    Also, startch, starch, starch.

    Good luck!! And be sure to show us yours!!

    Just because there are a lot of pieces doesn't mean it's a difficult quilt. Just keep all the parts and pieces in the right baggies and it will be a snap. Great pattern to use up your scraps.

    Hi, I bought this pattern also. It looks like it SHOULD be easy. Those are the ones that really throw me for a loop. When I make this one it will be a very scrapy one. My friend saw the pattern and asked me if I had lost my mind. LOL
    Good luck to who are making this one..

    After posting, I was wondering if we could double the size of the blocks? That would take away the problem with small pieces.. Right?? wonder what it would look like? hmmmmm might make it easier.. Have to think about this
