Sylvia Bridal Sampler BOW
#1171
Thank you, Anael! I'll play w/Excel.
Three more blocks today...Trying to mix it up from easy to challenging so I don't get frustrated. So far, I'm enjoying this. Going to take a short break to bind a quilt and sandwich another..
A3 - Bright Hopes
L5 - Pineapple
N9 - Broken Dishes

Teen - I like your colors. It's going to be fun seeing how our "same" blocks look, as we are going with such different fabric choices.
I spent some time and set up about 10 blocks in EQ8 - I'm only doing those that use templates or paper piecing. I was getting a bit worried as so many of the first group (alphabetically) use templates. I looked ahead and that tread didn't seem to continue.
It's fun to look at the pattern and figure out what it's divided into - had one that I went 12 as some were divided by 3 and some by 4.
I've got a few cut out, will get to sewing later.

Wow Teen, at that pace you'll be finished soon!! I love your blocks, very well done!
Macybaby, when you draw your blocks in EQ you will have to find out how the blocks are constructed. I love to draw in EQ and figure out how the block is made. I don't remember having used templates, but it's been a few years since I made my Sylvia so I might have and not remember

Macybaby.....Yes, the templates had me a bit concerned but most can just be measured and pieced like normal. Some blocks are PP when you really don't need to construct it that way...like the log cabin. Though PP does help with a bit more accuracy. I have an APP that can help with piece measurements of some blocks....I'll wing the rest. I don't have EQ so I may ask for you and Anael's guidance on some blocks if I run into problems. Looking forward to seeing your blocks and colors. Batiks 2/black is gonna be beautiful!

having completed the 365 block challenge (almost all 3" and 6" blocks) figuring these out hasn't been that hard. I did download the templates so I could measure them. I'm using my angle rulers were possible.
Right now I've got the first ten cut and starting to sew.
I have to admit I really don't want to do any paper piecing right now - but that is because I'm working on that "catch me if you can" quilt and that is mostly paper pieced. I switch over when the paper piecing gets to be to tedious.

Macybaby, Saw your 365-Stunning!! I collected all the blocks, but with all my quilting stuff currently in storage, it too is on hold right now. You will find a lot of inspiration looking back through the pages of this thread, and Anael is the best leader ever!
