I am progressing well on the Flowering Snowball. I seem to be able to sew about a block a night. These are hand pieced, which is why they take so long.
I am trying to decide how to put the blocks together – by machine or by hand. I am thinking that I will put them together by hand and then go over them by machine. I am hemming and hawing because the hand stitching isn’t as precise in terms of seam allowance, so I have to sew on a line rather than lining up the seam allowance. I’ll try it out and see how it goes.
I am pleased with the progression and glad I took it up again. I am really liking the way the side and corner blocks look. Another good example of self bordering success.
What a gorgeous block!
Thanks. it is an oldie, but a goodie.
It makes me smile. 😀
An excellent response!
Love the Flowering Snowball with the colorful centers and white/black backgrounds. Really makes those centers pop!
Thanks! I am really pleased with how it looks thus far.
