\"Old<\/a>
Old Town block in process<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It is rainy and dark here, which wreaks havoc with a lot of my schedule and tasks. Still, I had a goal of spending some time on Old Town over the weekend. Despite nursing duties and regular household chores, I was able to make good progress.<\/p>\n

Late in the afternoon, after working on the 8-at-a-time technique<\/a> for the HSTs pieces, I cut a few up and was able to put one of the Old Town blocks almost together. The photo is a little dark, because of the weather.<\/p>\n

I still have a bunch of pink Flying Geese to make (I substituted pink for the red Bonnie suggested), but I wanted to see a whole block, so I took some of the pieces I had been cutting and made a set of Flying Geese.<\/p>\n

While I have to pay attention to the lights and darks, I like the way the changes to the colors work together. The pink I used for the Flying Geese is one of the fabrics that Free Spirit sent me<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you haven’t done the center of the Sawtooth Star yet, you could do different things in the center – a different block, fussy cut fabulous fabrics, a piece of fabric to match the arms of the Sawtooth Star.<\/p>\n

I am pleased with how the block looks. There are a few changes I want to make before I sew it together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
