PROJECT 48 QUILT BLOCKS 2016

These are the last 8 blocks I have done in the P48Q blocks for 2016.  I enjoyed joining this group in 2016, I learnt so many new blocks and tips along the way....

I really love this completed block, however I must admit I didn't enjoy the process, it's a foundation paper piecing block, I wasted so much fabric and unpicked so many times.......
                          

                                                                     BLOCK 37

I didn't enjoy making this block either, mainly as there weren't any instructions which made the colour combination incorrect meaning you can't see the intended pattern very well. I wasted so much fabric as in the previous block. I'm not a fan of foundation paper piecing.  Maybe I need to look at a few more tutorials. At least I gave it a go.....

BLOCK 38


BLOCK 40 


BLOCK 41

This is my first ever English Paper Piecing block AKA EPP....  The pattern had another round of hexies however as I wanted to finish these remainding blocks before the end of 2016 hence the reason I left it this size.

BLOCK 42


BLOCK 43


BLOCK 46

BLOCK 47

I managed to make 42 out of the 48 Blocks, that's all I'm doing for now.  Maybe when I've got some spare time I may revisit the blocks I haven't done but they really didn't appeal to me at this point. 

Cheers
Kaylee
