Over the past few weeks I have been doing some catch up sewing on my P48Quilt Blocks in between doing some secret Christmas sewing for two Christmas swaps.
This is Block 22, this block took me 9 hours of sewing, unpicking and sewing and that's not counting the cutting out as I had precut a lot of the blocks waiting for spare time to sew them. I didn't enjoy making this block however I very happy with the completed block.
Block 23
Block 24, this one was very challenging and also took me a long time to complete, I needed to watch a tutorial (a couple of times ) to learn how to sew the white pieces into the block......
Block 25, block piecing and some hand applique.
Block 26
Block 27
Block 28, this is a needle turn applique block which took me quite a few hours to complete, there are 3 petals to each flower. My fingers were cramped at completion.
Block 29
Block 30, this took me a little bit of time, I'm not real happy with this block but I'm not doing it again.
Block 33, I enjoyed doing this block. Yes you read correctly, I am missing blocks 31 and 32 which I still need to do.
Block 34, this is another needle turn applique block as well, I really suck at it, this block took me several hours to applique and if you look closely I only have a few of the leaf ends in points. I know you will be shuddering when looking at this Michelle. It's my first ever attempt at needle turn applique and I looked at a LOT of tutorials first but I'm still bad at it. I am NOT including this block into the quilt however I will hang onto it. I would like to do more needle point applique (maybe I need a few lessons from a professional). I can look at this in the future to see how far I'm come - fingers crossed anyway.....
Block 35...... I still have to catch up from here to block 41 which came out last Friday.
I hope you're all enjoying the weekend and the weather - looks like we're into summer now.
Cheers
Kaylee
