Remember as kids you would say Look! Look at me! Well, that's what's I'm doing.
Check this out. I finished the center block! Can you tell I'm excited?
When I first started sewing quilts I saw a feather star and thought "I'll never be good enough to do that." And I'm still not! LOL There's a few minor errors in this one. My next one will be perfect. (hopefully)
I used the tutorial from Molly's Place. I loved sewing this. She gave wonderful instructions - I mean WONDERFUL. They were easy and precise with load of pictures. THANK YOU MOLLY! My only problem was finding that 1/4 seam on my machine. I had to resew a couple seams. I should have used my 1/4 foot - well, I will next time. Molly told me to, but I didn't listen.
I looked back to see when I started this - I cut it out July 2011 - 18 month ago! Okay, I know I had some distractions - but 18 months worth? Good thing you all were not holding your breath! LOL Once I started sewing it went together very quickly.
