BLOCK # 19 - MISSOURI STAR |
and here's another one! I'm not overly pleased with my piecing on this one - they were tricky little pieces to handle... might have another go later. One thing I have noticed as I'm sewing tonight... the Bright Light makes such a difference to how I see the walking foot and edge of fabric! I think my 1/4" seams will be so much better now that I can actually see what I'm doing:-)
It's amazing just how much of my Civi War fabric collection I have used in making these blocks. I'm mainly working with 10" squares and a small amount of yardage - hence my weird and wonderful selection of fabrics in some of the blocks... but in the end I think it will all go together nicely.
I bought myself an absolutely wonderful present today but I won't tell you what it is tonight...... I will set it up tomorrow and take some photos and then I'll post about it. I can tell you that it's really old and I love it already!!!
Happy Sewing!!
