BLOCK # 9 BIRDS IN THE AIR CIVIL WAR QUILT |
I have finally made the block for this week.... Birds in the Air. Now, this should have been a very straightforward block but OH NO! NOT FOR ME! It took me three attempts before I was happy! I just could not get it to come out at the correct size. I tweaked the measurements just a little and this block is the result.
MY TWEAKING....
My HST'S which form the Birds in the Air are pieced at 3 1/8" and I used "scant" 1/4" seams. My block is just a tad under
8 1/2" pieced (8" finished)
MUG RUGS RECEIVED....
I received my two Mug Rugs last week and forgot to take a pic of the little parcel - which is a shame as there was chocolate involved!! Mmmmmm... sorry, no piccy of the choccy! Tina from Canada also sent me a lovely ID tag which I have put on my Rotary Cutter.

Time for a cuppa!
Happy Sewing!!
