A3 - Hunter's Moon

This the first block that I made back in 2000-03. I'm not totally sure when I actually started my journey and I was very new to needle turn applique, but I look at it now after many quilts made with needle turned applique and it still looks ok.

C8 - Hani's Crown

What a mess! Foundation paper piecing is definitely not my forte.

The US dear jane group threw out a challenge to find who could put the block together in the fastest time. I came nowhere near the fastest and now that I look at the block it is definitely wonky.

I can live with the middle square but will be redoing the rest of this block at a later date, hopefully by then I will be more atune with foundation piecing.

F2 - Kaleidoscope

This block is paper pieced and consists of 24 pieces. Easy to do but takes time. When I took this photo the block hadn't been trimmed back to its correct size of 5" square.

All my blocks so far

I have now taken photos of all my blocks and I'm dumping them here hollus bollus. I will slowly go through them, name them and talk about my sewing technique for each one at a later date.
