I was so happy to get the two pattern blocks for the QAL.
Today, I was only able to do Block #7 by SandyStarDesign.
Everything seemed to fall in place, and I was so proud of finishing it.
When I went to take a photo, something just felt wrong.
I kept looking at the pattern…then my block…and finally figured out that I had placed the center squares in the wrong direction. This of course, threw the whole poinsettia off.
After taking a brisk walk, I came back and ripped the whole thing apart.
It was worth the effort.
Good thing you went for a walk because your block looks amazing!
A good walk always clears the clutter in my brain. Thanks.
ooh — I love the colors and patterns in your poinsettia block. Elegant!
Thank you.
A walk is always a good tension reliever:). I wish you had posted the before and after photo. The finish is very pretty and I’m sure worth the unsewing session:)
Came out fantastic!
Thank you.
Looks Awesome. I need to hurry and get mine done.
Sounds very similar to the seam ripper outing experience I had! Sometimes it is best to just step away, and come back refreshed to sew again. Your block looks beautiful.
Thank you. I’m still thinking of changing the green gift.
