Feedback suggests that this is one of suckiest blocks in the series, but it was nowhere near as horrible as I imagined. (Although now I have looked at some others, turns out the centre night not be right? Oh well, it all fits together and I didn't have any squares left over.) I did purchase some 'Laundry Friend' and it makes seams crisp and flat! I like it. However, the can says highly flammable and that the user should avoid contact with the skin. Hmmm.
It's another big block - 36" or 91cm. And I think it would make a nice little quilt on its own. I have used the same grey with white spot and Schmidt floral, but a different green from the first block.
Now I am all caught up with those blocks, I might get to binding making for one of the small quilts I said I would get finished this 'quarter'.
snap.. I've been busy making this block too! Yes, our versions do look different, but I'm all for personal variation, adds to the fun! Love your setting, Linda
ReplyDeleteI think your centre is the same as mine - so if it is wrong, we are both wrong!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great and I don't think there's anything wrong with the centre, at least as far as I can see! I looked for starch at the supermarket but they only had Homebrand stuff which was lemon-scented and I just couldn't go there. I know there are fancy starches available in the States and UK, wonder if anyone carries them here?
ReplyDeleteGreat looking block. Definitely could be a little quilt.
ReplyDeleteIt looks very nice! Where did you get Laundry Friend from? I use Crisp from Pak'n'Save. Starch seems curiously hard to find in NZ
