I am working on block B3 - Mirror Image.. I decided to try and hand sew. It actually wasn't as hard as i thought it was going to be and so far isn't really time consuming. I don't think my stitches are as small as they need to be but I do think it gets better with time. I did get a little bit frustrated. I mean you watch you tube videos of others hand piecing and they just zip through it likes it's nothing. I mean just because they have been doing if forever means nothing right. I figure I should be able to zip through just as easy...well, maybe with a lot more practice. So off I go to make some more of these little blocks, did 2 yesterday and cut out this one so maybe after the dentist today I can zip through a few more.
I still have to press this little guy, I've only finger pressed so far. I have 3 more to make then I can put this little bad boy on the design wall and move on to more intricate patterns. I think they will get harder the farther along I get.
I have done 18 1/4 /225.....just keep sewing, just keep sewing.
