Quilting Class (week 2)


For last weeks home work we cut our fabric into 3 1/2 strips. This was pretty easy with the rotary blade. I think I had them all finished in about 30 minutes. I cut them up last Sunday when it was to cold to do anything other than sit by the fire and watch movies.


This week we learned how to use our 1/4 inch foot to make a 1/4 inch seam. I think I'm a little generous with my seam because my final block is a bit short. The instructor says as long as I'm consistent, it should all work out. We shall see!!!


So this weeks homework is to sew all the strips together and cut them into more strips and then sew them together to make 3x3 blocks.


Here is everyone's blocks on the felt wall.
