Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Craftsy Block of the Month 2012 »

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Whimsical


Materials

Sew Cherry

What are you most proud of?

That I finally finished. I started this block in September and just could not finish it. I found it the most difficult of them all (I haven't done the other Sept block or the October blocks yet).
Update- I finally finished the September blocks, yay! I really didn't like curved piecing and although I got better at it, I'm not sure I'll ever really want to do it on a larger scale than this.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Go slow.

I would never have thought of using gingham for this block - well done! No wonder it took you a long time - it's quite spectacular so was well worth all your effort!
