Hi all
Hmmm well I think its number 7 anyway...
My quilt blocks are doing really well so this means that I have 3 blocks to go I think.....with the Craftsy course.
But you want to see this one - right?
Well here is my first ever "chain block"
The course required you either to buy a set of templates of quarter circles or to make your own... so yes of course I made my own out of thick cardboard. I almost didn't do this but I am sooo glad I did!
These are the tools that I used:
Fiskars extra large quilt mat
Fiskars square quilt ruler
Fiskars titanium loop handle rotary cutter
Fiskars Finnish thread cutter scissors
Yes there is part two of this lesson but I haven't done it yet that block is called "Cleopatra's Puzzle block" and yes it looks awesome! But I need to get some more fabric.... arggh! I want to sew now!
Ever have that problem... run out of materials to make a project?
Believe me I have been eyeing up the summer sheets... LOL but no I need them so will be holding off till payday to get some more fabric.
Till then....
Happy crafting!

Well done Debbie, taking on the curves. I haven't given this a try, last time I did curves was when I was dressmaking. Look forward to seeing the next block.
