Slowly But Surely

 Slowly but surely I am trying to catch up on my Block Heads 5 blocks.  And Block 9 is completed!



 Now to cut out the next block...

Cat Sitting

 I spent a week cat sitting and I didn't take my sewing machine this time.  I should have as I didn't get anything done that I had planned on.  Oh well.  Live and learn.

I do have Block 7 done for Moda Blockheads.  


I am almost done with Block 8.  Slow and steady, right?

Blocks Five And Six

 Blocks five and six are now complete.


I think I might have said it before, I really like these blocks in the smaller size, but they take so much time to complete. Time is needed so that points match up the way they should.  It has been a skill builder!

Still Playing Catch Up

 I'm still playing catch up.  Two more blocks done for my Blockheads 5 BOM.  Here are blocks one and two.


These are blocks three and four.


 In block three, on the left, I added some of the reproduction fabrics that have a cream background.  I've decided I won't use those again.  I feel they create too muddy of a design.  Not sure if I will redo that block or not.  Once I get things caught up, I may make it again.

But I really like block four.  That's the thing, always learning and relearning.

Block 8 Group 1

I just finished making Block 8 from Group 1 of Moda Blockheads 5.



It took me more time than I thought it would.  And it didn't help that I cut the triangle pieces for the center square in a square blocks the wrong size.  And not only that, I sewed them all on even though I thought they looked wrong. Ugh.  So I ripped them out and cut new triangles and they came out great.  Whew!

As I was finishing it up, I decided to count the pieces.  61 pieces.  That is if I counted right.  No wonder it took me so long to make this block.
