Okay, I now have my third block finished on my Modern Block of the Month and I am loving it more and more.
This month was a modern version of a Drunkard's Path block sewing half circles. There was a little challenge with the template. Once I had that figured out and that my printer was a little bit off it went together as easily as the two previous ones.
One of the things I like to have when I must copy a template from the computer is one of those 1" squares to check the measurement by. Then I know if my printer is playing tricks on me or not.
I did not have that on this pattern, so it took a little sewing with a practice block to see what I needed to do to get the proper sizing.
There are six blocks in this project and I am thinking that I want to do two runners with three blocks each and use them as window treatments in my family room. I shall decide when I see the other blocks.
But, this looks interesting to me with the first three.
If you would like to join me doing this project, take a look here:
