Shoo Fly Blocks

I had a free day today 'Home Alone' and managed to sew my 14 Shoo Fly Blocks for the Mystery Quilt from Issue 1. I think I am happy with my choice of colours. Well, after sewing 14 blocks, I will have to be!


Also, good news. My hanky linen arrived in the post today. I ordered it from E Bay in the USA and it arrived in Spain within a week. Fantastic! The postman must have known I was itching to start the stitcheries.

  1. they are so perfect, I am a little scared about starting mine... I have a tendency to not have pointy bits meeting where they should be :O!
    The colours look really great too!

  3. To Q... take a look at the tutorial 'Tips for Accurate' piecing on my blog www.SewHappy.Me. It should help you with those pointy bits.
