Remember I had make FCQ Equilter blocks on my goals list for a while? I finished them. It was fun trying the background technique combining the two fabrics with an easy curve. I used the buttonhole stitch on Bubbles. Also tried the tight satin stitch on something -- I think the tree. Yeah! Mark that off the list!
Here's the completed top made with the X block from Anita Grossman Solomon's Rotary Cutting Revolution book.

ReplyDeleteI had congratulated you on your use of directional fabric but became miXed up and mistakenly referred to your blocks as Arrowheads. Anyway, what a fabulous top!
