This is called "Missing Your Kiss". Our first lesson in wonky type piecing. There was a cutting error in my book that I alerted the students to. But apparently it was caught and fixed in subsequent printings. Some of the students had the same printing as I did, and some the newer books. So far that is the first error we've seen.
This one is called "In the Window". I really liked making it. I had some acrylic templates for the curved parts that I used instead of the one in the book. It made my circle a tad bigger but the look is essentially the same.
Students don't generally have time in class to finish each block which means I have to wait until the following month to see their creations. I am so impressed with their progression and creativity.
Here are just a couple from this last time:
 |
| Dorothy is scaling down many of the blocks. Here she made "Stuck in the Middle" at 6 inches and put four together to make a 12 inch block. |
 |
| This is Glee's "Fussy Cut" block. She didn't like the yellow she used so she painted over it. Our first surface embellishment! |
I'm learning too! I am excited each month to share new techniques and see what the class came up with from last months.
