It's that time again to reveal another block in the Dearest Boy saga. Block 3 D. If you read Julie's blog today she posted her problems with this block. I too was disappointed in the instructions. Where we were supposed to put 4 hexie flowers for the block...the template was way off. Four wouldn't fit so I did....
just one hexie flower. It's just going to have to do. Be sure to stop by Karen's, Carole's, and Julie's Blogs to see what they have done.
I am going to take the month of December off. So I won't be posting photos of Dearest Boy blocks until January 15. See you then.
A couple of weeks ago I entered a giveaway on Kathy's blog for a chance to win an Olfa product. This giveaway was sponsored by Jacquelynne Steve's for her Save the Bees BOM.
This is the biggest Rotary Cutter I have ever used. I love that I can cut more layers of fabric. I was so excited to win. Thanks to both Jacquelynne and Kathy.
The weather has been a mix of rain and snow and cold.... Good sewing weather.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Stay warm and get some sewing done.
Hugs, Cathy

I read Karen's first and I must say you both saved the block nicely!! I'll go see what Julie came up with. I know Carol hadn't started hers yet. Good job!
ReplyDeleteAnd I read Julie's first. Haven't read Karen's yet. Headed there next.
ReplyDeleteYour block has a pretty center--nice fussy-cut. Too bad the directions didn't work out, but you do what you can.
And that looks like a lovely prize!
Glad you figured a way around the problems for the block. Yeah for your win! You will LOVE that big cutter. They are great.
ReplyDeleteSometimes you have to improvise. A lovely save. You and your family have a wonderful holiday.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very pretty block regardless. It makes me crazy when pattern instructions aren't clear. I just made a quilt where the diagrams were opposite of the written instructions. Of course I followed the pictures--wrong!!
ReplyDeleteYou and Karen did good!
ReplyDeleteSo happy your received your prize... enjoy!
ReplyDeleteVery lovely hexie block!
Congratulations on your prize!
