Jenny's blocks



Hey Jenny!
I had fun playing with your blocks,
I went wonky woo!
I had enough
so I made you two...

Like my rhyme?

Package in the mail to you today.
have a great day!

Looking ahead to my turn

I took a class on paper piecing this week. Two full nights, about 9 hours total, and I managed to complete two carrots. LOL! But they are pretty carrots. I'm building a veggie garden. I actually have 3 other carrots nearly put together, just have to attach the tops to the carrot part.

Anyway, I started looking at free paper pieced blocks online and look what I found!

Would this be something you would be comfortable with? The blocks are 3 x 3 inch so I was thinking that all four together would be a good block size. Everyone do a chick and 3 eggs. What do you think? Is this something you have tried before? Does paper piecing scare you?

I may just have Cadbury Easter Creme eggs on the brain though LOL.

March-ing blocks:)

hi! I'm back in my life again! I just got the March package and am thrilled that I get flying geese; it's one of the few blocks I have a little experience with! One quick question, Jenn, what size do you want the geese sections to be? or did you explain that and I missed it?

happy sewing today, everyone, I know I'm excited to have a chance to just sit and sew-it hasn't happened for a long time around this house!
