Another block

[catundra]

I haven't been posting much about my quilting lately because I have been a bit preoccupied with more "practical" sewing and the quilting I have been doing are still generally works in progress.  I did however complete the first block for my second quilting bee group StitchWitches.  The fabric and brief came from girliejones who is also a member of the group

That's fabulous! The closest I've ever come to stitching curves like that was sleeves, and because they're often gathered, they're a lot more forgiving! This style block has always scared me rather!

Thanks! Yes, it scared me a bit too as I had only sewn curves I think once before this so knew the theory but had had little practice. Still for once I used many, many pins and took it slowly and it seemed to work out nicely. I can't imagine doing a whole quilt like this though!

I must say, it's one of the things I'm appreciating about the quilting bee... it's "forcing" me to try new things:-) And it's only one block, so it's achievable:-)
