Arsenic and Old Lace – Block One

I’m happy with my first block. However, what is in my head is not what I’m getting. I need to take a deep breath and block out interference when I am piecing. I have crates (yes crates) of lace and I’m not organized. I’m better this time than I was when I pieced the mermaid quilt. Tomorrow I will take pictures of my mermaids and post them. Anyway….I know I have some really,really cool lace here somewhere and I need to take a weekend and just go through it all.

Below on the left is the pieced block and on the other left is the embellished block. What is really great about working in a small area (10 inches at widest point) is that I see progress quickly.

My 5 am sewing sessions seem so productive Smile
