365 Challenge ~ Daily Quilty Lessons






and


3" blocks finished.

I like making flying geese so the Dutchman's Puzzle block went together easily.
I have never made a Dutchman's Puzzle block before, though.
I think it was because it looked complicated to me.
Now I have learned it is not that hard at all.

Interestingly enough, it was the easy Broken Dishes block that I had to use my seam ripper on.
I discovered that if you sew the seam on the opposite sides when putting the two halves 
of the block together that you get a pinwheel block. 

I learn something new about quilting everyday ... :)

  2. Hi Pat,
    Your 365 blocks are looking good. Can't believe your first Dutchman Puzzel was this wee 3" block! You'll catch up soon (me too as I didn't sew any while I was cruisin'!) Aren't they fun to make (and soo cute!!)
    PS LOVE your Farm Girl in the Garden block.
