I purchased this quilt book and CD before Christmas thinking what a fun project that would be for 2012. After Christmas I sat down and really started looking at the blocks and studying the CD. There are 100 blocks, size 6 x 6 finished. Most of the blocks will be done using a paper piecing method.
Now I do not enjoy paper piecing. But my Nicholson group uses another method of paper piecing that I think will make the process move along quicker. It is the freezer paper paper piecing method. Yesterday I used the freezer paper method and liked it very much as compared to the standard paper piecing method. If I can make one block a day or five a week then I should be finished by July. I selected fabrics that have a 1940 look. You can see the first few blocks that I have made.
Will keep you posted on how the project is going.
