Block 2 Pies


I found it difficult to take a decent picture of the last 7 appliqued blocks together so excuse the crappy photo (they really need a press) :) Crappy photo or not i still want to keep documenting my Slow Progress

I found a new way to baste the fabric on the pieces which is so so much quicker , so hopefully block 3 wont take me 6 months.
Sue Daley the creator of Pie and Tarts posted THIS tutorial using SewLine Glue Pens .
It is awesome i already love English Paper Piecing and this makes me love it even more
