I was so busy last week that I didn’t get much quilting/sewing done; however, I did want to show you this. It is the Granny Square block. I found the tutorial on
Blue Elephant Stitches and had to try it. The above is the block BEFORE it is trimmed into the square.
This is the block after I trimmed it. This is a fun way to use your scraps and I enjoyed making the blocks. However…
These three are as far as I intend to go with this block. I have trouble with piecing and getting things to square up and though these three blocks may look square, they are off just a touch and that drives me crazy. The tutorial was tremendous. It is that I lack in piecing skills. I spent this afternoon turning these three squares into a table runner for my DIL. I’ll show it to you after it is finished.
I bet this is something you never before thought about making.
