Sew a Long Block #2

 


Hello and welcome to another installment in our
Modern City Sew a Long '24


Today we have Block #2 on the table

I always start with getting the pieces I need and placing them on the desk in their order they sit in. I think I like to see what I need to do in an overview before I start. I joined my piece that needed attention and then.......


I found piece O had a wonky corner. Its really only around 1mm out where line passing O2 to O4 need to meet in the corner and they just fell short. I took my pencil and freehand drew that line back to the corner. You don't even have to do this. you can eyeball it in a straight line when sewing it. 



I made the 2 main sections and then joined those two together.


My finished block #2. It measures 10,5" when finished.




I've joined Blocks 1 and 2 together as well. The paper is still in and I'll only tear row 1 paper out 
once row 1 and 2 are joined together.


You can already see the hazy sunset and the buildings starting to appear. 

Really loving this one!!


Our sew a long is going to take 25 weeks which is really slow and making 1 easy block a week is 
also going really slow. For some that's wonderful news but for others
you may want to sew on ahead which is fine with me.

Take photos of your progress and share it with us on the FBook group page.

Join us in making this spectacular quilt or wall hanging or whatever you decide to do with it. We'll be sharing and having fun along the way.

You can join us by paying for the whole pattern up front ($25) No need for emails each week.
