Flower Paths Progress

After I finished our taxes, I had time this past weekend to work on my One Monthly Goal (OMG). This quilt has proved to be more challenging than I anticipated.
It has been slow going as it's been difficult to get all the blocks sized correctly. It actually took me three tries to get those half log cabin pieces made correctly as the rotary cutting was too imprecise. I finally resorted to foundation piecing to get some of the blocks sized correctly. (I really love Electric Quilt.)

I also made the tulip blocks with paper piecing but I forgot to take photos.

I'm hoping the border is more straightforward, but there are still some more triangles to fit together.
My plan for the coming week is to keep working on this project until it's finished.

  2. Paper piecing can be a pain, but if you need accuracy there is nothing better. It's a beautiful project. Good luck with the rest of the piecing.

  3. What a lovely spring quilt. <3 Good luck with the border. Those biases can be tricky. Starching before cutting helps.
