Hand Pieced QAL 2019 - block 6
Here’s my version of Block 6 in the Hand-Pieced QAL.
Info about my quilt, written in a previous blog post:
I’ve decided that I’m going to call this quilt ”Discovery”, because I’m on this journey of discovering hand-sewing techniques during 2019...and incidentally also because I happened to be watching season 2 episode 2 of the Star Trek: Discovery series while I was choosing the final fabrics.
- Block info:
- the Florence-block, or a Sawtooth Stars block with a Pinwheel in the center
- the golden and brown fabrics were from the stash at Arbis.
- since I forgot to take a photo of the block before I had already sewn it into the quilt top; the dusky pink and the brown with the large violet and white flower prints were a thrift store find and I had yardage of it in my stash. The block looks more pale on the photo above than what it is in reality.
- the white with gold was from my FQ stash.
- block cut with regular rotary cutter + rulers, then sewn with Gutermann Mara 120 (100% polyester) in color 1.

Otherwise, I'm adding a skinny 1'' border (0.5'' finished) around the blocks, because I think it will look better with a little more contrast and borders between the blocks and the sashings..

This time around, I had a much easier time with matching up the points. Also with keeping the whole block dimensions, so with the 1’’ sashing around it adds up to 7,5’’ unfinished. I was pretty pleased with that :)
