On this 4th Saturday I continue working on my Just Takes Two quilt. I actually started on the block yesterday while Eclipse was being quilted. My plan was to use interfacing to turn the Hawaiian block since I do not applique. It might have worked, but I picked a very light weight interfacing and my tools tore it. So my next attempt was the block in the lower right corner with a heavier interfacing. It turned well, but came out too small. So I tried again. This time too big. At that point I said to heck with it and just traced directly on the fabric then did a small zig-zag along the edges. Since that worked, I attempted the crescent moon and star. Finally I tackled the Hawaiian block. Next up is a paper pieced star, then this section will be complete.
As this is also the last day of the month how about a up date on my February goals. There were 5.
