happy flower qal - week 9

This week, the pieced block is a combination of piecing and applique.  I made the wheel first, added the "hub cap", and then appliqued it onto the background. (If you ask me if I'm bothered that my circles aren't perfectly round, I'll tell you "not in the least", but on the inside I'll be curled up in the fetal position, gently rocking myself in comfort as I weep silently.) 

Kidding. 

Maybe. ;)

Original Block #17

To avoid that fabulously loud backgroud from showing through, I cut away the fabric in the middle after I finished appliqueing the wheel in place.

Pretty pink tulips.  My favourite! :)

Original Block #18

I reckon that wheel circle is pretty darn good, Kristyne. These are both my favourites so far

Both blocks are so beautiful! When I look at my blocks, my eye goes right to the things that I know are not perfect. I know that in the end, it will not matter. Just can't always be totally perfect!

I still was unable to find the pattern downloads. Also how do I join the block club
