My needle moves sideways to get a scant 1/4 " seam but as long as you are consistent it should all match up in the end. I still have to ease a few corners here and there, and sometime unpick a bit and ease when I sew it.<br />I did try the "wonky" blocks that were everywhere last year but did not like them.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406981075860636289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541083431029092303.post-3422401093057302492015-02-16T09:05:03.445+00:002015-02-16T09:05:03.445+00:00Love your scrapy quilt, I'm aLways in awe of y...Love your scrapy quilt, I'm aLways in awe of your sewing Pam, its always very precise, your seams match perfectly, mine are always a bit wonky :-)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11228988475838309316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541083431029092303.post-61125090456550307272015-02-16T07:24:24.117+00:002015-02-16T07:24:24.117+00:00I am having fun choosing all the fabrics, today wi...I am having fun choosing all the fabrics, today will bring a few more blocks.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406981075860636289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541083431029092303.post-41793973003261453132015-02-16T07:23:36.825+00:002015-02-16T07:23:36.825+00:00I usually make a frosting and top with walnut halv...I usually make a frosting and top with walnut halves but decided that I would rather have a bigger slice of cake. I hope to make the block today, and have just found another quilt pattern to add to the Wish List.

My mum used to fill hers with whipped double cream too. Mustn't think about it too much...I'm trying to eat healthy for a few days after having a bit of a pig out this week. Can't wait to see the sewing machine block when it's done. I finally got round to cutting out some more fabric for tote bags this morning but sewing will have to wait for a couple of days as I'm off to Maidstone tomorrow for DD2's trial run of her wedding hair and makeup.
