Patched Works 100 Blocks of Summer–Block 24

Block of the day: #24

Section: Rectangles

Featured Quilter:  Susie

Susie says:  Pay attention to layout before you sew the rows together. Treat yourself to a new seam ripper. How about a some new pins too?  New tools are wonderful!



Additional blocks made by:  Jen & Mary

 

Mary says:  This was another scary block!  My strategy for this block was to maximize my cutting accuracy as there are 21 pieces to sew together and it couldn't be done with strip piecing.  I did this by using my June Tailor Quarter Cut ruler to cut all the pieces.  I also pressed open every seam with my mini-iron to keep the strips as flat as possible.  Mission accomplished!  I'm gaining confidence with every block.
