Well, this afternoon, I got out my sewing machine and I sewed the first block from the Art of Quilting magazine that I mentioned in a recent post.
It was quite straight forward to do. One thing that the instructions didn’t make clear was how to pin the green and red squares together so that you get them the right way round. But I was on the ball..!
The thing I’m chuffed about is that the points all meet exactly!

It’s a very expensive way to learn quilting but I would be interested to hear about the quality of the materials and tools included.
I have done loads of google review searches on The Art Of Quilting Magazine and although I too have my reservations about how much the completed quilt will cost (although you do get the fabric,magazine and asst’d gifts etc) I have decided to go ahead with a subscription and am just waiting for my first delivery. Vic’s after reading your blog and seeing your first three blocks I’m now really looking forward to starting my quilt. I shall be two/three weeks behind you so have bookmarked your page so I can get a sneaky peak of the next ones! Keep up the good work!
