Wonky block

 It was pretty obvious that this block was NOT going to work out using these quarter sections.  


The block is Night and Day from the Farmers Wife Sampler book, and like all of the others it's made using templates.  I was careful cutting pieces, but then lined them up slightly "off" when sewing the pieces together. That produced these wonky sections.  Oops!


I did try taking one section apart and re-stitching it.  But I quickly realized it would be much faster to just simply make the block over again from scratch.   


That was a much quicker solution and this time the block went together nearly perfect.  I'm glad the second block for this week is the Snowball.  Easy peasy!!

The Night and Day block looks pretty but very intimidating. You stuck with it and it turned out lovely.
