The Desperate Housewife’s Quilt – Week 44 Sharp

May 4, 2012 by quiltjane 3 Comments

Welcome to week 44 of the ‘The Desperate Housewife’s Quilt’. Todays block is about Foundation Piecing and Curved Piecing. Remember, this is not a quilt-a-long. Just follow the blog every week and pick and choose which blocks you would like to make. I will be injecting some uniqueness into traditional blocks, applique, three dimensional, crazy and thread-art blocks. If you make a block please post it on the Flickr group for everyone to enjoy. Also, I have this nifty button under each post that allows you to save the post as a PDF.
*******************************************************************************************************
Be sure to visit this week’s Guest Blogger and their wonderful block.
(N.B Due to the differences in time and date zones, the guest blogger’s block may not appear at the time of the initial posting)


This weeks guest is the effervescent Laura Lochore from Quokka Quilts. Laura is presenting a a wonderful appliqué block representing ‘Eve and the Apple’. Well I think it looks like that.

    I'm not sure I'm brave enough to try curvy things on quilts, but this cute block makes me want to try. Love it!
