I'm looking forward to hearing of your adventures with the handcrank machine..slow work I guess but what a wonderful link to your history! Cute little baskets - and gosh what a small size they are! With foundation piecing there's no choice as to how seams lay so nesting cant happen, frustrating - is that what happened for you? That finger lime is intriguing, I didn't know what they were all about!Raewynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123089629481933099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7845870756969337682.post-71371184317692649862018-05-12T04:08:29.154+10:002018-05-12T04:08:29.154+10:00I am loving Flowerville - have just done a Dresden...I am loving Flowerville - have just done a Dresden fan for my patchwork ladies and am keen to do more Dresden work.

Looks like you are well into the quilting.<br />And better you than me with those 3 inch blocks!<br />How special to have the hand crank machine. Hope you and hubby can get it back into working order. That would be special.<br />Well done getting the finger lime to grow. Not seen those before so now I have an idea of how they look.<br />Karen Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13465309380323203551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7845870756969337682.post-32264046490048973212018-05-11T08:07:04.353+10:002018-05-11T08:07:04.353+10:00Hi Fiona wow i love your flowerville and the fabri...Hi Fiona wow i love your flowerville and the fabrics you used so pretty.

Foundation...Love your quilting so far, looks good. Foundation piecing is good for accuracy, but I agree, when you go to join the blocks you seem to get less accuracy and I am not sure if is the way you press it (eg because your not given pressing instructions like normal piecing) or there just seems to be more bulk (when it is mini) in less space. I have found that using aurifil thread for my mini's has given me better accuracy as the thread is finer then the gutterman I normally use. If you can be bothered unpicking! It is still very cute!Sue SAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12802460291741438603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7845870756969337682.post-23560317776323333912018-05-11T03:06:03.434+10:002018-05-11T03:06:03.434+10:00I just love the way Holly Cottage Christmas turned...I just love the way Holly Cottage Christmas turned out...
