Over at the<b><a href="https://www.flickr.com/groups/2761813@N25" target="_blank"> PIPs</a></b> round robin an addition was needed for Susan from OZ. Top left was Susan's starting block. Underneath that was the sweet potted plant by Jan from the UK. Then keeping the theme Ethne from the UK added the half pot in the center. Onward to Scotland where Lynz added the four wee succulents. Of course the theme had to continue so I added the "window mullion" and the other half of the pot and a wonky cactus. Didn't mean for it to be wonky....stuff happens!;)</div>

November's <b><a href="https://www.flickr.com/groups/2845212@N23" target="_blank">Challenge</a></b> was nine Churndash blocks in whatever color you wanted finishing at twenty inches. Well....I'm not very good at math.</div>

I only needed 36 half square tringles, 4 for each block, to make the churndash. I made 72!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also didn't follow directions and finished at 20"x 24".</div>

My boss went to Amsterdam meeting up with one of our loyal online customers. This lady does amazing hand work...in fact she will have a quilt in Quilt Mania soon and I don't think it's the first time! She showed Carly how she prepares her bits for hand stitching....a tracing wheel and a piece of leather! </div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;"> (I used a piece of pleather...worked fine.)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Carly knows I love to do handwork and not only showed me this new way but bought me a lovely wooden handled tracing wheel. All you do is trace your pattern piece on the wrong side of the fabric and the edges curl up....turning under so easily!</div>
