Come Over to My House Blocks 3 & 4

I knew there was a reason why I didn’t do block 3 last month. You should have seen the pile of thread that I unpicked after doing the little roof again and again and again and again. I didn’t count. I should have. Needless to say, I had trouble. I am still not entirely happy with seams and points, but it is done and I am not fiddling with it anymore!!!!

Since I was on a roll (of unpicking), I decided to do block 4. I put off the triangles until the very end…… At 10.30 pm I sewed the left side of the house to the top of the right side. Should have taken a photo. It looked rather interesting. I also should have stopped and gone to bed. But no, I unpicked and sewed it in the right place.

By 11.00 pm I had managed to survive the triangles, after only a little bit of unpicking. In fact, the top of the house was looking rather nice. I sewed it all together, went to iron it, and then decided the roof looked rather odd. I should have taken a photo. It looked very interesting. Instead of sewing a sky and roof triangle onto the house triangle, I had sewn two sky trianlges. (If you are doing this block, pay attention, if you aren’t, I hope you are not getting bored here!)

I didn’t scream.

I felt like it, but everyone else was asleep, so I thought I’d better not.

I unpicked.

And fixed it.

Of course it didn’t go together quite as well as the first time… but there you have it. It is done. Please, don’t look too close. And I went to bed at 11.30pm.

Boy, am I glad this is a block of the month. I won’t have to unpick again until next month 🙂 Hee hee!
