I love sewing blocks. Not using my machine, but hand sew. Thanks Wynn from ZakkaArt for the encouragement via Instagram.
Now I have overcome the fear of handsewing, I realised I have another challenge to overcome. Choosing the fabric for each block. The problem I have is that I have too many scraps/fat quarters/fat eighths/charms in my room. (Who isn't for quilters or even for people who love to sew?)
How do you store your scraps? Care to share with me? Right now, I just put all of the same colours into one container. Not sure if there is a better way. :)
Here is the third block of the Sew-a-long - Bow Tie. You can find the tutorial via here.
I bought this from the recent detash sale via Instagram. I tend to update my #handsewpatchwork progress via Instagram. You can follow me at @joeycraftworkz and also check the other designs via #handsewpatchwork.
Till then for the next block post.
