Foundation piecing lessons...

While in Atlanta my DIL and I were foundation piecing.  We both did a simple design to start.

I decided on a Halloween theme for mine.

I love the colours J chose for her block.

The same block can look so different when done in different fabrics!

This is J's little sewing machine - it does very nice stitching...

I then carried on with this tree block....

.... and a little heart block....

... then a house block....

.... all to make this Christmas wallhanging.

We also found a tutorial on the internet to make this little pleated pouch.  You can find the tutorial here.

This is mine with a lilac lining.

J's was a bit bolder!
