Technically these pieces weren't created during the 100 days, but I don't think I've shared them with you yet and I love these bright colors. Not to mention, the fact that I learned how to create them. I took a sewing class at our local Quality Sewing & Vac with my friend, Mandy. I decided to make 2 blocks instead of one. In the class I made the white background pieces. I wanted to see the contrast of a black background and a white background.
Paper piecing was confusing to me and I'm so glad I took this class. Sometimes you need an instructor that can help you work through your struggles. I didn't finish the block while at the class. I did use my seem ripper lots! haha In the end though, I'm so glad I figured it out because I LOVE the sharp angles and tiny pieces that line up perfectly!
Now that the blocks are done, I need to decide how to finish them. I'm considering making them into 2 small wall hangings. They would also make cute pillows. I could combine them into one wall hanging, perhaps adding another block or two.
