Betty’s charity block and a placemat

 It’s time to make Betty’s block. I have been advised to make a practice block. Well, I am so glad I did. Those angles were a challenge. 

So now what to do with it. Another placemat of course.

Now for the right block. Betty cent the centre square fabric and we were to choose the other 3 colours.

I got there in the end but ,oh my, it was tough. We were also asked to not trim the block down as Betty will do this when she has all the blocks.

Well done on the practice block and final version. Were there "y" seams involved?

It does look tricky. Great move to do a try out first.

Well done. It looks deceptively simple, but is quite a challenge.
