Last summer I embarked on a journey for testing about 12-14 blocks for this edition of Quiltmakers 100 block magazine. I learned so much. I tested and expanded my skills and tried new techniques. I have to say that I enjoyed it so much that I am making more test blocks now. This post is 4th in the series of test blocks where I share my experiences and what I learned in the process.

This is block #758. I think this block is so sweet. I love the arch to the stem. I found that hard to do smoothly because applique is not a technique that I excel at. I use fusible webbing to iron it down. I have to say that I learned that stems are hard to do and I need to work on bias strips.
