This block came from Quilter's Cache. I decided to paper piece this one because some members of the Friday Block Party had trouble with the downloadable pattern. I found that the pattern was not correct, so I got out my drafting paper and made my own paper pieces. The block came out at 12 1/2 exactly, so I know it's right.Tuesday, August 10, 2010
A Storm at Sea
This is the block I worked on yesterday afternoon. It's called 'Storm at Sea' and it is a 12 inch block. When I was finished (it took me a long time to do), it was 3:00pm and we were in the middle of a rain storm - too dark to take a photo. It is not much better today. The sky is a sort of yellow colour that indicates more rain.

Very pretty blocks, Hetty. Perfect corners and great fabrics.
I hope it did cool down with the rain!
VERY nice and how great that you were able to design your own paper-pieced version of this and have it turn out exactly right in size!!!
It is worth the effort Hetty. It is a beautiful block and so is the one you finished yesterday. Groetjes uit een afwisselend zonnig en regenachtig Nederland.

Hello Hetty , I've been looking at all your lovely blocks and quilts , you are very clever !
I've always love this block. The way the change inthe angles creates the illusion of wavy lines.
I like your block. Paper piecing it is easier.
