Will find a time next month and make the Pine Burr, 

I like foundation paper piecing

Pieces From The Past: Block 10 Russian Sunflower

 

https://melvalovesscraps.blogspot.com/2020/07/pieces-from-past-russian-sunflower.html

Again this is another lovely pattern Melva brought to us~ 

Love Sunflowers! Perfect for August in Minnesota.

It uses EPP (English Paper Piecing) method, 
I cut out some paper and roughly cut out all the fabric pieces, 
but changed my plan and used Y-seam machine piecing.

Then I found the flower ring was too big :(   
Should have resized the fabric pieces before sewing.

I had to remove one pedal, and only have 15 instead of 16. 

Then I hand appliqued the central round piece. Reverse appliqued the outer round background fabric.

A beautiful yellow flower is blooming in my back yard~ 

I have made some blocks that are similar: 

I call it "3D sparky Dresden plate"

And here is another one I made in May, 2020, same method used:

update on 8/22/2020   I also made the easy version block10A: Often

Piecing from the Past: Block 7

another nice and beautiful block,

since it is 15.5" ,will behard for me to re-size it to 4.5",

I decided use different fabrics to make a big one.

And the pink fabric was from Melva~ 

BUT.....

I connected the triangles to the wrong places!

so, it looks different than the original

I will make another one later!

OK, Here is a good one ~
