Heritage Quilt

Block 10 is done and only 4 more blocks to go.

As with all the other blocks Jenny Haskins yet again taught different techniques with this one.  This time with the wing needle and ladder stitch.

I needed a 6mm double needle for this block, but could only find the 4mm so I had to make do.  Only our Pfaff dealer sells the 6mm (and 8mm for that matter) but was unfortunately awaiting stock.  All the other shops thought I was rather mad (?) even telling me I would have to import one then!  Really?

This is what the finished block looks like:
