The Moda Blockheads 6 wallhanging is off the floor and ready for quilting. (The quilting will take a while because there is a baby quilt in process.)
Because I didn't want a big quilt, there is this wallhanging plus a couple of table toppers.
One of the attractions of this project was hoping that it would help my piecing be more precise. I'm now more apt to starch my fabric every time prior to cutting. To move the needle over three clicks to get the scant 1/4" seam that works for me.
Note: the three clicks may not work for you and your machine. And, not every machine has the capability to move the needle to the right, but I hope yours does.
I always was a seam presser, and I always use a regular ironing board and iron just so I will get in and out of my chair a lot. It's like extra exercise, even though the project takes just longer. There was a lot of getting up and down here.
Starting out, I didn't know what each block would look like and then how they would fit together. I used a white fabric and a blue/gray solid in each block. Even though there is a lot of movement in the quilt, that kept it from being too chaotic.
