I broke my left ankle in 2 places on May 1, 2025

May 8, 2025: My computer is now set up in a spare bedroom so now I am able to daily updates. Since I do need help getting to my office and order processing area, in the basement, I am not able to process orders for at least a week or two. After June 20, I may only be able to get to my basement work area, 2 days a week. I am not sure how long it will be where I will need a lot of help to do what I do. I do know my ankle needs surgery, which is on Friday May 9, 2025. After that, I am not sure what will happen.

This is the 9th quilt block tutorial in a series on how to make quilt blocks using the Quilt as You Piece Method. This particular block, as with most blocks, cannot be made purely with the Quilt as You Piece method but can be adapted. Parts of the block are pieced in the traditional way, then sandwiched in the QAYP method. This is a good block to do some chain stitching!
