So, this week I've been kind of lazy. My husband and I started watching Breaking Bad (from the beginning), and that has distracted me - so I've only been working on the Craftsy BOM from 2012. I blogged about it yesterday, in fact!
I have to say that Craftsy's BOM class - for the sake of Tutorial Thursdays, we'll call it a tutorial "series" - has been very good so far. I have not really learned a new technique, but it has been good practice, and I've been forced to kind of think about color matching as I go along, rather than just having all the fabric for the entire project laid out at the start (I went with the stash rather than purchasing a new bundle..)
That being said, I'm NOT going to actually post the tutorial, since I can't. You have to register on Craftsy to actually take any of their classes (it's free to register). However, I will post my finished broken spider web block :)
I just hate that my final point was off by like 1/8 of an inch.... I might unpick some of the stitches and try to fudge it a little. I haven't decided yet - have any of you had any success with doing that? Yes, it is a string block, so none of the seams are supposed to match other than around the center star.
Hopefully next week I'll have a better tutorial for y'all. Until then, share what you've been working on from a tutorial (or your own tutorial)!
Thanks for reading!
Cassie
