Topic: Sizzle Month 1 (1/3) - The Quilt Show Forum

Welcome, Guest

Join us on a TQS exclusive 12-month creative journey with Becky Goldsmith as we bring you "Sizzle," a stunning quilt designed especially for TQS.

Each month we will provide photos, detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, and full-size patterns. Becky has also created a selection of "how-to" videos to guide you along the way.

Let's use this Topic "Sizzle Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful Sizzle Blocks. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.
The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.
AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:

I used parchment paper but it may have shrunk so everything was great until the final seam and it would not lay flat. Added the corners anyway and then it all worked!!!

I am a bit late at the party but i just finished removing the paper off my first block. It is not perfect, but i embrace the little imperfections. One seam is giving me grief, I will look into making it better via pressing tomorrow.

I decided to go with warmer yellow and some pink for my colors, lookimg forward to see how it works all together. I will work on the block corners and hope to finish block 2 in time for the 3rd block.

I am really appreciative for Becky’s video clips they have been very useful, and found out that tweezers are a necessity!

Sorry the picture seems to be upside down.
