Hi there...thanks for putting my picture up...glad you liked it. I am afraid I have taken the chicken' sway out of doing the rolling in clover block. I couldn't get the 'strange pointy shape piece to work without..having no material...or very little on the inside edge of the bend.... So I cut the shape into a trapezium and a titchy triangle...and have sewn them together... And then inserted it into the block...that way i am more secure in knowing there a 1/4 inch seam..or there a outs...so it should stay together longer incorporated into the final'design'. Loving the different techniques...though am really becoming a convert to the first method we used. Thanks for adding something to my skill set!...the material was won on a giveaway...not my usual choice...but I am enjoying the effects and trying out wackier colour combinations. Best wishes...and happily sewing away two of these blocks again.... Looking forward to next month's adventure...thanks Wendy WBooth-Boyd@hotmail.com
