log cabin samples day

have to hand piece as well as machine piece for my design course
oh dear, hand piecing very hard going
have shredded my right middle finger with needle ends


metal thimble just kept falling off
need to find a better one...any recommendations?
also made a complete hash of josephine knot as could not find a pattern and tried to copy from picture...disaster
ah well, if it was all easy there would be no point in studying would there?

artists impression of josephine knot




machined onto sheeting foundation




 hand pieced with the aid of my favourite .....paper foundation, yeah!
