Claire Sews and Makes

This is a record of creative making, indoors and out, in my life. A space for me to share ideas and reflect on projects. There is the bonus to reach out to other makers. I am a sewist, starting in my teens, and sewing on and off throughout my life. Largely clothes, but with forays into quilting, and the domestic homemaking projects of curtains and blinds. A lover of movement and the outdoors I am happy with my hands in the earth creating, in my minds eye, a pleasing garden space

The mystery of blocking barn squares.

Q I have been asked 'what is the round thing I use to block the squares?'
A Garden kneeling pad

Handy use for the reverse side of garden kneeler

I have marked out a square to make life easier - there are 42 of these in the quilt!
(Previously we had a supply of the foam pads from the trampoline - which once they all came off the trampoline have re-appeared in our life in many guises, many craft related uses . . .)
