This block was my first attempt at sewing Y seams on a sewing machine. These are seams that turn corners, whereas normal patchwork is made in blocks where everything is joined in straight lines.

I am following along with the Farmer’s Wife Quilt Alongs on Gnome Angel and Very Kerry Berry.
We are making the blocks from the following book over the next year:
