Two more Gardens of a King blocks and my giveaway

I'm testing a pattern titled Gardens of a King for Missie of Traditional Primitives. I've completed two more blocks. This is the first block made using Missie's technique for English paper piecing that uses freezer paper templates and starch. The preparation of the pieces is straightforward and fairly easy. This particular block has relatively large pieces compared to some of the blocks to come. These blocks will measure 6" across when finished.

This is the second block and with the exception of the dark outer ring all of the pieces were cut from leftover bits and pieces. I'm having great fun using up small scraps for these blocks.

In case you missed it I have a giveaway running. You could win one of my scissor fob pincushions. I'll custom make the fob for the winner! 

To enter go here and take a look at the stilettos my brother made then leave a comment on that post (comments entered under this post will not be entered in the draw). Be sure that your comment includes which stiletto you prefer and what features you think are most important!

I'll announce the winner at 9:00 am October 8th. Please be sure that you are not a no-reply blogger because if you are I have no way of contacting you. I reply to every comment so if you don't get an email from me in response to you comment then you are a no reply blogger unless you provide your email address in your comment.

Until I post again, happy sewing!
