Curved Deficiencies

Curved Sewing and I have a rather strained relationship.  In fact, I try to avoid it as much as possible.  Wouldn't you know it, the very first block we were given to do as part of the Peace Circle for do.Good Stitches was almost all curved sewing.  I may have whimpered a bit when I saw the instructions.  I cut all the pieces out for the block and then promptly put it off.  They sat there for 2 weeks.  I tried to give myself pep talks, but finally it was the 30th of the month and I had no choice but to piece the block together.

Ya, it looks about as good as I feel about it...not great.  E for Effort, but F for Execution.  It's a large block (18"), so luckily we only had to make one.

If I recall correctly, the worst block I ever made for Wish Circle was the very first block as well, so that gives me hope that things will get better.  In the meantime, I will continue to avoid curved quilting like the plague whenever possible.
