How I Will Do It

It took me four tries, and in the end I had to cut something from one page and stick it on another because I didn't want to re-do the whole thing all over again. Basically every dark line you see is a seam. There will be three set in squares. Those are the dark blocks. It looks like there are four, but I won't need the one at the top because I plan to sew it a bit differently and erasing on a photocopy doesn't work very well.

Of course the finished quilt will be a bit different. Although I have a plan for how to sew these together, when it comes time to actually SEW them I will be doing it by eye so there is bound to be some variation. Also in the photo above, seam allowances are not taken into account. On the whole I think the arrangement will shrink a bit because of it.

And yes, this is hella complicated, but working one block at a time, one section at a time (I think there are 22 sections) I will make it through.

 

 This is the back of the bottom left section, seen from the wrong side.

Here I have sewn three sections together. Hint: they are at the very bottom. Since I have no idea how long this is going to take, and the pictures don't show much progress, don't expect day by day updates.

One thing however. I have had a couple of complaints that I do not show EXACTLY how I put the Fight of Fancy quilt together in my bird tutorial. (I mean, really?) I have had so many questions about it though, I added the link in the header that explains how I did it. I will DEFINITELY NOT be providing instructions on how I put this thing together.
