Is anyone else having trouble with the vellum "curling" after the seams are pressed? -
Yes, it curls more than newsprint BUT you can see through it which is helpful. Be sure there is no water in your iron. I found the glue stick really helps keep the fabric flat. I quickly got used to the vellum and the curling was not really a problem.

This was my practice piece. I may continue with this colorway as I love how it came out. It’s what I have in my stash so more will have to be purchased. I still have to assemble the parts but I did if all today on my Featherweight.Comment

Newsprint sometimes curls, too. When it does, it often helps to reduce the temperature of your iron. I haven’t tried that with vellum, but it might be worth a try.Comment

Great job, Denise. Your fabrics are fun!

I have downloaded the general instructions for the warm Sizzle and the instructions for the cool Sizzle as I haven't quite decided which way I am going to go yet. They are identical. Is this supposed to be?Comment
-
Yes, they are--Becky wrote the General Instructions as she made the Warm quilt. There was no reason to re-do them just to change the photos.

I love it. Are your going to use a different colorway for each block? I am thinking about doing that but not sure how it would look.Comment

I'm not sure yet, I'm going to stick with the coolish colours though. Thank you

Here is my completed Block 1.
I like all aspects of Becky's design and her instructions and videos with the exception of: the size for the background fabric. I have made enough circle in a square designs that I should have gone with my gut and NOT cut all of my fabric to her specifications. I like to have a bit more on the outside edge so that I can square up and have an easier time when sewing the blocks together. Sigh. Might be purchasing some more fabric...
Maybe others can learn from this...
but I do like my colors!!Comment
