Barbara Brackman's weekly sew-along series
#2 Bessie's Sunburst
This week's block is named for Bessie Coleman. Because these blocks involve such irregular shapes and angles, the potential for biasing and stretching is a concern. I'm being very mindful of where the straight and bias edges end up when I cut, especially making sure the outer edges of the block are on the straight grain. When I did the Stars in Her Crown series, I didn't always execute that correctly, which made for some very wavy blocks!
