Moda Blockheads Catch up

In between watching the Battle of the Brits Tennis on Amazon Prime I have managed to do a little sewing.
It is really too hot to do much in the way of sewing but I so want t catch up with this weekly block offered for free by a number of different designers.

Block 23: Lucky Penny by Vanessa Goertzen. I made a sight error in the size of my cream squares, but I can live with it.
I buy my sewing machine needles by the hundred and change them often, always Schmetz 80.
I keep an old camera film case for the ‘dead needles’ and really like the little gadget I have for making it easy to change the needles, it has a hole shaped like the top of the needle which means the needle goes in the machine the right way round every time.

Top: Block 22, Hen and Chicks by Laurie Simpson
Middle: Block 19 Compass Point by Brigitte Heitland
Bottom: Block 16 Dream by Sherri McConnell

Four down and five left to catch up before next Wednesday, when block 25 will be ready to pick up. There are a total of 52 [ I think] .
