    Oh, thank you for teaching me how to put the pieces together, especially with extra 1/4 inch on piece A and C. That makes so much sense now. I'm forever fiddling with the pieces trying to piece them together, but the end results were always twisted. It's precise that 1/4 inch makes so much sense.

    I can’t remember exactly which brand it is, I bought it once at a trade show. It basically is a bit shorter, clear material and open, so you see if you would produce a pucker and can avoid it in advance

    thanks for the pattern hint, Brigitte. That block from her I saw on Pinterest was actually my inspiration. It is so stunning! I drew mine a bit thicker, so it is not exactly the same thing, but this overlapping segments idea of the circles is just great! I’m happy so many people are willing to give this challenging block a try.

    Yes, but please don't ask me about the specifics 😂. I once bought it on a trade show and can't remember the name or brand. It is a clear foot, a bit shorter than the usual one, and also open. These features help to see in advance where your seam goes and avoid the puckers.

    @@ZenChicQuilting ❤️❤️❤️ the whole thing was so contrived for attention and sympathy from the person that did not have a copyright on the pattern and we live in 2020. Easily triggered people reinventing their own history That block was just a fun sweet block that I have an olden quilt that has that block in it that was made in 1950. Julie, I am so grateful for Brigitte and her enthusiastic fun creativity and for sharing that with whoever wants to try
