Here is what the fuss was all about - one blasted Ohio Star block (click on image for detail). This pic proves that I did my homework like a dutiful student and can walk with pride into the classroom tomorrow knowing I followed directions and completed the prep work! The block is rather nice and would make a lovely small wall hanging or pillow, but because it is for practice purposes, I doubt that the result will be anything I will want to use.
To my purist quilting friends and mentors, please check out my nearly perfect points on the star. I hope you are duly impressed with my progress. Of course, this block took about 4 hours to make when all is said and done. Glad I'm not making an entire quilt from this pattern. I'd be working on it from my grave.
Packing up for tomorrow's class. I still don't know how to lower the feed dogs (it's not in the Janome manual), but I'm certain the instructor will know. Details to follow after class.
