Quilting lessons - Two more blocks finished

I've now finished blocks 5 and 6 from my quilting lessons.

Block 5. Honey Bee

This block is machine pieced and needle turn-appliqued by hand, using the freezer paper method.

Block 6. Dresden Plate

This traditional block is paper-pieced and appliqued

I loved making this block as it was what I know and is the method I use to make most of my quilts.

I have never tried sewing curves using paper piecing before so that was fun to try and not as scary as I'd thought.
