J-11

Difficulty of block: moderate

Number of pieces: 7

Method used: hand applique

Perfect placement was key with Twin Sister to keep the melons from extending past the seam lines. 

I began the week with a bad headache and ended up going with the book version of the block.  Changing it to look more like the original seemed like more of a headache at the time.  Later in the week, as I pieced my block together, with a clearer head, I discovered it would have been fairly easy to change it over.
