DIFFICULTY
This pattern is for people that are confident with Foundation Paper Piecing. This pattern features the same block in two different sizes. The 10″ version is definitely the easier of the two as the pieces are larger in size, although there are some smaller pieces around the little door at the top. The 6″ block is more challenging as there are some smaller pieces and you will benefit from the use of an ‘add an eighth’ ruler. There several seams to match when joining sections (refer to green circles on page 4 of the instructions).
