Default Have you tried this?

If you look closely at this hodge podge of blocks, you will see some wonky
houses I made. It takes some planning to do this sort of piecing. Like
paper piecing, sometimes the pieces fail to do exactly what you thought.
Especially if you are trying to get a certain size block. And you still
need to sew straight lines, or it won't lie flat. But it certainly gives a
whimsical result that is fun.

The quilting going on here has been much too serious. I just quilted
Silly Goose and the tedium of stitching around a zillion flying geese just
about bored me to death.
Next up, I think, needs to be something like what Quiltmaker March
April 09 calls 'free' piecing. Free? Yes. I like that. Scrappy too.
Have any of you tried the 'Learn Free Piecing' or 'Wonky Town' ?
Just wondered if any one had given this a try.
