Handpieced QAL - Week 2 Link-up

Welcome to the 2nd link-up for the Hand Pieced QAL!  We are so excited to see what you have made!  Find the tutorial for this week's block here.

This link-up will be open for one week - until Thursday, February 7 (4 am ET/1 am PT).  You are welcome to share any and all of the blocks you completed this week.  When this link-up closes, a new one will open (magic!) so please don't worry if you fall behind.

Perfect Piecer / Famore and Robot Moms sews

This week's prize bundle includes a Jinny Beyer Perfect Piecer, Famore snips, and unicorn thread gloss from Robot Mom Sews. These items are never far from me when I'm hand sewing!

The Jinny Beyer Perfect Piecer is a simple tool designed to help quilters achieve perfect points and even stitching lines. The Famore EZ Stitch Snips are perfect for all sorts of needle arts and allow you to get under those tiny stitches for easy removal. And the Robot Mom Sews Unicorn thread gloss conditions your thread to make it glide easier through fabric and it helps eliminate unwanted knots.
