Well, Soma is super supportive and encouraging so I decided to jump in. Not wanting to repeat anyone else's ideas as well as make something manageable, I went with a play on "Keep Calm"
By no means perfect, many things i'd change.. but i'll take it :)
As I was making it I adjusted the pattern pieces making them more blockish letters versus the pattern which is curvier. Also, this is a 10.5" block which means... those letters are teeny -- if you're new to paper piecing, tread carefully.
The PDF's and templates are available. I will be updating them because for some reason the numbers did transfer over to the PDF file. (I spent hours trying to figure out EQ7 with this one) - I'll figure it out and get them up for you.
Be sure to check out the rest of the designs, there is some serious talent in this group and I cant wait to try the patterns out!
I love your Keep Calm !!! And the letters doesn't look to hard to make .... I did make the block on day 19 Trick or Treat and those had MANY tiny pieces hihihi .....
