Storm at Sea quilt block

This is a somewhat challenging block because every patch includes at least one bias edge, and often you are sewing bias edges together.

It helps to measure periodically to make sure that your patches are the correct size.

Even though this looks like this has curves in it, all of the seams are straight.

Peaceful Piecing!
