Thanks very much Patti! That helps alot! Boy, Kelly sure saved the toughy till last! Almost last that is. I dread doing the kites but maybe they will be easier than they look.

I'm finding the kites to be a little challenging. I've done 2 of them so far....the last one I did had 66 pieces! I have 1 more of the really hard ones, then just the one with the melons. I'm going to embroider label information on those pieces (like Lesley did- I don't think she can come over to bash me on the head for copying her, so I feel pretty safe in doing that..:wink:))

I finally got TR10 finished with some help but guess what? Two pieces if my pattern were missing and that's why I couldn't get it to work. I couldn't believe it!!!!!! After I jerry rigged it together with the help of Patti's tips and some extra fabric it fell together. I truly thought I was losing it! Thank goodness it's done!

Picture of Week 56, with all the trials and tribulations!

Jan - they look wonderful!! Congrats!!! Happy Dance for you :thumbup:

You know, the missing pieces seems familar, they were missing from the software pattern right?

Janstar

They must have been Meredith because I went back to mirror print the pattern and I got the same thing. It was quite confusing. I really didn't think I should have that much trouble with all the experience we've gotten with this quilt. Was beginning to doubt my sanity abit! LOL!!

Thanks for the HAPPY DANCE!!!

Yippee...finished!!! Sorry I didn't know about the missing pieces on that tri. I only printed out the actual block so to speak because I knew I was going to cut it up and pp it. Hopefully others trying to work on it will read this far down in the thread to know that...

Jan...all of those look so perfect and crisp...very well done girl! I can't wait to see yours all together...are you going to QAYG? I was thinking you intended to try Lesley's way..

Janstar

Thanks Patti, it's a great feeling to be this far!! Yes, I'm going to do it Lesley's way but first am going to start the kites. Hope they are easier than the last tri. LOL!!

I hope it helps others to know about the missing pieces too. If they follow how you did it they will have better luck. Thanks again!

I admire everyone who can stick with this project. I just love seeing everyone's blocks. It gives me hope that I can start my DJ next year. Thanks for sharing.
