Baltimore december block
 

Trying again to upload my december block:) Success yippeeee Have a good day Ladies :)

Very Pretty ! Did you use Batiks ?

Yes I did they are very bright colours thank you for looking :) Merry Xmas

What a pretty block. Thank you so much. I am going away for Xmas and will take this block to sew. I can see that I will really enjoy this. Once again thank you and I wish you a merry Christmas

What a beautiful block!

You did a wonderful job with this.

Beautiful block. You did a great job. Can't wait to see all your blocks together.

Very nice. I would love to have been able to have gotten in on this quilt, but I only joined the board in October, so didn't know about it. I am anxious to see the whole quilt put together.

Very pretty block!

Thank you Ladies for taking the time and the good wishes. Wishing you all a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year 2012 :)

Has anyone tackled the inner border yet? Would love to see what you guys did. I want to do something other than the tiny flowers, maybe just making them bigger. Looking for some ideas.

Very nice job!

Hello efayard this is my inner block I have a few of them to do and oh so tedious I wish now that i had made them bigger never mind I will keep going with them. Have a Merry Xmas and wonderful time over the holidays. I will be back in the new year:)

Looks great. They sure are tiny, aren't they.

I tried to add a picture of what I did. Wouldn't happen, so I will try again. Guess, I don't know how to do it. So here is the link with the pictures on it.

Capucine...your block is beautiful! You did a wonderful job!

Hi Lynn thank you one down 11 to go :) Have a good day

Very nice. I made the flowers a little bit larger and tried appliquing onto the 6" block. After I finished I noticed that the dark green leaves are showing through the lighter flowers. I'm going to redo and make the flowers even larger and may only use 3 flowers.

Yes, I believe that would work. The hardest part was to make sure it followed one another around the center square. I ended up putting the blocks together and then gluing the pieces down, so that I didn't get off center. Good luck.

Is the Baltimore BOM done now? I have been watching for more but haven't seen anything posted. Thanks for any info.

Looks stunning!

No i think there's one more to come should be out in the next couple of days i am also looking out for the block. :)

Did anyone get the January block of the month? I can't seem to find it. Thanks

I think it comes out on the 8th.

Today is the 8th.

PokerDiva, you're right...it is the 8th. I've lost track of the days. My mother passed away over New Years and I'm having a hard time. I know it will get better. I did 3 BOM's last year and I thought the Baltimore Album came out on the 8th.

So sorry to hear about your mother. The block is suppost to come out on the 8th but every since she was caught in Hurricane Irene it has not been on time. Totally understandable. I am also working on a Rose of Sharon quilt so I might just do some substitutions if I can go back and find the orignal design which like a dummy I didn't print.

I believe all the patterns are still posted - you can start it now :)

Hello littlesurfer,
I am sorry to hear about your Mum not a very good start to the year but you will always have her memories to keep you warm. Please accept my condolence time will heals the pain.

Do we have all the blocks?? I have the center and 12 blocks which I think is everything. I think I just need to decide on how to set it together and if I'm using borders or not. I might just go with sashing between the blocks and do some type of outside border. I'm just about finished December so will post pictures of what I have so far. Am I thinking right?

12 blocks sounds right, plus the large center block and the small ones. I'm going to see how many blocks I have. If we have them all, we can begin putting everything together.

This is what i have so far If that is all some please tell me what size we need to cut all the block down to:( and more instruction with the sashing. Thank you Ladies and Peg where are you? I hope all is Ok with you.

it is so beautiful. You did such a great job on it. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for looking and the compliment waiting for the last instruction :) have a good day

I think there are supposed to be 13 blocks - 1 center and 12 surrounding blocks... I am way behind on making my blocks, but these are the blocks I have in my file to do ---- unless I am missing one. If I am missing one, please let me know:

1- February - center Block
2- March - Corner Rose - one of two named blocks
3- April - Inner Border Corner and HeartWreath - second of two named blocks
4 - May - inner Border Swag and "May" block
5- June - "june" Block
6- July - "July" Block
7 - August - "August" Block
September - no block due to hurricane
9 - October - "October" Block
10 - November - "November" Block
11 - December - "December" Block
12 - January - Waiting
13 -

The one month (was it March?) was the corner block which you were to make 4 of. This should total the 12 plus the center block. I think we just don't have an outer border or the swag yet. I've been trying to arrange my blocks and decide on the setting. I've just about decided to surround the center with the applique border and also have 2" sashing between the blocks. I'm trying to come up to the same size as the center block (which could be from 16-18"). I'm also going to do an outside appliqued border. Just trying to figure out the math. Anyone else put theirs together yet or have any ideas?

Hi i am still waiting and hoping peg
will come back with instruction i need a little help if we have to resize the
blocks and adding borders etc..

I'm waiting, also.

Baltimore - with Borders
 

I have attached a picture of what was posted earlier (I think around August?) which shows the Album with the borders on it. Perhaps that would help decide if people have everything. I think it is all been posted now but if anybody needs me to go through my EQ7 and fill in with some of the blocks for them, send me a PM and let me know.

Can't wait to see them all put together.
