Pam your quilt is beartiful and awesome both! Aggi, Summer? Blah I want summer to go away here, bring me back spring with nice cool weather. This hot is horrid. So I stay indoors with the AC.. Even Fall would be better then this heat. Actually I like the Fall. It is beautiful and the weather is just right. Okay enough of that. Pam, Chele I guess you two are staying with Orange Squeeze? I can't because My main color is gold. Now that I see the orange in it I really like it. Hope I like mine as well. :roll: :D Anyone else naming their quilt?

Hi everyone, not sure if you are ready for this or not but I am getting ready to post a lead for a site that is doing a Quilt Along. The quilt is all vines of flowers appliqued. So if you are interested here is the site but I am posting it in leads also with directions (not that we need them) :D

OOPS Almost forgot this. http://www.cottonspice.com/blogs.htm

I had a lot of fun making with a group of others too, made it more exciting being able to see everyones different steps. Would for sure be interested in doing another. Great work folks, you all champs :thumbup:

ooooooh Donna Rae now that is just unfair!!!!!!!!!! LOL another project to play with!!! I wont' be able to work at it yet, but I'm DEFINETELY going to print off the patterns with each installment and eventually make it! I looooooove applique!! hmmmmm this got me thinking... I usually work on my cross stitch during my lunch hour across the street from my office at my aunt's place. I am almost finished that cross stitch.. hmmmm maybe once I finish it (just got a little bit of backstitching left to do) I might get this project started up and work on the applique at my aunt's place! DOH!!! and before that I had planned on another cross stitch!!! sigh.. work is DEFINETELY getting in the way of my play time!

Thanks so much for sharing this website! I loooooove that pattern, and I'm DEFINETELY going to make it

Cheers

Hee Hee I am too because I also looooooove Applique. I downloaded the first step and it "appears' that it is going to go slow, but we all know what can happen with that. Well I am almost finished with the baby quilt. I have not even posted new pics of Orange Crush yet. Have not totally completed it. Close though not as close as most of you and Aggie. Well off I go to sew, Have a good day everyone!

I just received an email that there is an updated download so I downloaded it and read and it says that each step will be a month apart. That is great. That is a lot of time. The only thing is the first step is you have to make the background quilt first before you start appliquing. Makes sense. I am not going to be a dummy this time, I am going to make it larger from the get go. It is a full size so I am going to make it a queen. I will just add a different flower(s) and use some of the same leaves from the left side and put the new vines on the right. See look at me plan. Hee Hee. Now only to put my actions where my mouth is......(or should I say typing fingers is) lol :D

Donna Rae are you adding just one more flower strip to Queen size it? I have a queen size bed too. So that might be a good idea

DonnaRae

I don't know yet, I have not figured it out but I will in a little while and let you know. By looking I think it may be more then one strip or just one strip with wider borders. Wider borders would be easier, but for sure at least one more strip. Hey even with the one more strip we can put in our favorite flower. :D

thats very true Donna Rae!

Well it seems we have been sooooo quite. I did not have this in my favorites and had to look 4 pages deep to find it. Hello everyone. I guess we all have been working on other things. If anyone comes up with another myster let us know. I am thinking of posting for a strip sway. If I do it won't be for a while but I did it once before and it is fun. Well by all for now. :D
