    I was just wondering if anyone besides me is making the Hobo quilt? I have started mine and if anyone else is doing it, I wanted to see if they knew there was a fabric line made for this quilt? There's all the fabric's that are used in the book. I will post a few pictures of ones I made so far. Thanks for looking.

    Your fabrics look good! They look official! Nice work! Sorry that I have nothing to compare to yours in the same category.

    Great job on the blocks. I started one in the spring, probably have about 20 blocks finished. Just using scraps for mine. I've had to put it on hold for other commitments that I've taken on but will get back to it late this year or early next year. Have you decided how you are going to put the blocks together - there are some neat options in that book.

    what is a hobo quilt- it almost sounds like a scrappy quilt. Is it different?

    Not sure just yet, but thinking about it. I have many UFO'S as well, I have the Civil War Quilt Diary almost done, I have 40 more to make out of 122 blocks.

    It's a Civil war quilt and it has stories in the book about the Hobo's. Very intresting, I love to read them.
