Well after a 3 hour class....and still counting....and a super long phone visit...I'm finally back to my class project....so far I've got 2 of the 4 melon units together, how is everyone else doing? I had to haul my "junk" out to the family room to be close to the computer....so just couldn't resist a photo of the mess as well...guess I'lll have to clean up & re-mess again next Sunday.

Oooohhhhh, that bottom picture makes me wish I could come play in your sewing room! What is it about us quilters? We simply much run our fingers over any yummy fabric we see! :lol:

Your two melons are beautiful. You're making me regret I was unable to make the class.

Looks like you got the pattern down pat!!!! Great Job!

I've got 4 more sheets of paper printed out.....next Sunday, Feb 2 hopefully we get to put the rest of it together. Just now got all the fabric & machine back into the sewing room :roll:

I haven't sewn my melon pieces to the strips yet, but I thought I would post the layout. I got a little frustrated due to my lack of prep before class.

My daughter asked me to sew these around a pillow case for her. That sounds like a good plan to me!

oh ladies those look great, i was at the class then my power gave out for four hours. So i missed it, i'm going to try and do it on my own. And hopefully will look as great as yours does.

NICE!!!!

those are some tasty melons. yummmm yummm!!! :P

i can feel your "pain" thimblebug. until about a month ago, my computer and sewing setup were at opposite ends of the house. i had neither a proper bedroom nor a proper dining room. it's all in the dining room now. looks awful, but i just can't bear (bare?) the thought of dividing it up again. i'm not sure who would cry more - the computer, the sewing machine, or me. :lol:

I love the melon colors--and that is the cutest snowman!! :D Okay--what happens to these yummy melons once they're together? Appliquéd to a back? I love the picture of you working away--seems you've not a care in the world except for quilting!

Those look good nice and smooth. Anyone going to make a whole quilt :D :D :?:
