Surfergirl and Lovely Welcome :)

Are you ladies going to QAYG your BOM's or Orphaned Blocks or something entirely different?


I will be posting more, "How I did its'" tomorrow.

My BOM! But I may practice on some orphaned blocks first, though...

Add another Canuck to the group.:)

This is looking great Jenniky and I will follow along. I don't think I will use the technique on Franky but just might if I can't find enough of the perfect backing fabric. It's the sewing them all together at the end part that I'm really interested in/worried about. Come to think of it, it just might be perfect for Franky.

And, by the way Jenniky - fabulous blocks.

Works4me - Welcome Actually When I get to the Monster quilt you will see how I go about adjoining blocks of different sizes. This technique can be used when making Medallion quilts. :thumbup: So It could be Frankie's Answer down the road. :)

Everybody - Tomorrow Im going to share how I put my quilt sandwiches together. Wednesday I will share how they are sewn together in units and depending on how my schedule goes we might get to adjoining the units into rows also. :)

... Yea!! Another Canuck to the fold! :) there's different techniques for QAYG and I'm sure that you can find one that would work for Franky! Perhaps quilt Franky as one giant block, then add the other blocks as sections to it?

LovelyL ... Of course, we'd love to have you as an Honourary Canuck! Besides O is for Ontario + Ohio and too, Ohio is just across the Lake from us! :) And you have the Wawa background!! :)

I'm gonna follow along here too. I plan on makin' my PC quilt as a QAYG. (I'm way behind on it.) I'd like ta see several different ways ta QAYG before I decide how I want ta do it. (QE - Am I messin' up your numbers?:D)
