Losie, I, too, had a mile-long list of to-dos before I could JTG! Got them all done, finally.

I have finished the center 16 blocks & am working on Block #7 now. 1-6 are also finished. I'm doing the 7" blocks & they are so cute!

Somewhere on this Board I mentioned an applique quilt I made waaaay back in time. I promised to post pictures of it. Here, as promised are 2 pics of Rachel Pellman's Country Bride Quilt. It is hand apliqued & Hand quilted. It was auctioned off as part of a gala at out church to kick off the building fund for the new 5.5 million dollar Christian Day School. The first pic was taken with the quilt being held over the balcony railing in our church, St. Marcus Lutheran Church, Milwaukee. The 2nd one is in our guest bedroom at our house in Milwaukee before we moved to New Mexico.

P.S. - the quilt hanging over the bed is the first quilt I made where I actually knew what I was doing. Really was 4th one I made, but first made in a class at LQS in Nashua, New Hampshire. Hand-pieced & hand quilted.

SO, I am not the only one who has not started with any of the blocks? Whew!

With more mobility returning to my body; comes more routine housework I can and should catch up on.... but, ah, I would like to just sewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Someone, what's your guess as to the percentage of quilters who have already started verses others like me??? That's my question. :-D :-D :-D

There are loads not started yet, they have been so good not JTG I can tell you, all finishing up projects before they get going with this.

Kathy your Bridal quilt is beautiful, I got the book way back and knew nothing about how to quilt then, but have kept the book. See those Heart shape appliques I was thinking I could use them on AOTH somewhere. You made a beautiful job of it.

Raising my hand - not started yet.

I am guessing that there are probably only about 10 of us who are in the JTG club. Since there are about 70 who have said that they are going to do this quilt, we are in a minority - it's just that you are seeing quite a few posts of our blocks so it seems there are more of us.

I couldn't stop once I started, I have found them addictive, so I have just finished my 27th block. Sowwwwy.
