Now Sarah...I'm not sure whether to stand in awe...or bow down to your ability! Stubborn or not...you've done a fabulous job without any (as my DH would call them) "Cheats"!

well, we will see if i get all my blocks and tri's done by about the 23 of may. that is what i am working towards. but the last couple of days have been slowwwwww. just getting a couple done per day. M6, TR13 today. it's been several hrs, and cooked supper, company, etc. can't remember if i did any others today or not. getting old...... oh, and worked on that one just to the left of the center green one. i think. the star, with the little tiny, tiny pieces in the center. got it about half done.
i guess i'm fibbing. did another one also. G 12.

OK, I'm up to the scallops. Where do you start? I want to do a little deeper and all in one strip. Do you do both sides and then the top and bottom and how about the corners? Any advice is welcome, I want to finish this! Did you piece the batting?

Here Jan, I did a tute on the scallops...well, I show how I did them. I did them deeper and all in one strip. Hope this helps you. If you have questions, I'll see if I can help without Lesley being around. She is on vacation and you know we rely heavily on her expertise! Try this though.

Two questions Patti. I reread your tute BTW and will follow along but first, did you have the backing included with the top and batting? You mentioned three layers? Also did you sew all four sides on before marking the scallops? Did you start on the sides or top and bottom? I quess that was three questions. LOL! I was thinking I'd sew the backing on last so it would be one piece. ???????????? Thanks!

Thanks for the tute Sandpat, I think I will do that round my quilt as that is how SHE did hers!
