...and 2 more - tho I'm not too happy w/the center on the Silver & Gold block. Everything is good but it's not a point...

It's hard to get the centre right because of all those seams coming together! Once in the quilt you're the only one knowing!!
Great blocks, well done :)

Hi Anael and everyone,
Here is a photo of my completed Sylvia ! I now want to buy some fabric for the border and then ask a friend to quilt it on her LA machine. As you can see, I slightly changed the layout of the quilt and added four blocks from Jennifer Chiaverini's Loyal Union Sampler and made it 12 blocks down and 12 blocks across to make a square quilt.
I used all small print Christmas fabric and it has 3928 little pieces of fabric - (not counting the sashing) and I started this journey on the 24th March 2013.
Thanks for all the help along the way !!

Anael 06-17-2016 11:04 AM

Oh my Dotty, your Sylvia is stunning!!!!! Those Loyal Union blocks fit right in, I have that book too. I've admired your blocks while you were on your journey, I love the Christmas fabrics!
Would you please post a picture after your Sylvia is quilted?

Blue Bell 06-17-2016 03:03 PM

Wow! Your quilt is stunning. A masterpiece!

sue z q 07-14-2016 09:16 AM

Fascinated by your use of Christmas colors. We want to see it again after quilting!

Karen G 07-15-2016 04:55 AM

Aunt Jo, just put a yo-yo in the center of your silver and gold block! Make it your own!

I finally put the borders on my Sylvia :D :D

puma 08-25-2016 08:31 AM

oh my! absolutely beautiful. made with love that's for sure. I hope you enjoy it!

Anael 08-25-2016 09:02 AM

Thank you!! It still needs to be quilted but that has to wait till the temps drop a bit.

laurafet 08-25-2016 11:09 PM

Yay yay! It is gorgeous Anael!

DottyD 08-25-2016 11:46 PM

Your quilt is really lovely Anael - congratulations. It is a good feeling isn't it ? I am waiting to get the wadding and backing fabric and then I will take mine to the LAQ.
Have you decided how you will quilt yours yet ? I am still undecided whether to do each block separately ( as I did on my Dear Jane ) or an all over design !!

Karen G 08-26-2016 07:05 AM

Wow!!! My blocks are all in a bin, waiting patiently to be finished up. I spent last winter working on UFOs, maybe this will be the winter for Sylvia.

Thank you!! No, I don't know how I will quilt it. I guess it's going to be an all over design, much easier on my DSM :)

I actually made a couple more blocks amongst all the other projects...

laurafet 09-12-2016 04:31 PM

Very nice. I need to get mine back out. Maybe some time now that summer is over. Great job on your curves.

Anael 09-13-2016 06:55 AM

Oh my, you made four of those pesky ones!!!! Very well done!

That's a great idea and a beautiful runner Roma! Thanks so much for sharing :)

Bluelady 10-18-2016 09:59 PM

Oh! I started this several years ago and then forgot about it. I think I know where the blocks are that I started, just no idea whwere the book is.. I feel the need to go look now!

Anael 10-18-2016 10:19 PM

Oh yes please, and show us the blocks you already made!

Hi Anael and everyone,
At last I am able to post a photo of my finished Sylvia - which had been sent to an LA lady to quilt it for me.
I then added the binding, a label and a hanging sleeve so that I can enter it into my groups exhibition here in the UK on the 15th January '17.
It seems very quiet here and would love to see how you are all getting on with your SBS quilts.
Happy and healthy New Year from across the pond.

Wrylymax 12-29-2016 03:10 AM

Dotty, your quilt is absolutely gorgeous! You've just motivated me to move an SBS up on my quilting bucket list.

Anael 12-29-2016 03:35 AM

Oh my goodness Dotty, that's stunning!!!!! Do you have a close up of the quilting? Would love to see that! Good luck with the exhibition :)

Dotty D,
Your finished quilt is fantastic❣ The Red, green and gold are so beautiful together. Lots of wishes for your quilt to win.

I actually made two blocks yesterday to add to mine. It has dark background (corners) instead of light. These were from week 21.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]564561[/ATTACH]
I plan on working on it again in 🎉. Dotty you are my inspiration!!!👏🏻

Anael 12-29-2016 07:07 AM

Lovely blocks giquilt!! Keep them coming :)

Blue Bell 12-29-2016 04:48 PM

DottyD, Your quilt is outstanding. Your quilt will win a ribbon!

laurafet 12-29-2016 05:42 PM

DottieD-Beautiful! And congratulations on completion! Still working on mine. Giquilt, your blocks look great too! Thanks for still pushing us Anael! Happy Holidays to all!
