I've always wanted to do a Baltimore Album quilt. I found this in the BOM topics:

http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-20178-1.htm

But, I can't find anything else on it. Is anyone still doing it?

I also pm'd shadowdancer and didn't get a response, maybe she's not on here anymore? Its shows it as "unread".

I really , really love the Baltimore Bliss quilt on fatcat patterns site. Do they post one each month? It's on block 7 right now, are they ending it with the last one? Would I just be out of luck to try to start it now?

I'd love to do this as BOM on here, its keeps me working better, and where I'm such a newbie, I love having all the help that comes with doing a quilt with you guys!

I would work on your skills before attempting one of those.
You said newbie, but maybe you just meant new to the board??
Sorry if I misinterpreted!!
They are VERY labor intensive!!

No, Susan, I meant NEWBIE, LOL!!

I actually have been quilting for a few years, but have only made a few quilts. I've always worked full time, until the last year, and now I've actually got time to do it.

I am pretty good at hand applique, which is how I would do this one. You are right, though, I do need some more experience. That's another reason why I'd like to do it as a BOM with you guys.

Ah- that makes sense!! But if you do hand applique it sounds like you know what you're doing. A BOM would be fun.
I love hand applique but I just started the Farmer's Wife 2 blocks a week that some of the board members are doing and it has about a million blocks in it LOL
Glad you have more ME time these days~!

I'm doing the Farmer's Wife quilt, too. I think its a great learning experience for me! I've already learned a lot from the people doing it.

I'm a bit behind, too. I'm finishing up block 6 right now. Getting ready to do 7 & 8 to catch up. I think I'm going to hand piece 7, though, all those tiny pieces.

I'm much better at hand sewing than I am by machine. I've actually been hand sewing since I was little girl. My mom was into cross stitch and embroidery, so she taught me that when I was little girl. I just wish she had got into quilting!

It is from fat cat patterns and even if you don't have time now , I would print out or download the patterns for later.

What she does over there is put up a block a month then at the end pulls it down and sells the complete pattern ( and not very expensive, but if you want it for free get it now !)

Some one may have the blocks you are missing :thumbup:

I'm on the East coast about an hour from Baltimore. They are story quilts usually made for weddings or anniversaries and are still big doings over here. I admire them but have no wish to do the intricate ones. I like the wreaths and flowers.

Does anyone have the first 6 they could email me?

I, too, want to make a Baltimore Album quilt.

I just finished a double wedding ring wallpattern.

It turned out so pretty.

Karen, it is lovely!!! You did a great job :D
