I am not quitting, though I am going to keep crying that my quilt will look sad against all of yours, I guess I did my job if everyones quilts look better than mine does.

You can still join, there is always time to catch up, we are really not that far ahead, in fact there is someone still cutting, she only started basically last night.


we won't be laying them out until next Monday, this is like an actual class where the lessons are on a certain day, just the instructor hangs around all week to help where ever you may be in the process

OK, let me look through my stash to see if I have a fabric that would be good for this. Thanks!

Wow, everyone's blocks all look so awesome. I love seeing how they emerge from the starting fabrics. I'm itching to try one, but I have some WIPs that I need to finish before I buy any new fabric for a new quilt. I'm definitely bookmarking all these threads though, and I will be having a go at this later on!

Everyone your blocks are amzing. I just love doing this.

Cutebuns thanks so much. Whoever came up with the paper plates idea thank you. I makes transporting them easy and keeping them orgainzed. I am using a stilito to help guide them while sewing it really helps to hold onto those little tips. Also, using a wooden / bamboo presser at the machine and it is working great. I only iron press once I have the block all sewn together. Plus it saves on burning the fingers.

here are some of mine

the laying out part has me kind of worried too. but I still have bunches of blocks to make.

have a great day.

here is my fabric whole

You are doing a great job!

One point, if you are sewing them completely together you will have a bunch of y seams, now for some that is okay, if you leave them in half, it will be straight seams all of the way.
