Is this not just the wildest! Your vision of it is spot on. Thanks so dang much.

And I thought y'all would be challenged by this fabric but you are all hippies at heart it seems, lol.

The blocks are great! I used fusible appliqué,then button hole stitched them on. So,which is better...photos of 4 blocks in one shot...or e- mailing them to the overworked fearless leader? I' m busy machine quilting a T- shirt quilt( with fleece backing) my daughter suckered me into. It's a bugger to keep straight..even with basting spray and pins. I'd druther sew blocks.

Joan, a couple of these are Opal so I've posted them in the correct gallery.

To those in both groups, please be sure to post to the correct group. It'll help me immensely. Also, please use BOARD names, not first names. We have several people with the same first name in this swap and let me assure you, that's pretty darn confusing but Board names aren't. Thanks, everyone, for your help.

Love the Abby Road Kass! Amazing!

For applique it depends on the project. I either do the fusible,(which I used for the VW) the way Kass does it,(but with freezer paper so no glue needed) needle-turn, or the Lori Holt way with a stabilizer to turn.

Moonworks you're going to have to finish your quilt so everyone can see. It's going to be amazing. Very creative!
