Its a kind of a "mistake" block. I had picked out a pattern in one of the 100 blocks books, cut the fabric, put it on the sewing machine and when I went to sew it the cut pieces were there but no pattern. I have no idea which pattern I was going to use and now cant find so I improvised and made my own Guess the fabric came out of the book and I just tossed the book in the tub with the rest. Oh well...its a nice block to make, whatever it is! LOL

One block cut and ready to sew. During lunch will get on the rest. Finally found my book of block patterns. Put away nice and neat into my accuquilt case. Just where it should be.

Nice, Joan!

I went over to a friend's house this morning to use her long arm machine. I had a Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt that was huge... Grand Illusion. So I spent 2.5 hours squiggling and looping my way across it. It was really fun to use and I got a big quilt done so fast. Usually I do straight line quilting so I don't use the long arm very much.

SewBiz sounds like fun. Takes me over 2 hours just to load a quilt. That's why I love my sit down. But don't like ke trying to layer it all together

Joan love the block thank you so much.
I have an HQ 16 and table...I love it!! Bought a 16 sit down, used it once. Just can't get into the sit down quilting for some reason, I really should sell it. Haven't even turned it on in over a year and that was when I had the Bernina dealer do the yearly service ....maybe I should bring it to florida and try to use it.

My friend takes my quilt top, batting and backing home in advance and when I come she has it all loaded and ready to quilt! I'm spoiled....
