Do you have a tutorial on the board? I want to try QAYG also. This quilt turned out great.

It's lovely, Queen B!!
|
Queenbarbiej - I think that looks really nice - and I don't even like purple!
|
Queenb—the purple is perfect!
|
Mona G I cut a 8 -18.5" square then quartered, cut 2 - 18.5" squares cut in half and 3 - 13" squares and quartered them. By the time I am done with the top it will be 90.5" by 90.5". Thank you ladies for the complements. Now I have to get a new belt for my Federal sewing machine so that I can quilt this. I am planing on doing feathers in the purple triangles.

To make it easier to access, I copied it to a new thread in Tutorials: https://www.quiltingboard.com/tutori...o-t304427.html Let me know if the pictures don't show up. I copied them rather than upload them one by one. So I may be seeing them, but no one else. |
I could see them in the tutorial.

Thank you, Kass. Can't believe I got away with that!

Here is my quilt from Boom 21 (I think...) that I just finished. It's the one in the tute. All done now, binding and all. Thank you ladies for the wonderful blocks. I'll be making another just like it with the rest of the blocks.

Sewbiz you did a beautiful job w/ this quilt, and w/ the tutorial. Hope your pictures stay put and don't disappear.
|
Beautiful quilt sewbiz! I see the block I made in there.
|
Turned out gorgeous Sewbiz. Your quilting in the sashing is so pretty.
|
Nice, Sewbiz ! I see my block too.
|
Beautiful quilt tops ladies! Love seeing how the tops are put together..Jaba glad you made it safely home

Love seeing the finished quilts. I shared photos of my tulips (some have asked to see the spring flowers) on the Later board and realized that Sooners like signs of spring as well.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]612278[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]612279[/ATTACH]These are the ones in my back yard next to the studio. They are almost gone now. I’m glad someone asked to see them because I probably wouldn't have taken photos otherwise. |
Those are beautiful, Shannon. Thanks for sharing them.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]612148[/ATTACH] |
I do like it. I went ahead and assembled the top. It measures 90" x 90". Now I need a backing for it. I am going to hand dye some fabric. I have some extra blocks I made to put on the backside.
|
Will you quilt it yourself, QB? Can't wait to see it.
|
Yes I am quilting it myself. I am doing feathers in purple setting triangles. I will have feathers zigzagging through the quilt. I've done feathers once before and I was so happy how they turned out that want to do them again.
|
That sounds pretty! I need loads of practice before my feathers will look good, if ever...
|
My feathers aren't perfect either but I still like them because it was a design I always liked and was very unsure I could do them because I thought they were too hard. I was so happy that I was able do it that I want to try again.
|
That sounds beautiful, QueenB! I love the look of quilted feathers. I did them once on a border. They turned out okay and I want to try them again, too. I look forward to seeing yours!
|
SBG both of your quilts turned out awesome!
|
QueenB can’t wait to see your feathers.
Sewbiz your leaves flow so nicely on your quilt I bet your feathers would also. |
Thanks Terri... I appreciate the vote of confidence! Just need more practice...
|
Hello there, Sooners. Now that the blocks for Later have shipped, I’m going to take a few days off and then start working on a plan for the Joanelizbay blocks I received from you. A couple people expressed interest in helping to make a quilt so I’ll be in touch with them and keep you all abreast of the plan, when there is one. Thanks!
|
Hiya, I am getting my sooner blocks delivered with my laters and look forward to admiring them this weekend.
QBJ, I also like quilting my own quilts. Look forward to seeing yours completed. I have one larger one and I am trying to decide if I want to quilt it or have one of the many women I know with long arms quilt it. Hmmm. Yesterday, I went to a sewing party at a friend’s house and made a retreat bag. Once i get photos, I will post but probably not until next week. |

Finished! This is my quilt from Sooners, made with vintage fabric. Thank you everyone, I love it!
[ATTACH=CONFIG]612614[/ATTACH] Janice, could you put this one in the album too... also a Sooners quilt? Somehow it got overlooked. [ATTACH=CONFIG]612613[/ATTACH] |
Love them Sewbiz, they turned out great
|
Good job, Sewbiz! They're both beautiful quilts, but I really love that vintage fabric one. Yummy fabric.
|
Thank you! Everyone did a wonderful job on the blocks.
|
Oh, they both turned out lovely, SBG! I love the vintage fabric one too. So pretty and feminine!
|
Hello Ladies..Received my blocks yesterday and just wanted to say Thanks for sharing your talent with me..I love all my blocks!!
|

Good evening, Sooners. I’ve pulled out Joanelizbay’s blocks and they’re on the design wall. Time to start working on them.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]613183[/ATTACH] I have 14 blocks made by the group and 3 unused F8s that can probably be used to make 4-5 more blocks if I’m careful. Does anyone have any suggestions for a quilt or perhaps two small lap quilts? Suggestions welcome! |
Joan's blocks came out pretty... I make lap quilts with 9 blocks plus sashing and borders about 2.5 to 3" wide.
I think I am going to sign off on this thread now so wanted to remind Janice to please post my two finished quilts (above) to the Completed Boom Quilts gallery. Thanks to Janice and everyone for a great swap! |
