Here is mine , so far. I am missing some points... thought I was being very careful... these little 3 inch blocks are a challenge.
Thanks for looking. |
I think your blocks look great. I thought about joining and tried a couple of blocks but was too small for my patience level at the time. I applaud your tenacity, keep up the good work.
|
very nice like the colors!!!
|
I've been collecting the blocks but have yet to start. 3" blocks do not turn my head any.
|
Any 3" block is a challenge. I am not a member of Facebook.

Fabulous! Just love the colors.
|
Looks neat but a lot of work!
|
Wow....Looks sew great and kudos to you for keeping up...alas I'm behind and envious of your progress....
|
Just beautiful! Congratulations on taking up the challenge.
|
You are doing really well with this challenge.
|
A great effort with lovely results.
|
Wonderful! So far all I've done is download the pdfs of the squares . . .
|
I'm collecting the patterns also. After I finish the block of the month I'm working on, I will start this one.
Looks GREAT! Nancy |
Your quilt is beautiful! You are definitely patient.
|
it's looking great so far!!
|
Your quilt top looks great! I had thought about starting this but was afraid with working I wouldn't be able to keep up with it!
Please continue to update us on your process. |
That is beautiful!!! And obviously a LOT of work. You have to feel good about this quilt...and quit thinking about the points you aren't happy with. Think of all the points you ARE happy with. There are lots.

You go, girl! As for me, I find a 6" block to be way too small for my liking.
|
Have all the block patterns so far, but have not started putting them together. Yours is lovely. BrendaK
|
I would have to make them larger than 3 in. if I was to make them. Beyond my patience level.
|
Very pretty and looks like a very tedious job. You did a wonderful job.
|
Congratulations on staying with the challenge! Soon you will be 1/3 rd of the way through the year.
I am saving all of the block patterns. I did the January blocks and a few in February and March according to the directions. My original plan was to use them just for ideas and probably enlarge them. I may still go back and do that although I know I will end up with a variety of sizes of blocks because the number of pieces in each one varies. I'm glad to see more 6" blocks now. I love to read the history of the blocks and am very grateful to the creator of the challenge. Connie |
Looks great. I've been saving the patterns. Am trying to get some UFO's finished so I can start something interesting like this. Love your color choices.
|
That is wonderful! You are doing a great job with those 3" blocks.
|
Your block, so far, is absolutely gorgeous! You have done an outstanding job! I, too, am making the blocks, but mine does not look nearly as good as yours. I thought the six inch blocks would be easier. Wrong! Yesterday's block was made up of four three inch blocks. At least, today's block was somewhat easier. Keep up the awesome work!
|
Looking good!! Nice work, and great colors! :)
|
Sure is looking good! Keep going and keep us posted.
|
Interesting kind of challenge. I really like your colors and those blocks are so pretty. As I look at the calendar you are about 1/3 of the way to finished. I wish you continued success because what you have done so far is really nice. Keep posting your progress.
|
Very nice looking quilt.
|
Great job on that challenge! I've printed out most of the blocks, but not all. Some did not appeal to me at all, so I'm hoping to substitute a different block for them. I haven't started sewing yet, so who knows if that will ever happen. Also, I'm planning on a scrappy quilt. Time will tell. But your quilt is looking mighty fine!
|
Very nice - 3 inch blocks, whew -- you did great.
|
Very nice so far!!! This is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay above my challenge rate....LOL.... but I have downloaded the files and I'm thinking about doing only the ones I really like in a bigger size per square.
|
I'm doing it too, and keeping up.
One of the rules I made for myself starting, which has helped me to keep up, is that I do not rip out seams and redo blocks, even if I make a weird inversion or have a blunted point. I figure that with a quilt this busy, being super persnikkity about tiny variantions simply won't pay off. Plus which, it's symbolic. For a block a day, there are going to be some blocks/days that just don't go as planned or which aren't my favorite. So far, I've only "cheated" / substituted a technique on one block -- that wretched 6 inch block with 18 mitres -- so not my thing. Your photo looks great. Are you adding more colors with each additional round of blocks, or are you sticking with the established color scheme? So many decisions. |
I am only at 21st January, I need to seriously spend some time doing this to catch up.
|
I admire your tenacity to make such tiny blocks, it's a great quilt. I can admire it, but I'm afraid I could never make one, blocks are too small.
|
Good Job!!!! I am stuck at the end of Feb. Haven't had time to work on them. I have printed all the days though so I hope to get caught up eventually.
|
That is just beautiful!
|
Great job. Sounds hard but you are nailing it.
