they look nice to me!

Just a heads up, did you notice on the bottom block that the bottom right corner 4-patch is also turned. Your blocks are looking really nice, glad you figured out that it was your needle so you could redo them and finish your quilt.

great job and color! thanks for sharing!

Glad you decided to give it another try. That's a sizeable investment. Looks like it will be a gorgeous quilt.

I think your blocks are very nice and we all have to start somewhere don't we???? We learn by our mistakes and move on. I give you credit for keep on trying-your results are turning out great. I really agree that is a very expensive BOM-especially when there are so many "free" blocks out there on the internet. Just stick with the members on this QB and they will be more than happy to help you.

Marcia, your remark about the 747 landing on your seams made me laugh aloud. I have been quilting for about 12 years, have a 1/4" foot, and still have trouble with accurate seams. Hope you master that part better than I have. Have fun.

Love the colors, Thanks for sharing.

Good for you. I saw that, too. But I have other ideas. It's the top left block that needs a few changes. I think the green leafy squares should make a line down from top right to bottom left, and the dark squares should make a line the other way. To do that the two four-patches on the left side need to be switched. They should look like the other top block, with rows of the same color going from one corner to the other.

Those are some very beautiful blocks. If you really like them, you will forget about how much they cost.

Update on the update: I'm doing well on this. Making a block a day. It should take me an hour, but I need to learn to slow down and stitch correctly the first time. Some stuff I have taken out twice. I have also started over several times. I"m saving my mistakes so I can sew them all together and put them in the backing. I have plenty of fabric as I bought (may have said this) a bundle of half yards and a layer cake. I have tapped into both. Shipment # 5 and 6 are fabric for setting blocks and borders and binding. I put an alert on several sites for more fabric when it becomes available. I was petrified of running out. I think I have enough now as I just bought 3 yards of the border fabric. I won't be able to sleep under this quilt as I will be worried how much I spent.

I to have had a bad experience with BOM so I do not do them anymore unless it is local and usually they are way to expensive so we have a sewing group that can work as we please and it is so much more fun and relaxing and we find so many things to do, our own BOM, round robbin, row or what we decide besides the fun of a get together at our local church on Tuesday night plus the use of large tables when needed
