Leah Day Mystery BOM #10

Number 10 is completed of this BOM of the month series. The pebbles (stones) have a lot to be desired. Only use one thread but for those wish it had been red to hide them a bit.

I think you did a marvelous job. I got to take a FMQ class with Leah in April 2015 and I love her teaching style... she's so laid back.

Isn't Leah Day a great teacher? I took her building blocks online class and learned so much! Your pebbles are way better than mine! Can't wait to see your finished quilt!

I think the stones look wonderful. Not all stones are round or equally round. There's always littler ones to fill in the gaps & you did a great job!!

Peg, you are really going to town! Your quilting is beautiful! Even the pebbles. Ten blocks finished to my 3 not finished. What got my attention now is a new grand-baby boy who will be born in March of next year. Already purchased fabric for two different quilts. Will see how that goes.

Peg: Your progress is amazing. Can't wait to see your finished project.............are there two more? Not only are you gaining experience, your self confidence is growing. The hardest part is getting started.........raw nerve............and the rest will follow. Keep up the great work.

My goodness I wish my quilting looked as good as this!!!!! You are doing a great job!

your quilting has improved so much.. Learning things takes practice. You're definitely getting it, it looks so smooth in the quilting lines, you're definitely teaching your muscles

Thanks so much for the compliments. FMQ isn't real natural for me but it is getting to the point I can relax a little and hope for the best.

and, it is really showing. I was terrible at first, but Leah Day had a thing where she put up a new design every day, and I practiced at least half an hour each day. Then I could start seeing the improvement.I'm still not great, but I not embarrassed about my quilting. And I often get compliments

I think your stones are okay. The thing to remember is that when finished, we are all going to be in awe and not focused on any one part. I am already in awe!
