That is so very cute and you are all caught up I'm so jealous. I have to do sept and I can't decide what to so. But i really love what you have done Maryanna

Don't be jealous ljs, I still have to finish July too!!! LOL. Hugs and smiles

ljs317, that's so sweet of you! But hey, you're almost caught up if you've only got September to do! So you're ahead of the game! I'm sure you'll do a great apple theme for September, apples really lend themselves well to applique.
Hugs,
MaryAnna

Well, I told myself I couldn't do Sept. or work on my DGD's quilt until I finished July, so here it is finally, all done!!!!

I'm trying to create an apple block, too, but am having a little problem. Can anyone suggest how to get the stem down into the apple instead of floating in space the way it is? I'm going to post this in the main thread, too, so more will see it.
Hugs and smiles.

I am printing out the patterns each month. But I haven't started it yet. So I am really behind!

I am in the same boat, almost... I have only one month done, and am floundering under a project someone else thinks I need to do. Isn't that always the way :lol:

Hi MaryAnna and Wildyard! Your blocks are just great Wildyard! I have not worked on August cuz I am not sure what I want to do there! Might end up doing them as is. The September block I did cheat a bit and took the look of MaryAnna's. I have to see how I like it with nothing between the blocks. Here are the blocks: I haven't appliqued them yet, I might use black thread to highlight them or brown.

Why aren't the apples falling off if they aren't sewn on yet? I don't see any pins in them. They are great apples!! Maybe I'll go the applique route, too. So far I'm not happy with my apples. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...........

LOL, the apples are held on with Heat and Seal bonding.. think that is what it's called! Yes I looked at the block and thought I would rather make the ones I have. easy way out maybe, but I do like them best! How is your August row coming??
