Is it just me, or does this MQ seem a little more challenging than last year's? Personally I'm really enjoying the challange and tiny pieces, but I think this would be kind of hard for some.

The stitch and flip w/ the squares on the sides of the rectangle? Then trimming side triangles????? If so I have never liked that or had much accuracy w/ it.
Yeah, that's it ...... squares on the sides. The accuracy what was driving me crazy with those units in Allietare. I think I'm going to do these flying geese with the no waste method ....... easier and no aggravation. :D |
Everyone's 9 patches look great!
Wow some of you are fast!! - those Flying Geese that have been shown are nice!! Sewbiz - Hope you are healing well and feeling strong! You and Battle Axe need to use the Klutz glove!! I haven't used one but I'm thinking that I should because I can be a bit of a "Klutz"! :) Windblown - Hope you are feeling better tonight - be careful with cutting and do take it slow! Also hope your Mom is feeling better - DH and I are the main caregivers for 4 of our elderly relatives and "every day is an adventure"! :) Macybaby - Congrats on getting your quilt done!! Did I miss the pic? I'm hoping to join in soon. I will be copying Bonnie's instructions and enjoying everyone's posts. The last few weeks have been a really busy time for us with relatives visiting from out of town. We laugh that we are the "Family Inn" with the "revolving door" and like I said "every day is an adventure"! |
The no waste 4 at a time worked very well for me today. Accurate and relatively quick

GramE, tscweaves and Kassandra your units are beautiful! Kassandra I am loving the black floral print, contrasts beautifully with the brick fabric.
I am using the no waste method finished about 1/3 of them this evening. Still have Christmas cards to write and finish quilting feathers on a quilt that has to be done by next week. [ATTACH=CONFIG]584635[/ATTACH] |

Wow, so many posts I am lost trying to keep track of who I wanted to respond to! So let me just say 'many thanks' to all who have wished my pinky finger well. It still looks like white wax, but in a couple of days I'm hoping some color returns. Then I'll know blood flow has reconnected and it's going to be okay. It doesn't hurt at all!
I love your photos, block units and fabrics that you have shown. Here I am, pulling up the rear with my Clue 1s.... [ATTACH=CONFIG]584636[/ATTACH] Seams all spun... [ATTACH=CONFIG]584637[/ATTACH] |
Sewbiz, love those deep rich blues

I really like your clear white w/ those pink corals

Great looking flying geese, tscweaves and GramE.
I can't understand why anyone would not go get the free clues from Quiltville with all the handy helps. I'm downloading them to my phone to keep in case I want to make this again. |
