Very pretty blocks, Katybob. The birdbath looks so cute. Once all your blocks are together, you'll be the only one to notice it's tilted. There are so many blocks in this quilt.

Great job Katybob on your Sylvia. I should have PP mine! Not quite done with Tirzah, got sidetracked putting stuff away.

Thank you, everyone! Only three more to go! I'll be glad when I'm finished, but I'll miss making them. Jeanie, PP is always my first choice unless the pieces are really big. I got hooked on that method when I made a Dear Jane.

Beautiful blocks, ladies... the batiks are so rich and beautiful. I love the birdbath block too. Crooked or not it's going to be adorable.

I've been toying with the idea of having some blocks set on point in the center of my quilt, and then some set straight around the perimeter. I'm really torn chosing one way or the other, because I have my favorites for setting both ways. Some just look better on point, and others straight.

Ok, here they are... only two days late!

Yup, I'm sick of making these too. Glad there are only 3 left. I still have a dozen or so of the previous ones to finish up, but I'm not going to be in a big hurry.

This year I've actually made several special quilts for myself. Never done that before! But I have my RxR, will have this quilt, also my embroidery quilt and a very challenging Hawaiian applique quilt of sea turtles and dolphins. All for ME!

Those look great SBG!

Katybob - I have done a lot of PP, but I much prefer regular piecing!

Half is still enough to make a pretty quilt.
