    Hello... This BOW started a few years ago and it still appears peeps are still working on their blocks. I purchased my book and waiting for it to arrive but was wondering if I could start my journey with you all. I'll start once I get my book and will likely start at beginning in order. Is that recommended. Or is there a better way to approach this project?

    Welcome Teen! Glad you found us. Sure you can still start your journey, we're still here It's up to you how you want to approach the quilt. You can follow the book or you can follow the order in which we did the blocks here. We started with the easier ones.
    I would love to see your blocks!!!

    Welcome Teen! Don't worry- you're not alone! Some of us have had life get in the way, so we are STILL working on blocks. Can't wait to see yours!

    It's not all that bad, we started 4 years ago and when life gets in the way, 4 years isn't a long time

    I saw that this book is available for Kindle - those that have it, do you think that would work? I know there are some applique blocks so that would take some doing, but if most are pieced with given measuerments, I figure I can make it work.

    Also - how many applique blocks are there? I don't care for applique and figured I mightd swap those ones out for something I did like.

    I would have to count them but there aren't many appliqué blocks, just a few. I'm not sure if a kindle would work. Most measurements are given, some blocks or pieces need to be printed from the book. You could substitute those blocks too though, it's your quilt

    I received my book and I'm flipping through it. I decided to use a fabric that I have a bolt of for main fabric for all blocks. It is blue/white/teal. Background fabric will be white tone on tone... Additional colors and variety fabric will be black, white on black, green, yellow, teal, blues... I think that will look pretty and a lot of this fabric is on the bolt. So I'll start simple and post pictures of the blocks as I go. 140 to go...hahaha...

    Ok...Cover me.....I'm going in....
