Purple Puzzle Quilt Progress
Thank you all so much for your kind words and encouragement. The last few days have been spent tracing knobs onto Heat N Bond, cutting them out, ironing to fabric, cutting THOSE out and finally placing the knobs and ironing them on. This photo is before I ironed them on but this will be the placement. One is missing from the photo because I didn't notice that it fell before I took it.

I'm so glad you posted the link to the original because I had no clue where you were going! Your fabrics are gorgeous and I admire the amount of work you're doing to add the correct "knobs" to the neighboring squares. Good job!

Thank you Tartan and QuiltnNan!

Update: Slow Progress
I dont have a new photo taken yet but my quilt is progressing nicely after a minor setback. I was a little over enthusiastic when trimming my first two squares and more fabric was required to replace them. All the knobs are sewn on, the squares basted to batting and the first two rows are quilted! I haven’t been able to work on it as much as I’d like to but it will be done in time for our trip in November! I’ll post another photo as soon as I like take one.
