    Becky, your quilt is stunning and congratulations on finishing it. I copied month 11 and 12 last night and realized I had 24 more delectable mountains to do and I am out of focus fabric so a trip to the quilt store will be this week. I know I can make it work somehow.

    Comment


      OK, here's mine. I opted to skip the blocks in the 4 corners of the last border, to leave some open space for quilting, and decided not to do the final outer border. The only other change I made was one of my cheater strips would have been WAY too large, so I did a 3-stipe cheater, leaving a black channel that I plan to do something fun in when I quilt it. This is my first BOM, and my first major paper piecing project; I really enjoyed working on it.... but now comes the hard part; deciding how to quilt it!



      Here's a closer view of the center....

            I'd love to see your Ruffled Roses too! I started it when Sue first gave it to TQS, but messed up the center block and gave up.

              Wow, slypignc, your quilt is stunning! I am a huge fan of dragonflies so your focus fabric is perfect. We'll be eager to see this finished--happy quilting!

                      Durstgirls,
                      I didn't run out of focus fabric, but my quilt wanted more red in it than the initial instructions contemplated. I had an extra shopping excursion, too! :-)

                      Comment


                        Slypignc,
                        Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow! I love everything about your quilt. I'm agree with Barbara . . . I'd love to see it when you finish the quilting.

                          Gorgeous! I love the black background and all the green and purple accents. I'm hoping to finish mine today.

                            Here is my finished Halo top. Finished it on Dec 1. I really enjoyed this journey and felt Sue’s Pattern was excellent. I may do Stars for. new Day next. Thank you Sue for a beautiful quilt. Wish you were still here to see it. I dedicate my version to you.
