    Finished the July appliques and moving on to the 9 patches. I'm enjoying all the different appliques.

    Comment


      I love all of the applique blocks but my time is limited so I decided to do stack 'n whack blocks instead. I searched several times on line for a large print fabric with the colors I wanted, but settled for a fabric I already had. I plan to remake some of the shoo fly blocks to better match these colors.

      And I finished piecing my granddaughter's t-shirt quilt and it now has a light gray border and is waiting for the minky fabric she wants for the back. There was so much t-shirt fabric left that my grandson is making at least 5 jump ropes and I've cut squares for a lap quilt and doll quilts for a great grandniece. The dozen quilts I planned to quilt in the past few months are still waiting.

      I purchased some Grafix Cling Vinyl for another purpose and discovered it also works on the back of rulers for less slippage and is less expensive than what we usually use. I plan on putting it on all of my rulers that don't already have a non-slip finish. I don't like the non-slip rulers that don't slide easily.

        Annis, Interesting approach/solution to fit your time availability. Looking forward to seeing stack n whack with shoo fly blocks. Thanks for sharing!

        Comment


          Annis - just out of curiosity , do you cover the entire back of the ruler with the Grafix?

          Comment


            I cut it about 1/4" smaller than the ruler.

            Comment


              Your blocks are fabulous & a wonderful idea.

              Comment


                Here are my next six blocks. I made minor alterations to two of the blocks .

                  Loving these applique





                  blocks,made reverse ones too. Gave up on the 9 patch blocks, life's too short! I'll figure out another way to connect them maybe later.

                    Heather, a few of the Sunday Sew and Sews are making plain 9 Patches--not double. That will work and still give the diagonal line look.

                              Quiltermine,
                              Welcome to TQS!
                              Your blocks are beautiful. What kind of applique are you doing?
                              I also admired the quilts in your profile picture. They are stunning. Beautiful design and beautiful quilting.
                              How do you like your HQ? I am pondering getting a long arm.. but don't know which one.
