        I know several participants have completed their Afternoon Delight quilt -- I am not in that category. However, finally finishing the November and December appliqué blocks is satisfying for me. Now on to putting this gem together.
        FWIW, Sizzle (2019) and Patchwork Barn (2018) still need to be completed, and yet Color My World is calling me! I remind myself quilting and creating is a process, not a race!

            Don’t know if I’m in the right place, but here’s my quilted Sequoia Sampler. It is special for many reasons but most of all for all I’ve learned from Alex. I’m very proud of this one.

              I have finally finished my Basket Puzzle Quilt top. It has been a real challenge. I’ve learned I definitely need a pattern to follow. Click image for larger version

                My 1st BOM ever started late in August. I watched all you post beautiful pictures and comments and learned so much. I thank you for all of my distant lessons. Here is my 11X 11 blocks on a hung sheet. Before I start to sew them all together and then work on the borders, please let me know if you see something that I should change. Thx all

                Comment


                  This is a second attempt at posting. This is my first ever BOM project and I waited until September to start as I wanted to read all your posts and see all your beautiful pictures. I have pinned my inner blocks on a large sheet to see what it looks like before sewing them together. You have all taught me so much and I am grateful. Please take a look and let me know if there is anything that stands out that I should change. Thx for all the great info you all shared.
