Quilt top now finished! Colours are much brighter than in the ‘photo, it is a dark winter’s day here! Thank you for this lovely opportunity & wonderful instructions.

Brilliant and unique take on the compass star and subtle way the colors are presented to tie the quilt together! Wish the photo would enlarge more to show me a closer view. So many elements to admire on your quilt. The Leaning Tower you created is instantly recognizable and the Eiffel tower is a standout in your fabric choices!

I’ve finished the quilting and extremely happy with the finished quilt, used 24 colors and matched bobbin with top thread. My backing is more a teal cotton shot than it appears in the photo. I substituted one of the building with a building on The Ohio State campus and embroidered the names of the 4 “corners” in a thread to match my background

Finally ready to quilt it. I have been trying hard to get this finished before the end of the year. I was worried that it wouldn’t fit together without major corrections, but it went together much easier than I thought. Thank you Barbara for all your tips throughout this BOM. I’m happy with the results.

I had the same issue! Apparently there are videos but they’re not posted in The Quilt Show the same as all other months. I truly enjoyed doing the BOM until the end my out edge is way to big so I’m assuming I’ve done something wrong, I’ve spent a lot of time and money so I’m going to do my best to finish alone.

This is my first BOM and it was a blast (well, maybe some months more than others...fitting the roads/buildings together was more nerve-wrecking than fun). Just need to give Big Ben a clockface and then I'll be ready to start quilting. The quilting should only take a couple of months...hopefully. As Cindy Needham says..."stitch every stinking seam"...and there are a LOT of seams! BTW...this was done on my first sewing machine, a 1976 Bernina Nova...worked like a charm.

Did you read the blogs I wrote to provide lots of instruction on Months 11 and 12? That is where I can explain things best and with the most detail.

I substituted Chicago’s Sears Tower (now Willis) since I’m in Illinois. Planning to add some thread sketching to darken it a bit—Also added some thread sketching to the 4 small houses to match our last 4 homes we lived in. Added some ballerinas in the inner house doors & windows. Love this BOM & can’t wait for 2022! Thanks Barbara for great teaching
That helped me actually complete this in the year it was intended!!!
