I wasn’t going to do this BOM-not really my style-but when I saw the neutrals fabrics that were being used for the current quilt in Alex’s classroom, I decided to use those to do GPDU. I’ve just finished Month 1 and I am having a great time. Between Alex’s neutrals, scraps from my stash and a few new fabrics thrown in, I think I’ve been able to give this a look I really like. I will be making some changes to future blocks as I would rather continue my fused raw-edge applique than do pieced blocks. I may repeat some of the floral blocks or design my own.

Finally, step 1 of Month 1 done. Lots of personal trials since Feb 22 that needed to come first. However this is first time I have ever done a needle turn project and now I am enjoying it. Not perfect but learning and enjoying the process is what sewing is all about Now on to dogtooth border

I am finally ready to start this kit, which is really intimidating. I have in many ways regretted buying the kit, but I did and I need to learn the techniques. It seems crazy to ask, but after you print the page on the print and fuse, do you cut each shape out and then iron it on the fabric? And then turn the edges under with the appliquick tools? I have never used this before.

I re-joined The Quilt Show during the holidays late last year and as Alex recommended, I downloaded the garden party pattern- but I wanted to get started on this year's BOM. What to do? Well, I have lots of fabric (but went shopping for more for good measure) and so in January I started both Garden Party BOM and Homeward Bound BOM! I am not quite done on the first month of Garden Party but plan on posting when finished. I just have the vase, the top left flower and the border to do, Shouldn't take too long...
