    Hi Barbara, Can we have a link to the GPDU Quilt pictures added to the original Garden Party home page? Or somewhere handy? It is slowly getting pushed back in the pages as more quilts are featured. It is nice to be able to pull it up for reference. Thanks for the consideration. Becky

              Alert for those who may be doing appliquick-style applique. I love doing that technique and spent hours and hours, as you all know. The danger, though, my friends, is take breaks! I ended up with tennis elbow (or is it quilter's elbow?) - I should have known, I know. It is all just too much fun - until it begins to hurt and slows one down from the whole process. Take it easy!

                The photos and the MONTHLY LAYOUT have been on the first page of the 2022 BOM--find it under LEARN. On the Monthly Layout page there is a LINK to all the photos. They are under SEE QUILTS--FEATURED QUILTS--but keep moving farther back each week.

                  Hi Barb. I am trying to find the picture of the quilt that indicates the month numbers of each section we will be working on month by month. Could you refresh my memory pls and thx. As well, a little paper piecing hint some may already know … if you have a stitch in the ditch foot, use it, the machine follows right alongside of your folded paper giving you a very accurate seam line.

                    Oops! I went ahead in January and prepped the 44 triangles that would be needed for Month 2 as per Barbara’s suggestion. I am doing hand appliqué. Turns out the third border triangles are taller than the first border triangles. Don’t think I will redo them but definitely will wait for each month’s instructions going forward.
