      Here are the 3 projects I made this year with the blocks used in the 2022 Videos and Blogs. Who said you had to make a big quilt?

            Janet, Beautiful quilt. Love the fussy cutting you did. That center rabbit? is really cute. All your
            fabric choices go well together. Are you doing Homeward Bound? HelenW

              And she’s done! I’m very happy with the results…both the quilt and how much I learned! Thanks to TQS and Barbara B for the advice and to Irene for designing this project.

                      Pamela, this is so beautiful! I love you made the quilt your own by making the outer border a dogtooth border. Lovely.

                      I really like your colorway! Are the vases with the bars done with bias strips? If so, is there a foundation underneath or are they open like a basket or cage?

                      Hi Bob, I made bias strips using Celtic bars, wove the basket pattern on top of a drawing I made, tacked and re-tacked onto fabric.

                      JoAnne, I too am in love with your quilt. It is stunning. Really like your using a different border color on the diamond outside border. I would never have thought of that, and I use dark backgrounds all
                      the time. I love the way it looks. HelenW

                      Dorothy, I like the super narrow blue border and the fact you put some background strips on both
                      sides of your diamond border. What are your plans for the extra border to make it queen size? HelenW

                    #15
                    i still have one applique border to make it queen size. I embroidered all squares though you can't really see it in the picture.
