    Hi Carole B. I am thinking of using Maywood Studio Shadow Play fabrics. They are solid with a tone
    on tone tint to them. They have 168 colors and the pictures are gorgeous. I am still working on Bloomer
    center block and have the BOMs Avairy and Full Bloom in progress with much still to do on them. It seems like all my applique is getting hand embroidery on it. I think I am addicted. Having too
    much fun. HelenW

    I know you will have a special quilt when it’s done! This is so much fun. I changed up a border on my solids sample for month 4 and planned out all of the borders for my prints sample, with a variety of changes. Can’t wait to show everyone!

    I am excited! I’ve finally finished up projects that I needed to get done before the holidays, so now I can start concentrating on my fabric selections. I’ve purchased about half of what I think I’ll need. Now just need to do some more noodling on the rest. I plan to use Moda solids and are thinking about playing with the borders and perhaps adding some wool. Time will tell!

    Looking forward to following along with you, Barbara, and the other talented quilters on the forum.

    Happy Holudays.

    Getting excited?

    Are you eager to get started with Game On!? It is SO MUCH FUN.

    Becky’s show premieres Sunday December 28, 2025 as do the Month 1 patterns.

    To get a hint at Becky’s process you can watch her 2019 Block of the Month show: SIZZLE. From about 9-16 minutes you can see how she works with vellum pages. Much of this information will be the same in Game On!

    One of the huge advantages to being a Star Member is you have access to EVERY PREVIOUS SHOW, 18 years of great content.

    Check it out: https://thequiltshow.com/watch/2019-...ecky-goldsmith

    Thank you to our Forum friend who reminded me of this—she watched and was even more excited to get her Game On!
