September's Weeping Lilies

[Margo C.]

I tried very hard yesterday NOT to start on my BOM!! I printed & got everything together (had already gotten close on fabric choices) so I can carry it with me, but I figured since I was home I'd better concentrate on machine-things.
But then George wanted to go for a swim, so I just HAD TO carry that little bag right out with me while I Life-guarded Again, the sacrifices we make... :roll:

I just printed out the pattern and have tentative fabrics chosen...but I have just cut over 30 strips for a Kool Kaleidoscope and am anxious to get to that. What a dilemma. :cry:

Same here, printed out the pattern, but that's all. Had some more urgent projects going. But it's next on the list!

I've finished the September block yesterday, well all except the 5 yellow/orange berries, those will get done tonight, and I should be able to post tomorrow. Since I had no plans yesterday I thought I might as well tackle the block and get it done. I can't wait for the IQF and see the current BOM on display and equally interested in seeing the new one starting in January. Fun times just keep coming our way. Heidi

Heidi, you are just way to quick! I'm just now going to pick my fabrics. Looking forward to seeing your block.

Oooh, I didn't mean to be the first one done, but looks like I am. Picture is posted on my profile. I used Sue's technique of making circles, and is it very sweet!

Just got the call that my new Janome 11000 has been delivered to the LQS. But I can't pick it up until Thursday :cry: . Bummer.

Looks like you're #1, Maggie! Congratulations! And your block looks great. You should be proud!

Maggie, your block is beautiful. Love the subtle star in the background. Marge

Maggie,

Love your block! I have a brown picked out for my vase - (Great minds run in the same channel so they say :lol: )

Know you are excited about your new machine - Enjoy! and congrats on being #1.

Maggie, Love the block! Boy, you are speedy. Printed the pattern and fused all my fabrics but now I have to machine applique. Will be finished in a couple of days. Camille

Maggie ...Really like your block. I haven' t started mine yet ...just printed it out. I'm busy quilting the other eight blocks....I am going to make three wallhangings with 4 blocks in each. Don't have anyone else who needs a quilt..and I have a double wedding ring one that I made for myself. Keep up the great work. And be sure to keep us informed about your new machine. Nan

Nan, I understand about making wallhangings instead of quilts. I am making wallhangings from one of my quilt shop hop blocks (boy, is that a mouthful!)

Thanks everyone for the compliments. I actually had fused and cut out another fabric for the vase, but changed my mind, and I think this one is definitely better. This was a much easier block. I think I am going to get started on next months circles!

Beautiful block Maggie, 9 down 3 to go. Wow this year is going fast.

[Linda N.]

I've just posted the September block, berries went on early evening, hence it's nearly dark outside. Now I'll be making berries, berries, and more berries for October :lol:

Very nice block, Heidimarie! Your vase is fabulous!
