| I had some time this weekend to take a look at my Afternoon Delight Block of the Month pattern. The first month of the BOM has us making two pieced blocks and four applique blocks. I decided it would be a good idea for me to cut all 40 of the applique backgrounds from my fat quarters before I start chopping them up for the pieced blocks. I cut two eight inch blocks from each fabric. These will be trimmed down to the finished size after the applique is done. |
 |
| I'm not going to only do two of these blocks. There are nine of them in the pattern and I will cut and sew all of them now while I have all the fabrics out on the cutting table. This block is going into the center of my quilt. |
 |
| I've got a good start on the remaining eight and may take them along to quilt camp tomorrow, although I do worry about using my Bernina to finish them after mostly piecing them on my Juki. I guess we'll see how that goes. Off to finish packing! |
Ohhh i love your conversation prints !! Great blocks 🥰
ReplyDeleteI love Afternoon Delight by Sue Garman. i will cheer you on from the side line. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks (I call them Prairie Queen blocks). It is one of my favorite block patterns. It looks really cute in the fabric you have chosen.
ReplyDeleteI got the instructions out and read them through. My applause patterns printed out too small. I'll have to figure out how to get my printed to print them full size. This hasn't happened before. I'm looking forward to getting started!
ReplyDeleteThese are delightful blocks, Karen. I love the block pattern and your background fabrics add so much interest!
ReplyDeleteWe ll organised with your block making. They look good.
ReplyDeleteFun background fabrics! Have a great time at quilt camp!
ReplyDeleteLove your background neutrals! You are really ambitious to make this quilt, but it will be gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThat quilt is gorgeous! I can’t wait to follow your progress....and it looks like you are off to a great start.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great block design. I really like the colors AND especially the conversation prints! Such fun. :)
ReplyDeleteI have switched machines on many projects and haven't had a problem--just take a block finished on one machine and place the seam allowance under the needle of the second machine to see how they line up, and compensate accordingly.
Beautiful blocks Karen, they really are a delight! Looking forward to seeing the applique blocks too! Christine xx
ReplyDeleteThe horse print is one of my favorite from the line. And you have already put it to good use! I am waiting for the delivery of more of the Max and Louise fabrics. Probably come tomorrow. Did you order more at those great prices?
ReplyDeleteI love your applique background prints - and what a fun block - I've never seen that block before. Happy New Year!
