Quiltathon - Sunday
This is #11 block. One more and I'm going to start cutting the finishing kit. THAT will be busting! LOL. But I'm not talking about the stash report this week! (sigh)
~~~~~~~~~
1:00 p.m. - All 12 blocks are finished! Hooray! Used my favorite fabric and learned how to use the templates, so it was a good thing! I'm going in there right now to start cutting the finishing kit. There were 12 kits to choose from and I chose this one. It's a different setting from any I've done before, and there's a bit of applique on it. Because I'm needleturning the applique instead of fusing it, it'll take me a couple of weeks to finish this top, but I'm going to work on it every night for at least an hour!
Gosh, I can't remember when I've been so excited about a quilt -- well, since putting the final stitch in the binding of the Giterdun!

Thanks, Vickie for the great blog. I've been reading it for quite a while now and you are so fun! I've even mentioned you on my own blog today in the randmness note. Have a great weekend stashbusting!
That's such a pretty quilt! You're doing so good with getting all those blocks done too! I'm surprised you've had any time for sewing . . with all that stash enhancing you've been doing! :)
Another beautifull block. We won't be discussing your stash report.
YOU ROCK! ILY it and ILY you!

It's gonna be beautiful Vicky!!
Double Awesome! This is a simple block but my favorite. Can't wait to see the finished product. Have you tried the freezer paper method of applique. So much easier than "ugh" needle turn.
I most definitely agree with Miss Jean on the applique. Your blocks are looking great! The quilt will be a beauty!
Stunning,Vicky. I can feel your excitement. WooHoo!
Wow, your blocks look FABULOUS! Congratulations and I can't wait to see them all put together. I love that finishing kit!
Such pretty blocks - I can't wait to see how you finish it, and the applique. Applique is always a nice finishing touch.
Wow, your Patchwork Party blocks are awesome! You got those done fast. I love those fabrics!
Just gorgeous, and such a fun setting you chose. Can't wait to see it put together.
Wow! I'm so impressed by how fast you got these blocks done! I'm just starting mine tonight as they take about two weeks to get here in the post. Having seen you great they look I'm really inspired to press on with them.
Thanks for sharing.
The quilt is gorgeous.
The blocks all look beautiful, and I love the setting kit!! I can't wait to see it finished.
All of your blocks are gorgeous, Vicky, and I think the finishing kit you chose is one of the prettiest offered! You go girl! I have enjoyed reading your comments about each block, too. I have never used those templates - for some reason, they don't look easy to use to me. I'm being silly, I know.
