I inherited the "Quilt Block a Day" page from one of my quilting heroes, Karen Snyder of AnnaLenaLand. I enjoyed her challenge so much, I just couldn't let it go. So I asked, and Karen agreed that I would take over the "Block a Day" group.
I've kept up with my blocks so far, and my quilt top is nearly half finished! It's not necessary to sew your blocks together in rows as they're made -- I just did that so it would be easier to show them off at Front Range Modern Quilt Guild.
I spread the four rows out on a Full-sized bed, and this quilt will fit perfectly. It's so much fun to just reach into the bin of low-volume prints and sew them together as they come!

That is coming out so cool! I actually took on your block a day challenge for a few days... I will try again as soon as I get caught up. But I did get 8 machine applique blocks done in 8 days!
ReplyDeleteWow, Deb, 8 applique blocks in 8 days! That is impressive!
DeleteThat looks fantastic - well done! Gill
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gill. I'm loving the low volume background!
