Can't wait to see that Tracy! It is beautiful....... can you give us a sneak peek of colors your going to use? Or are you going to go with the same that's in the pattern?

I have no idea right now. I will PROBABLY make the background (light) all one colour then go with whatever scraps are in front of my face and the right size. Very Happy

I think I'd better go look to see if the yardage is listed, just in case Marilee and I happen to stop in at a quilt shop on the way home tomorrow.

It is an awesome quilt and wellworth making can't wait to see your version!

Subject: Re: I Think I Must Tue May 13, 2014 9:35 pm

Looks like a fine quilt.

Subject: Re: I Think I Must Wed May 14, 2014 7:35 am

Looking forward to pics! Will be lovely!

Subject: Re: I Think I Must Thu May 22, 2014 9:31 am

It arrived! It arrived!

Actually, it arrived on Tuesday but I had to work on Wednesday and I was busy doing THIS Tuesday afternoon

Yep, I already started! It's made differently (and more easily) than I'd expected, so I can do this in bite-sized chunks.

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Anita for being willing to share the magazine with me and being so quick about it.

Ummmm.... I need to empty one. When I unpacked from retreat I immediately filled all the boxes with different projects. doh

BUT one just has the stuff to make a potholder for Die Cutter's Guild. If I can tear myself away from the land of HSTs I can probably get that together and on to the DONE pile.

I am so glad it arrived and you really wanted it! It was just taking up space here. I would never make that pattern! Have fun, Tracy! anitas

me too.

Subject: Re: I Think I Must Thu May 29, 2014 8:59 am

Tracy, LOVE the pattern!! Please keep us updated! I would love to do that one as well!

Subject: Re: I Think I Must Thu May 29, 2014 10:07 am

Update: I thought I had a "better" way of doing those little HSTs so I switched horses. Got 2/3 of a block done, it was nothing but trouble. I have the other 1/3 to un-sew (then sew back together, of course), so this week so far that's all I have to show for this project.

I've been working more hours than usual (yay for the $, boo for the time), but I have the weekend off and hope to make some more progress.

Hmmm...

Just wanted to show everyone the fabric I picked to make Capella, the pattern FB sent me in thanks! Kinda curious how it will turn out. I shopped my stash for the 3 1 yard pieces and got the green for the background. I am so excited! Thanks again, Tracy!
