Well I am not surprised that you were pooped in that heat.

No havenīt touched anything today as well. Have been working something out in paper and material and that all takes time.

I have been printing out my blocks for several months in advance, its even hot doing that. However for what it is worth there is a mistake in the schedule. I thought I had done H2 and sure enough I went back over the schedule and it appears twice.

First time in Week 1st March and second time in Week 25th October.

I have got hold of a schedule that was updated or something which cleared any mistakes up?????

Lesley can you clarify for me or anyone

That's why I like the freezer paper method, I don't sew through the paper, so it's easy peasy to pull off with no stretched stitches! :) :) :)

Well, I don't think I duplicated any Elle, so I must have spotted it at some point.... I just looked on my schedule, and it's H12 on 25th October, not H2. Does that help?

I have been sewing all day because we have had lots of thunderstorms rolling around, so no computer. I finished quilting in the ditch around all my blocks, and I've now started going round the tris. Yeah!

Just realized I was not getting updates on this thread. I am still here, and plugging along.

I have been hand sewing (QAYG) some of the blocks following Leslie's example. I will add the backing after I put them together ala Leslie!

I store my block in gallon size zip-loc bags, by week. 4 blocks fit without the batting, and then another 4 behind facing out. (Does that make sense) Triangles are 2 and 2, kind of by week. That way my cats won't mess them up and I can carry them out without fear of mishaps.

But I have lots of catching up to do! (Running real fast, just to keep in place!)

Well I thought I would try to do a whole row at a time, but I can see that I will be waiting ages before I can do even one row. SOOOOO I have cut mine into blocks and will do it same as Lesley, that way I can stay productive and with a bit of hope have all the blocks quilted by the time we are ready to put it together. Still have more papers to come off, but at least I am getting there.

I think you are very wise doing it on light weight paper, but how can you ot stitch through the paper Rachel? Inquiring minds want to know?

Elle, I am pretty sure that Klue originally put out a schedule, then she had to redo it due to exactly what you are talking about..she had a typo/duplicate. Sounds like the typo was that the Oct. block should have been H12. Anyway...she posted 2 different schedules..1 wrong...1 corrrected. I'll go check mine to see which I printed...mine could be wrong too!

Rachael, I tried the freezer paper method and it didn't do as well for me...I'm sure I just need practice. So..I have to pull the yucky papers. (still none done tonight either...I am falling waaayyyy behind!)

Sharon...keep running...we're here!!

I am sure Lesley is correct it should read H12, will go change it and print it out.

You need a good pair of tweezers Patti, and a tray or something on your lap. Sit in front of that nice new TV and tease those little ....ahem... so and so's out.

BTW, I feel really flattered that some of you are contemplating doing your quilt the way I have done mine. I hope you get on with it well.

I use this method:

Takes some getting used to if you do the regular method, but I find it so much easier to do.

Cheers!
