Wow, thats quite the fair Lesley! Yes, its pretty rinky dinky around here. Truthfully, I would rather just display it in a quilt display show than leave it at the fairgrounds. At the last "display" I went to, at least there were Ladies there all the time who kept people from handling the quilts and to keep an eye on them. At the fairgrounds, there is no one around the quilts...they just lay there out in the open. Maybe I'm a bit too protective of mine :roll:

Congraulations Lesley and good luck on the next fair. You are winning prizes for your DJ and I am just making plans to start on mine. Joann's ran out of the Kona cotton. I finally got 8 yds of Kona cotton in buttercup yellow from fabric.com for $4.69 per yd. I thought that was a pretty good price. I already had 7 yds from Joann's. Now I just have to find time for DJ and still work on AOTH.

You can certainly eliminate whatever blocks you want to...its YOUR quilt! You might want to just wait a bit to do them though until you are more in the "groove" of doing them..they won't be so hard further on down the road.

I just drew out a grid for the numbers of blocks, then coloured them in with pencils to roughly match the fabrics I had. Then I assigned a fabric to each colour on the grid - cut a scrap out and stapled it beside the grid to keep me on track.
Even so I made a couple of blocks in the 'wrong' fabric, so I moved them, rather than remaking them.
