Great job, Candi. Your painted blocks are beautiful. You are a very talented lady. I'm doing good to applique.

tee hee hee...want some cheese? I'm always carrying :XD:

Thanks ladies for all the kind comments.

Elle, I used Shiva paintsticks..it is a lot if fun.

And Lesley, yes, as I was painting one, I was wondering how the AOTH would look painted....but I love to applique too. :P

I looked at the site...oh, be still my "so easily tempted side"...I used to be such a frugal mousling. then...sigh...i came to QB :XD:
that's my story and I'm sticking to it like cream cheese on crackers! :lol:

Candi, ALL your blocks are wonderful! Did you use freezer paper as a mask for the paintsticks? It's so nifty!

Mousie, we can have a party at the rear of AOTH and stuff ourselves with cheese and goodies before anyone else even realises what is going on. :thumbup:

Yes, I started with some Hawaiian Applique pattern, modified it a little to my taste, traced it on a freezer paper, and cut a stencil out. Lots of fun, I was able to use the stencil for all four blocks....I see LOTS of possibilties. :P

And Candi, I love the fact that they come in gold, silver and bronze metallic. Nothing like a little bling.

And not only metallic colors, but their Shiva Iridescent colors are all shiny, I think that is the box I am going to have Santa get for me :mrgreen: Yup, yup, love quilty bling. :XD:

Hi all!
For some unknown reason, do not receive updates to this thread, so he "rowed" more than 10 pages to catch up!
I apologize for how long it this and the next post.
Thank you for QAYG data, I think it will be my way to get a quilt of this and other quilts!
Khaty love your blocks! I loved # 13!
And the block 10 minutes is great! I prepared a design staff with him, but not yet finished, but I loved it!

Sandpat loved the photo of the AOTH machine quilter! She made a beautiful quilt customization!
Khaty love your borders! Bahh ... I love ALL of your quilt! Lol! I had to say! Hahaha!
I love the border more "robust" as well, because it goes with me! Maybe I should have to "copy! Hehehe!
