How big are the blocks and how many do you have to do. They are really pretty

there are 26 blocks. from the book they are 7", but some have enlarged them so that the blocks are bigger.

My blocks are 7" square & there will be a total of 36. These 16 form the center unit. They will have a very narrow inner border around them. Then there are 20 more that surround them with another border then a bigger appliques border. The quilt finishes at about 60" square.

We are doing this as a cyber sew. I am hosting it, so I have done the center blocks.

The official start date is June 5, but a few of us have JTG (Jumped the Gun). Anyone is welcome to join us. My signature has the link.

Thanks for looking & for all the compliments.

That's only because I made 8 blocks at this sitting. I tend to work in an assembly-line fashion. Do the same thing for all the blocks at one time. Like I have all the fusible drawn & cut out for all 36 blocks. I did fabric selection for all 16 center blocks at the same time.

Now I am drawing the design on the outer 20 blocks. I had put that off until I got my light box.

The next thing I'm doing is sewing the 16 blocks together into the center unit & then I have to decide what I'm going to do about that little inner border. Haven't given it any thought as I wanted to see what the blocks would look lke before making any deciesions.

I like the way you do your applique first Lesley before attaching to the background
