    What a beautiful quilt. I love the birds and the different patterns for the blocks. You did a great job and thanks for letting us follow along. It's been a nice ride.

    What a wonderful wealth of good bird (and a cat) prints.

    I am really having second thoughts about doing this one section at a time. This is the largest quilt I have made so far. I think it is going to be full size when it's all together. I may well have more than I can handle here. Time will tell.
    On the positive side, I am finally proud of my 1/4" seams so I am posting a pic of them. Boy have they changed since I started quilting a year and a half ago. That quarter inch seam foot sure makes a world of difference.
    Also, today the cat found her place on the quilt. She looks quite queenly I think.
    Smilessss and huggggggs....

    I have a question. I do not understand how you quilt as you go and how to add the blocks or sections to the previous part. Do you leave several inches of backing and batting between each block or section?

    Since you asked, I thought others might wonder also, so I have made a tutorial about how I did it. Please click on the link to take you to the tutorial, or just go to tutorials and you will find it. Please PM me or ask on the post if you have any other questions or if there is something I didn't make clear.
    Hugs, smiles, and happy quilting
