    Love your quilt, working my way through the book too. I met Michelle Hill at the Sydney Craft and Quilt Fair last Saturday, she was working on a quilt from her second book and there were several others she had made on display as well. She does not use stabilizer when she appliques with a blanket stitch and her work was stunning.

    I love your choice of fabrics, I've made a number of the blocks into cushions using Michelle's fabric range but love your choice especially the background fabric- just may have to tackle the poppies next. Can't wait to see the finished article.

    Cheers from Oz

    Eddie, I'm making my first quilt but after this one is finished I was thinking about making an applique quilt. I'm taking a class starting July 7th. Where did you find the pattern for this quilt? It's lovely and your colors are great. I love it! I'm new to quilting and don't know diddly about anything, YET!. But, I'm an adventurous kinda gal and I'll try anything. LOL. I'm currently making a hand stitched paper piece hexagon quilt and my first few blocks are a little shadey looking. I was going to take them apart and redo them but since the quilt will only go to family one day, I hope, I thought why not just add those little problems to my journal as to what NOT to do the next time and keep going. It will be interesting chat one day when I'm older and grayer, lol....and hopefully, have some grandchildren to share my tales with. Thanks for sharing.......Babs

    Beautiful work! I guess I haven't looked at that book close enough. I put it aside to get fabric and finnish other projects.

    Your work is inspiring.
    Thanks for sharing,

    It will be breathtaking when finished. But all that applique around all those curves and tiny spaces would drive me N-U-T-Z!! More power to you. :thumbup:
