    Judith - i just love how scrappy and fun your quilt is without being too busy. The additional details in each block just makes it so much fun and I feel like I find something new each time I look at it.

    I went ahead and made up my last three blocks, because I don't know how much sewing time I'll have in the next few weeks. I don't want this to become another incomplete top. I almost (almost!) feel bad posting it here, as it's not really Eleanor Burn's BOM anymore. It's certainly inspired by her quilt along. And I've already started my sashing strips and corner stones just like hers, but I really ended up making what makes me happy.

    I'll be sewing the blocks in a 3 across, 4 down design. But for the photo I don't have them like that because my design wall is actually at the head of our master bed and the headboard is in the way, Lol!

    Both of my girls love it, so I think I'll be making a second here sooner rather than later!

    I think it is very cute. If you were inspired by her then I feel that is fine to be on here too. I always say the more the merrier. I also love pictures. lol. There is a lot of us that changed several of her blocks. Thanks for the pictures everyone.

    NZquilter... I ended up making my own last block too... a watering can. I need to have this quilt finished by the end of July so I didn't want to wait for the last block to come out.

    I didn't make the fruit stand, and the pumpkin block will be used for another project. My 12-block quilt will only be using five of Eleanor's blocks. I substituted blocks that I liked better for the others. I'll post a picture when I get it finished.

    Thank you Irish Mom. I love the idea that you find something new with each look. Hopefully my granddaughter will also
