Needle Turn Applique
A new Block of the month
08/Feb/09 10:55 AM
I have a couple of new Block of the months that I am
working on now that my applique blocks are finished.
The first one is called Stars for a New Day the
pattern is by Sue Garman and is available
by being a member of The Quilt Show.
The first block was a feathered star, this one was very hard to do, but I got it all done.
The next part is doing nine patches, sawtooth stars and adding floating boarders. The hardest part of this one is those floater boarders. I just don’t seem to grasp what the directions are telling me, but I am sure once I get started on them I will do just fine.
The next BOM that I am doing is actually given out every other month instead of monthly. This pattern is availble with a membership of All People Quilt. Here is the first block:
This block was very easy, but the next one is much much more involved. But once I get it finished I will post pictures.

Lots of new updates

I have been gone for a while, but I have good
reasons. 1- laziness, 2- new granddaughter was born
on the 27 of Jan, 3- laziness, 4- my mac mini was
throwing fits for a while and wouldn’t allow me
to boot the correct drive, so I couldn’t do
much of anything and finally 5- did I mention
laziness???
However I can’t really say that I have been too lazy, as I have finished up a lot of stuff. I got all my blocks for the Bouquet For A New Day quilt.
Here is October’s block:
Here is my November block:
And finally here is December’s block:
I placed all the finished blocks up on my wall, they aren’t sewn together, but they are all finished!!! Here is what they all look like together:
Thats it for now, I will share more pictures with you tomorrow.

Weeping Lillies is the September block for Bouquet
For a New Day Quilt. I finished this block up about a
week ago. I am already about half way finished with
Octobers block.
Getting that much closer to having all the blocks complete. Its going to be sad to see this one come to an end, I have really enjoyed this project. I think I found my niche, I love needle turn applique.

Another productive weekend has past. I made another
fabric basket....
I also have another Block completed for Bouquet For A New Day...
I also have made wonderful progress on my spider web quilt. I got all the blocks made. Now I just need to get them sewn together.
I am not sure if I will actually have all the blocks completed for the Bouquet For A New Day completed by the end of the year. It is after all December and I am just now starting on September’s, but I am sure trying my best to get caught up.
Well until next time, I will see what else I can complete.
