I've finished the three blocks! They're far from perfect but I'm pretty proud of them. On to the bonus block now! Thanks so much for this QAL, I'm really enjoying it and learning so much

Alli said...

I've finished my three blocks (my flickr name is sayonion). Thanks for the giveaway and the fun quiltalong! :)

Alli said...

I also made the bonus block. Now I have blocks that are 12", 12.25", 12.5", and 12.75" for the first month. Good golly.

mammafairy said...

I have made my three blocks, and loved doing them! I can't believe how much fun it is to do a quilt along, with everyone else doing the same. and how different they all are!

Gina E. said...

I've done my three, and looking forward to the others, as I have learnt more from your tutorials than any person or any book! I don't know if I'm up to 'designing' a block. I'm an Aries and not creative, but can follow instructions to the letter!
Those solid colour fabrics are gorgeous! So useful..I was looking at my stash today and thinking that I should buy some plain fabrics to match a few of the fancy patterned fabrics that I have.

Siobhan said...

Hi Leila, I was lagging behind a bit due to fabric dilemmas but I have stopped stropping and I have just finished the first 3 blocks.I am nearly finished the 4th block and I will upload it tomorrow. Thanks for all your easy to follow instructions, I am learning so many new techniques. I am really enjoying this now.
By the way Thanks for the generous giveaway ... great fabric.
Four fat quarters of Kona fabric is just what I need to spruce my blocks up.

mammafairy said...

Hi
I have finished my challenge block. I have been admiring everyone elses as well on the flickr. so many variations from one original instruction!
Wow.

Lindsay said...

i've done my three. i'm excited for more! i'm hoping to try out the design challenge over the weekend. thanks for the math stuff. that'll help!

Sharon said...

My three are finished and I'll have fun with the design challenge over the next couple of days.

Brenda said...

After a lot of ripping of seams, I got my bonus block done. Should have conjured up a simpler design, but I learned a lot during the construction. So, I guess that was a bonus, too! I will have it up on Flickr with the other three. :)

Emily said...

All three blocks done!! I had a lot of fun going through my scraps and coming up with bright and fun colors.

Nessa said...

I have made the first 3...and if i get spare second will get onto the challenge block. Thanks for your info, feedback and support!

Nessa said...

I have made and uploaded my challenge block. Mine was a bit of a 'double' challenge as the maths tutorial allowed me to bring my HST booboo from last week up to size. Thanks again.

Cassie said...

3 blocks done! We'll see if I get around to the challenge block or not....

Leanne said...

I finally have my first three blocks done.

TheStylishHome said...

I've finished all 3! Thank you so much for this challenge. I'm self taught, so this has been extremely helpful for me to see where I was going wrong. HA! I'm surprised anything ever came out square!

Anonymous said...

ALL FINISHED WITH THREE - but, as a beginner, I really didn't have an eye for the colors (using scraps and pieces) and my 9-patch don't look like little crosses and the churn dash turned out also confused. So right now I'm re-cutting the churn dash and tomorrow will re-cut the 9-patch and hopefully I'll figure this out. I think I need an additional tutorial that when the directions say "light" or "dark", they indicate whether the lights should be the same or different fabric and the same for the darks..for churn dash, for example, for the corners of the original I used two different lights, which meant that I only had two matching corners...and then I used a different light for the center....see what I mean? HELP!

I finished all three blocks AGAIN (the second three) and the Bonus block! I changed colors, used white background fabric, and tried for more color consistency so the blocks look more consistent.

Em said...

I finished all three blocks. I tried to post before, so here I am at the 11th hour, posting on a different computer. I managed to have the momentum to finish the third block on my mom's machine since we are visiting my parents' right now.

Cassie said...

I've just finished my churn dash, so have now completed all three( 9pm Australian time?!). I was hoping to do the bonus block in time but I'm pleading sickness, cold and teething bub with her first birthday approaching! I'm loving this so much, so thanks Leila for all your work.
