Join us on a TQS exclusive 12-month journey into the land of childhood memory with a charming quilt designed especially for TQS by internationally-known Australian designer Lynette Anderson. Lynette combines simple, unpretentious folk art style appliqué motifs with patchwork blocks for a quilt that will be lots of fun to make. Each month we will provide photos, detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, and full-size patterns. We will once again be offering monthly companion teaching videos as well. It all makes for a year of fun and learning!
Here are my May blocks. I used a fox from another designer (with nice chunky legs). I am doing 2/3rds size so my blocks are 6 inch squares which will make the piecing easier than half size.
Now I am off to the Quilts UK show at Malvern "I don't need more fabric" but I might see the perfect backing.

Hello Judieo, your fall sounds terrible hope you heal quick but I know it takes weeks. You need to keep your fingers moving so perhaps you'll manage gluing.
Have you completed any of the months? It would be nice to see them

Well I finally found time to work on this project and fell down my basement stairs shattering the ball in R shoulder and then breaking my left thumb. I have terrible luck. Tried to appliqué the trees and some prepared work but couldn't hold the fabric with L thumb. So I'm hoping I could perhaps make the hexagons. What size are te paper inserts I figure I could manage gluing in place.
Also s this where we comment and how do you see the replies to follow the question. I'm just not getting it. Love all the comments I've been able to read. You're all so awesome.

Finished April border.
I was wondering if it would be a good idea to 'quilt as you go' the center piece - not that I have the time to do it right now. Jeanette
