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!

Beautiful Rita Heidi did well. I love the tendrils.

Fabulous 17 C here today, I sat by the river watching the geese and swans.

Rita, I love your little wall hanging. I am impressed with your quilting as well. Someday I hope to take the plunge into quilting some of my smaller stuff.

Very, very pretty, Rita. Love the rattail finishing, the quilting inside the flowers, and the background border color goes so well with the whole as well as with the hearts. Love it! :)

Rosemary I am making a full-size one too in Christmas fabrics, if I can stick with it till the end. :huh:
Andrée, I might just have to build another small house because I prefer it in the half-size.

It is a beautiful sunny day here and the temperature is......unbelievably......16ºC! Crazy weather!

Rita,
It is lovely, I love the colors, it feels like warm spinrg... so much needed here also in Québec...

So if you want to join us for other months, I'll guess you'll have to "build" a new house! :lol:

Rita,
It is beautiful!
And it looks like Spring! What a welcome treat on this frigid, icy morning in Virginia.

Very nice, Rita. Your sister should be very pleased. I've just reviewed the Lynnette Anderson show and it makes me want to try a bit of hand appliqué. Her designs are so charming but my personal choice would be a more lively color palette. I like the colors you've chosen. Perhaps if I lived in a hot, hot climate I would enjoy Lynnette's palette more. It was 2F when I got up this morning and I am looking forward to today's predicted high in the mid-40's. The weather pattern is changing. It's about time.

I have taken my mini-BOM as far as I wanted now. I have made it into a wall-hanging for my sister who has just moved into her new home. Thanks to those of you who helped with sizes. This is the first quilt to be quilted on my new Bernina. I will get better. :unsure:

Thank you Rita.

I don't think they will fill too much space, anyway, they are all completed. No time to start all over... :silly:

Thanks Andrée. Your hexagon flowers look lovely, I think I would do them bigger too.
