Topic: Half-Size Measurements (6/37) - The Quilt Show Forum

Welcome, Guest

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!

I've just spent a very lazy Sunday afternoon reviewing this thread start to finish. I didn't read every word by any means but I read a lot. What a treasure this thread would be for anyone who is thinking about starting this quilt in any way, half or whole. Congratulations to all of you to work well done. Andree, your tutorials are amazing. Wendy, your improvised design would be so encouraging to anyone who is trying to muster up the courage to travel off the beaten path.... Which reminds me of the charming tour of stiles in the English countryside. What fun! Denise, Barb, Marilyn & Rita your examples just add even more interesting flavor. I am bound to have missed someone and that's what happens when I start naming names. To all of you who have contributed I must say it's been an afternoon well spent. Thank you!

Wendy, I love your version of this. All of the changes you have made are wonderful and I particularly love the chicken-coop. Your colours are fab.

Denise, your version is so pretty and everything looks so perfect, congratulations!

Andrée, your border looks amazing, I am dying to see what it all looks like when you put it together. I ended up doing mine regular size because I couldn't bare to do all those tiny blocks. Wendy, I just did a plain piano keys border on mine. I forgot to do the penultimate sashing strip so I stitched ric-rac between the blocks and the final piano keys border.

It looks a lot longer and skinnier than it is. Glad it's done and I am sure my niece will love it when she eventually gets it! Still the quilting to do, ugh!
