Join us on a TQS exclusive 12-month creative journey with Becky Goldsmith as we bring you "Sizzle," a stunning quilt designed especially for TQS.
Each month we will provide photos, detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, and full-size patterns. Becky has also created a selection of "how-to" videos to guide you along the way.
Let's use this Topic "Sizzle Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful Sizzle Blocks. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.
The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.
AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:
I’ve finished piecing my borders and am trying to decide whether to add the second border like Barbara did. You can see it laid in on one of the corners. I will bind it In the navy blue. If any of you are thinking of doing this, I had plenty of the red/orange and the navy fabrics. The green was a bit close because of how large you need to cut the squares for the sew and trim method for the half square triangles. It is doable if you are careful. And, I must admit I made a few trimming errors and still had enough with do-overs. I plan on quilting this myself on my stationary machine so am thinking of what to use for quilting designs.

I got bored after 5 blocks so decided to find a layout for a quilt with 5 huge blocks. Here it is on my design wall. I’ll post another picture when it is all sewn together.
