"Afternoon Delight" was one of Sue Garman's favorite patterns. This wonderfully scrappy quilt is truly a delight to make with its combination of simple appliqué and Double Nine-Patch blocks and modified Shoo Fly blocks. Each month you will work on pieced and appliquéd blocks, and in the final month, you will assemble the blocks and add the outer border. The finished quilt measures approximately 86 1/2" inches square.

Let's use this Topic "Afernoon Delight Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful 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:

Heather7, I saw your (life is too short comment about the double nine patch. Loved Barbara"s comment on the normal
nine patch, and that started me thinking is there an easier way to get a double nine patch. So this morning I tried to make
and appliqued double nine patch. Picture of the regular pieced and the applique below.For
P1010303.jpg

the applique I just cut a finished size since
it was an experiment. I cut one background piece 6.75 inches square. I drew the grid with frixion pen. I put print and fuse on the
back of a couple colored strips. Cut the strips to .75 inch and then sub cut to .75 squares. Put them in place on the grid and fused down.
Stitched the 8 patch lines so it would look like pieced. Started to stitch with dark mono filament on the batiks squares. It would probably
work and was way faster than all the cutting of the back ground and the worry about which way to press the seam allowances. I might
try this on another project. You got my mine thinking. Thank you. HelenW

Heather, the blocks are still 6.75” finished, 7.25” unfinished. Each square is cut 2.75”.

quilthermine, you have figured out how to post on the Forum and insert a photo--that' great! Just look around to see all that is here. Every time I come to the Forum, I check "Recent Topics"--that way I see what has been posted most recently in all the Topics and can check those that interest me.

Welcome, your blocks are lovely and you are sure to catch up. Good thing it's not a race.

Quiltermine,
Welcome to TQS!
Your blocks are beautiful. What kind of applique are you doing?
I also admired the quilts in your profile picture. They are stunning. Beautiful design and beautiful quilting.
How do you like your HQ? I am pondering getting a long arm.. but don't know which one.

Heather, a few of the Sunday Sew and Sews are making plain 9 Patches--not double. That will work and still give the diagonal line look.
