"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:

I have finished the applique blocks for this month. All hand applique. Block 11 was a bit of a challenge, not perfect but when it’s in the quilt, the imperfection won’t be noticeable.

I finished my March applique blocks over the weekend. I'm loving the double blanket stitch I'm using and enjoying the challenges some of these designs are giving me.

re: the brown color scheme. My daughter asked for a two color quilt, brown and white, a couple years ago. I struggled, because my choices are usually more colorful. But I found a number of fabrics (including batiks) that read as brown, but were, in fact, combinations of other colors. She loves it - it looks rich and brown. But I had more fun, since it wasn't really all brown.

Patchworkjill your colours and blocks are beautiful, I'm looking forward to see the end result I'm sure that it will be stunning. I made a quilt in a similar colour palette using a Moda fabric 'Little Black Dress', it was really lovely when I finished it.

Jill, I love your choice of the browns; your blocks are beautiful. If you feel it needs more color why not add some gold tones.
