"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:

Yes thank you. What glue do you use? I find some glue gets really hard and is very difficult to hand sew through. Your appliqué stitches are invisible. Beautiful

TammyW, are you asking me? I use Appliquick tools and glue to turn under the edges, plus the Quilter's Select 80 wt. thread to appliqué the pieces down by hand. The thread disappears like magic. :cheer:

I am so very impressed with the blocks that every one has posted. I found that month 2 appliqué were tricky for me. Getting everything centered was not so easy...even with a pattern and marked to follow. I have attached all my blocks so far. Whew, and in one week we will have a whole new set! The process is so enjoyable.

Since month one, I changed my plans a little. This meant redoing the first two Shoo Fly blocks; and deciding to finish them all.

The set of blocks for February has been completed. It feels like Sue Garman has a teaching moment for each of the applique blocks :)

Finished my February blocks yesterday. I've never appliqued like this before, but am loving it.
