"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:

Eyestitch,
Your blocks look great. And they go well with each other. I hope I can do half as well.

These 2 shoo fly blocks took way longer than I expected, but I am very pleased with them

I don't think it will matter which fabrics you pick for the Shoo Fly blocks. Any of the darks you have with any of the lights, would look great in the finished quilt. Love your applique blocks!!!

Helen, your blocks are terrific. What applique method did you use?

Nfiegirl, love your blocks, the different backgrounds are great. Any of those fabrics will work in your Shoo Fly blocks, along with anything else that looks like this fabrics.

Nfiegirl, I think the blue and the gold would look good on one with off white background, and maybe red and the

dark green for the other.
I used just two colors and off white and I like the way it turned out. HelenW

Thank you Barbara
No I didn’t see that post. I was doing all that though and they just wouldn’t post. It seems to have fixed itself now though. I’ve taken a screenshot of your post for next time :)

I am working from my stash. The applique blocks will all be batik and the rest will be mixed.

Do you have an iphone? I took my pictures with that and used my phone to log onto the website. I came to this message and wrote a short description. When i was done I clicked the "add file" and selected camera roll. Picked the one I wanted and hit submit. If you have an ipad i think it's the same process.
