Topic: SHOW AND TELL--Your Blocks (53/54) - The Quilt Show Forum

Welcome, Guest

"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:

Hellen, I am paying for mine as only started end of 2019 but you can pay by the month for US$9.95 and do it as a BOM this is how I am doing it and makes it more affordable as a monthly BOM also in Australian $$ it would cost me $140.00 upfront. It works out to my monthly is A$14.82.

Yes, I do raw edge, using double-sided fusible then a double blanket stitch, the stitch size depends on the size of the piece or if I want the blanket stitch to stand out, often use a variegated thread to lessen the number of thread changes. If you are interested in the Ester Alieu quilt I am happy to private send photos of the two months I have done so far to give you an idea.

Hope this may be of help, Jill

Jilly, Thank you for posting pictures of your other BOMs you will be doing. Just love the Ester Aliu Love Entwined 1790 Marriage Coverlet.
Bright colors will be beautiful. So cheerful. I went to her website and when I saw the price of $95 for the pattern, I thought YIKES!!! But after
reading her story, and the fact she provided it for free as a BOM, I think it was back in 2012, I can see why it costs so much. Hope you got it for free.
I was surprised she does free BOMs. Great find. Do you do raw edge with your buttonhole stitch edges? Thank you. HelenW

To answer the question below the other BOM's are as listed below, now retired so have the time lol lol.

Esther Aliu, I am doing mine in bright colours with white background and not the traditional as shown in the photo.
Sarah Fielke, I love this one as the background is the main feature, but if you don't read the information sheet you can miss this, my colour is teal and cream.
Sugaridoo by Irene with Bernina, this quilt is by rows and is a mystery one so I can't show it finished, but have put up a photo of the quilt overall with "Month One" showing, each row has an accent colour mine is Navy.
