"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:

Thank you, Barbara. In this post, I will have tried to upload the two October block photos with file names IMG_4658.jpeg and IMG_4659.jpeg. The files are 2.3 MB and 4.1 MB in size, and the file names do not have any singe/double quotes. We'll keep our fingers crossed :)

If the photos do not appear, I'll leave this message up in case the information about the files will be of any use.

EDIT: It worked! :)

October blocks are done. You'll have to trust me on this one.... A problem arose with posting photos. After trying several times via computer and mobile phone, as well as resizing the photos down to the smallest size and taking new photos, I surrender :)

It has been very enjoyable to see everyone's recent progress as we move closer to the end!

Chrys, try again. Maximum size has been increased to 5 mg so that should be large enough for most people's photos.

I love your fabric choices! I too have been using up my stash, but using civil war reproductions. It has been fun shopping from my own home instead of running around looking for the perfect fabric when I really had it all along in my "fabric archive". Love this journey!

Second Test, using iPad. I sized it Small and it posted fine. Then I posted it Actual size and it worked too.

I hope to know the maximum size for upload in the next day or two.

test

I was able to post this photo but not others that are too large. I have just asked the maximum size we can upload so we can avoid the frustration. As soon as I get the info I will post it here.

Chrys, I'm glad that I am not the only one who is unable to post photos. Extremely frustrating. I hope it gets fixed soon! :)

Barbara, would you put a link to your way of squaring up all the appliqué blocks. I have not trimmed one of mine yet and the time is coming. Thank you!

Ginny, at the end of this long blog post you will find my solution for carefully squaring up the applique blocks:
