"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:
Lynda, they are the same size as the Shoo Fly squares: .75” finished.
Yes, the pattern will list sizes for strip piecing but you can start making 9 patches now from leftover squares. Nine patch blocks will be 2.25” finished.
I'm a little late to the game here but will make an effort to catch up. I am definitely using scraps from my stash and have many tiny pieces left over. I am wondering the size of the nine patches that we will be doing at the end. Imagine they will be strip pieced but I have lots of little squares I could use. Sorry if this has been answered already; I've tried to catch up with the posts but there are many!
