"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:

Excellent, djane. They are helpful with these small blocks. The company can make most any shape a person wants and are quick to respond.

I just got my set of templates in the mail. I stil had a couple of shoo fly blocks to make and WOW it was so much easier to trim with these. I am ready to start on the double 9 patches now. The company was quick in getting my order to me here in Canada even though mail is slowed.

I ordered the templates and they arrived. I am at present arranging the border appliques on my Hugs and Kisses so will be able to get back to Afternoon Delight tomorrow. Learning more every day. Who says you can't teach an old gal some new tricks. :woohoo: Hope to get 2020 done as I approach 80. Last year quit teaching Art Quilting classes so now working just on my own projects. Have so many TQS BOMs lined up.

My set arrived yesterday.. Thanks for posting the info - I'd never have thought to search online for such odd sizes.

I particularly like the 7.25" ruler - it makes trimming the applique blocks a real breeze. I'm going to use it to check my layout before appliqueing too - with horizontal, vertical, and diagonal markings, it makes it easy to check placement. The 2.75" rulers have nice markings that help true up the 9-patch blocks - but you have to be extra careful when cutting. Because of the size, your fingers are closer to the blade than I like.

Oh WOW! I let TCR Engraving know this morning they "may" get orders for the wonderful templates my friend had made.

They have and they are now on their website for direct ordering:

I am using the Double 9 patch one and it works great to be sure they are perfect.

This company can make any templates you want so if you would like something else, let them know.
