"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:
Feel free to rotate it. I am sure Sue would have if she had planned her quilt on point from the beginning. I am a "symmetrical" kind of gal so seeing blocks "crooked" bothers me, too.
So I have a question about the applique heart. My sense of order tingles when I see this block with the heart rotated due to the on pointe orientation. I remember reading on Sue's blog that she decided to do the blocks on pointe after she'd already made them, so I have a hunch that's why this one is looks to be on its side.
What are your thoughts about being true to Sue's design vs. rotating the heart to the more usual heart look?

Cool. That’s what I’m going with.
