TOPIC: Long Time Gone Sew Along

That's a tough decision. I think both would be delightful and very different from the original. Can't wait to see what you decide.

I really enjoyed your class. That fact that you actually do press not iron impressed me. There are so many ways to pin and I like your way, I had never seen that method before. I am looking forward to your tips as we travel through the pattern. Thank you. Now to decide if I want to use Civil War reproductions or 30's.

We will be talking about the sashing and binding. With sashing on a quilt like this I generally wait until I have a portion of it pieced and then make that decision. I believe 1 1/3 yards will be enough for that.

Thanks for reaching out.

I purchased the traditional bundle and was hoping to hear suggestions for the solid sashing and binding color. Is 1 1/3 yards enough?

I'm anticipating 2-3 months. There are 13 different blocks of which I will double up on some and then the finishing.

My book is in transit. I'm looking forward to this project and will use late 19th century reproduction fabrics. I'm curious how long the sew-along will last.

Dee, I am enjoying your Saturday Sampler sessions and am looking forward to this quilt along. I have had the pattern for awhile, and will use combo of stash and the contemporary bundle. I also like seeing how others use fabric and color. Do you have an anticipated timeline to complete? Just curious. Thanks!

I made this quilt a few years ago. I added squares all around to make it bigger. Made from stash.

Well done! It is beautiful and the darker fabrics are really nice and it's good to know any palette one chooses is going to be great.

Barbara, Thank you for sharing and inspiring! Which is your favorite?

The first one which I made second. I increased the borders and added lots more piecing to them. I really like those borders.
