Borderline Quilter Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Those are great instructions and comments Shannon, wish that I could join in but found it cost prohibitive the last time although am pleased to say that my 'Friends Across the Ocean' quilt is now residing in Edinburgh.....

Hitomi Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 So I got some blocks that I misplaced the corners. I mean they are all not the same placement of fabric in each block. That's OK isn't it? I figure it was going to different people. I'm done, I just gotta label the blocks and send it OFF to Shannon. I read all the instructions, stamps, NOT prepaid postage. And a SASE with return postage. I'm excited to see what I get and from where they come from. Shannon did a great job in organizing and the directions was very thorough. I usually can't understand the directions and follow the pictures, but I understood, LOL! I squared them all to 12 1/2 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitomi Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Here's my block. Hope the prints are OK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quilted charm Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Hitomi, they look great to me! Wish I was that far along:) I'll get them done this week though I think. Working 7 days on, 7 days off, means I go 7 days with getting very little sewing done. Then the first day off, I just kinda sit and stare at the wall:P:P Maybe this will jump start me.

Bonnie H Posted February 1, 2012 Report Share Posted February 1, 2012 Originally posted by Hitomi I squared them all to 12 1/2 inches. Hitomi, do you mean you squared them to 13 inches? I hope I didn't miss a new posting about the instructions and maybe you meant 13 inches, as that's what mine are coming up at! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
