Here are all my blocks

I tried figuring out the mosaic programs....couldn't.

I tried putting my picture on a Word document.....couldn't get it over to the blog.

So here are all my blocks on the floor after moving furniture and standing on a step stool.


Tried not to get too many heavy reds together, no like backgrounds together, not too many vases together, not too many wreaths together.  Argh!  Lots of work.  Anyways the picture above is the best picture of the blocks as a whole.  The next picture is my final positioning of the blocks.


Picture is not as good as the first one, but now my blocks are numbered and ready to go.  I am going to sit and look over the instructions (haven't looked at them since I started this whole thing) and see if I need to trim down the blocks and once I do what needs to be done, I am going to stitch them together and then get busy on cutting out the "let down" (can't believe I am even thinking that way), but wow...it's been a long time.  It certainly seems like it went fast NOW.

  1. Interesting how much it added to the quilt to move the berry block to the side of the bottom berry block... any way you look at it ---- you have a lovely quilt.

  2. I think it's wonderful! A testament to the 'block a month' method.

  4. Incredible quilt Mimi, for one thing I love quilts with background fabric interest. I think it really makes a quilt sparkle with the silent variety in the back and I try to do this with alot of my quilts.
    Your really picked gorgeous fabric for your applique, I can`t wait to see what you decide for your boarders. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous quilt

  6. I LOVE it!! Wasn't that hard to move them all around- mine will never be "just" right. I don't think this quilt was meant to be perfect anyway. Congratulations on getting that far!! Woo-Hoo!!

  7. Congratulations! Another one of us had the blocks completed!!! As a group, we're moving right along. Your top looks really good. I had to photograph mine the same way - fun, yes?
