FNwF - A4A QAL - Show and tell

Friday Night with Friends - I look forward this night every time ;-)

I managed to get some sewing done, and I must say I am really enjoying this QAL :)


Lesson #10


My Virtual Quilt Wall


My real design wall - I need to rotate two blocks, and will get them the right way by the time I finish Lessen #11 - which is already out.  I need to plan some time to sew - both my swap blocks and this QAL.

Thank you for visiting my blog today - I hope you have a good day.

Bitten by the QAL Bug ;-)

One of my first quilting experiences started with a Quilt Along in 2010 - the Jelly Roll Sampler Quilt Along - it was just perfect for a beginner ;-)

Then, in 2012, I did the HST BOM - you can see photos of the completed items in my Flickr album (I am not sure what has happened to the photos on this blog for the JRSQA - the posts are still here, but the photos seem to have disappeared :( )

Now that I have been well and truly bitten by the QAL bug, I was on the look out for another QAL and discovered the A4A QAL - Aiming for Accuracy Quilt Along run by Quilters Gallery - see link on sidebar to get further information.

It took me a little while to pick out my fabrics - but now that I have, it is full steam ahead.

My Selection

starting with a 6 FQ pack from Spotlight, and adding some Kaufman Night & Day and other black/yellow/white/grey fabrics from my stash


block #1 - think I might redo this one with better contrast


Block #2 - I love how this one turned out


Block #3 - this one was a little more tricky and involved a bit of 'reverse' sewing ;-)
