To Do Tuesday and more Garden Party Reveals

 A couple more rows in the Garden Party Row Along were revealed this week that I have made.  Thank you to:

Teresa Weaver at yoursewingfriend.com for this lovely pattern!  I love all the intricate details from the turtle in the pond to the birds in the sky and flowers on the horizon!  Mine is only fused.  I hope to sit and blanket stitch all of my blocks soon.  I use my Bernina for that and don't want to drag it out until I am ready for it.

I love the colors used by Teresa better, but I wanted some variety in the background color in my quilt.



Also, thank you Heleen Pinkster for your darling lantern design.  I enjoyed paper piecing it, and it looks so nice with my other rows.

My favorite fabric is the part inside the lanterns.  I feel like it looks like a screen on a lantern.  It just happened to be in my stash.


I am busily sewing up more rows to prepare for the reveal the middle of October.  I am loving this quilt!


To Do Tuesday Progress:

1.  Complete a flower block for my Garden Party Quilt ✔

2. Do some machine quilting on Trail Mix

3. Finish a paper pieced Row ✔

    The Garden Party rows are just cuter every time you post them! I really can't wait to see your whole project complete. I guess it's true, the elves don't come in the night and do our piecing and quilting for us, do they? We have to keep plugging along ourselves!

    Hello! Oh gosh, I love your two rows. I adore the birds on the wire and the lantern row - how fun is that. And the turtle in the pond is also a fun row. Those little mushrooms! Thanks for linking up. ~smile~ Roseanne

    The rows are looking great. That looks like a lot of work in the FPP row. I find machine appliqué very relaxing. It’s worth while having a few blocks ready to go at once to reduce the number of cotton colour changes.
