It's a Garden Party Row Along Show N Tell Day!
It was my desire from the start to try to use as many of the designer's blocks/rows as I could. Sadly, I couldn't do them all because there were SEW MANY! That is great though because there is much to choose from. Marian organized us by sizes that would fit easily together too! I absolutely loved working on this project! My quilt, which features 20 designers patterns, turned out better than I ever could have imagined.
I wish I could say that I have a completely finished quilt to show today or even a completed top. It is very close but not quite there. I still have applique' to stitch down and rows to sew together, but I think you can pretty much see my end goal. The empty Monkey Wrench block will also have some applique' inside it. I will post a fresh photo here once the finished top is completely ready.
Here are links to the fabulous designers and their patterns:
Garden Visitors by Blue Heron Quilting
Flower by Stitchin at Home
Get the Garden ready by Elizabeth Coughlin Designs
Birdhouse by Moosestash Quilting
Free as a Bird by Quilter Chick
The section below includes patterns: Bird Bath by Clever Chameleon, Bird at the bath by Songbird Designs, Plant by Charisma Horton, Home Tweet Home lanterns by Helene Pinkster, and The Freddies by Seams to Be Sew.
I took three designs and put them together for this row:
Brick Wall by Bobbin In Quilts with Wheelbarrow by Just Let Me Quilt and crow/pumpkins by Miss Laureen's Schoolhouse. The large flower and lady bug were created by Bumbleberry Stitches.
Poppy Dance by Kissed Quilts on the Rock Wall at For the Love of Geese
