And I'm planning on doing the QAYG in rows to make the joining easier. Unfortunately I ended up in the hospital 2 nights ago and am still in here trying to learn just what caused the pain I had on Wednesday night.

The tan stands out too much and I don't think that's the effect you really want.<br />Good luck with the quilt as you go. I tried that many years ago, didn't like joining all the blocks later.<br /> <br />Have you tried QAYG before? My suggestion would be to quilt in sections not blocks so you will have less joining later. But I say that because it's something I don't like to do. You know what you like to do so base your decision on that.<br />BTW, great blocks, I hope to see it finished at Lowell this summer.cindyannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11703193567932719736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812859572745266279.post-11323156891340312312013-04-24T22:33:07.194-07:002013-04-24T22:33:07.194-07:00Absolutely beautiful.

I recently used Kona ash as background for one of my quilts and absolutely love it.<br /><br />Leah Day's has a great video on Quilt-As-You-Go(QAYG), check this out: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7_lwOfZWM8" rel="nofollow">Quilt Along #7 - Connecting Quilted Pieces</a><br /><br /><br />Also I would recommend that if you want to go with QAYG method, then add the sashing to the block directly rather than at the end to the joined blocks. Just my suggestion.<br /><br />These blocks are just stunning!<br /><br />Can't wait to see what you decide.MalinisQuiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11405486129583765748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812859572745266279.post-43741659532789213622013-04-24T18:05:59.665-07:002013-04-24T18:05:59.665-07:00This totally gorgeous Janis.

I'm terrible at trying to decide things for myself, I wouldn't want to offer any advice to you!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18331732432479030135noreply@blogger.com
