2016 Block Party, Eleanor Rules (El's Rulers in Action!)

[Memeeof6]

Thanks gardenquilter. Did they come in the mail or email. And how did you get the discount on the rulers we need? Thanks for your help. I need to get going. I'm a procrastinator and I don't need anything that might help keep me back.

Memee,
Your patterns will come via regular mail. The sale flyer will be emailed and also enclosed in with the patterns. You should already have the email....check your spam folder, sale ends 31 March.

I never could get the discount to work have ordered twice now paid full price would love to figure out discount and no emails either but I do have stuff and am sewing

[Memeeof6]

I got my patterns today! Am anxious to watch webinar again to put the instructions with the pattern so I can follow along and put pictures with instructions. I still haven't received sale prices in my pattern package or email (not even spam). Since the sale is over March31 I might as well order them anyway. Anxious to get going and join everyone. Thanks

[Memeeof6]

I have all my patterns and finally got the discount link and ordered the ruler. They said it was sent today so I'll be all caught up. Thanks for everybody's help!

Yes I really am moving right along although I have a couple of confessions to make first they are not quilted although I am hoping I can work on that this week coming.

Second with the Lemoyne star I had a misunderstanding with myself and only half read the instructions to I wound up with all my stars going in one orientation and my 4 patches being the size of one on the one of the patches in the correct size so I had to go back make the right size 4 patches and more stars in the correct orientation I had very little fabric left but got the top together as shown in pattern book then I had all these stars left and four patches thus the second quilt I put in on point to make it larger, had a devil of a time with the math and the 4 patches in the corner but finally worked it out. Then I have some 4 patches left over and am now looking for the right background will go modernish on that one.

Third you would think I would have learned about reading by the time I got to the water wheel but misread again and trimmed some of the blocks the wrong size which left me with an incorrect number for the quilt as described, so I kept back a couple more cut them in different sizes on purpose and went modernish.

I have finally found the fabric I want to use for crazy ann but may have to hold off for awhile before I start it. I need to really read the instructions from now on.

Well on the upside I got a couple of extra tops and had a wonderful laugh at myself.




























I just occurred to me that you really can't see the fabric real well on the water wheel. I had a layer cake, charm pack and jelly roll that I won as a door prize so I used them for the drunkards path and the water wheels.

Lyn they look awesome. I just watched waterwheel and love it ! I totally forgot about it this month lol. I have just the jelly roll for it too. I also have some scraps to make a mini wall hanging with the lil ones
