Wanted to share some of my progress on DWR making for DD's wedding gift. So...... here are a couple of pix showing what I've done so far.

Your blocks will make a beautiful quilt.

It is going to be beautiful

Yes, that is going to be beautiful! I hope to do one of those someday.

Rosebud, your blocks look good! Which pattern did you end up using? I have the fabric and am starting one in January. New Year's resolution! LOL Hope mine looks half as good! Are you planning to hand quilt??

This is going to be a beautiful keepsake quilt.

It will be beautiful.

I used the templates for Pickle Dish / DWR to cut back ground melon and diamond. Used wedge template and large triangle template (squared) from El's Egg Money Quilts pattern for the arcs and cornerstones. I am using El's method of assembly line sewing for piecing, and Sharlene Jorgenson's method of block assembly.

I was unable to afford the fusable interfacing and had to revert to everything being pieced together, lol. That is why I am using sooooooo many different methods.

I plan to hand quilt it because my machine is too small to get the quilt in the neck and I don't know anyone with a LA that I could use. If I had found someone who could help me refurbish my grandmothers Singer, I would use it for machine quiting it.

If you have other questions when you start yours feel free to pm me.

Looks good it will be beautiful!!

You have so much courage to do this quilt...it will be a knockout when it's done
