Wow some of you have been super fast stitchers!
I'm about 1/2 way there. I've decided to stitch all of my blocks before adding the borders and putting the whole quilt together.
My background fabric is cream with little white flowers. I think I measured it correctly - well I hope so anyways otherwise I'll be on the hunt for more background fabric ;-)
I have to say that going on a long drive, and having someone else drive, makes for excellent stitching time. My DH did most of the driving between our trip from home (just south of Sydney) to Melbourne (around 900km each way). These little lovelies are the perfect travel sized stitching items.
And for anyone who may have missed my earlier post, here's my brush with fame and the actual Tis the Season quilt experience. Wish I'd taken a better photo of it - and maybe one with the designer.
Happy Stitching Everyone xoxo

wow you had a good trip with all that stitching..............yes these are a great size.............I can't sew in the car.........makes me sick..........wished I could..........
i saw your post earlier but very exciting seeing Natalie and the quilt for real...........
Your blocks are looking good Donna.
Love the Tis The Season quilt. your picture is just fine.
Good job! I don't know how you do it though - the stitching in the car. I tried it... and it was TERRIBLE!! Maybe cause of the roads we travel on?!
Your blocks are lovely and the background fabric is so pretty... lucky you to be able to stitch in the car...

Your stitching looks beautiful! Did you see that quilt at AQC? I saw one there - is it the original? I'm impresssed that you stitched in the car - I think I would be sick within the first five minutes! Like you I am stitching all of mine first too - will have to do a post. Happy Stitching!, Susie
Lovely. Wish I could stitch while driving - being a passenger, of course, but motion sickness prevents it! You certainly did well. And to see the completed quilt and designer - bonus!!
Looking forward to the borders.
