The main quilt from my first book, Geese In The Rose Garden, is a block of the month quilt. It has 6 pieced blocks, 6 applique blocks and a border that is appliqued and pieced. For the last 7 months I have taught this BOM at Specialty Quilts. This Monday was the last segment.
It has been a wonderful journey. There were 19 women who participated. They either had little or no experience with applique. As the months went by I watched their confidence, skills and addiction grow. They are all now excellent at applique and able to tackle any project with confidence. It has been alot of fun and I am thankful to have met them all. I will miss them all. Below are some photos of their blocks.
nice jobs ladies, looks like all of you had a great time, I recognize a few faces from that group. Your blocks and quilts look wonderful. Great pattern and teacher!!!
