Total Eclipse Part Two and a Special Treat!
As promised, more from our class with Jackie and the ladies in the class! Such great combinations--it really is hard to choose a favorite block....so, let's take a look at Sharon's blocks:
Look how smart and creative Sharon is, she made small crazy patch blocks out of the scraps!
I better show my blocks; some people are asking where they are, like my teacher--I think she is trying to see if I really am working--I am, I am:
See, I got a lot more done! Now I have to show you Maria's block and the special treat that Maria brought in to share with us:
First her blocks:
This is the Christmas Tree Skirt that Maria brought in to share with us--isn't this the most beautiful tree skirt you have ever seen? That is Maria beaming on the right--gorgeous, just gorgeous. She told us that she completed this tree skirt in 6 days at a retreat and it was her first Judy Niemeyer! Wow!!!
Well, that is the up date from this class; one more to go in a couple of weeks! If you ever have a chance to take a class from Jackie, jump on it--you will learn so much and accomplish even the most difficult quilts with ease! Happy quilting!

ReplyDeleteAll of these quilt blocks are gorgeous. Since I do not quilt they look very complicated. That tree skirt is stunning. Happy quilting...
ReplyDeleteBarb, your blocks are wonderful. All the blocks the other class participants made are super. I like all the colors. I would be in heaven sitting in that class looking at all those lucious fabrics. Wow! Thanks for sharing .
ReplyDeleteYour units are looking wonderful!! I love the four H-unit- with-the-KMs that you showed-- they are beautiful!! I'm still going slow as a snail and am almost all finished with my H units. (Don't tell Jackie, but I'm just slow and if I try to pick up the pace, I make mistakes). Hoping to kick butt this weekend. Happy quilting!! HOpe you're well-prepared for today's snowstorm!

ReplyDeleteBarb, it was so nice to have you in class and you did fantastic yesterday! I am looking forward to seeing your quilt on the design wall and almost done! Your version is just stunning! Thanks for the tip about the chocolate class too!
ReplyDeleteI saw your link on Canton Village Quilt Works and thought they were amazing. Your color combinations work so well together. I'd like to sign up to take a class on this. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI have always liked quilts with lots of circular piecing and lots of points. That last picture with the big round piece is very striking.
ReplyDeleteWonderful quilt blocks. I am also impressed by the crazy quilt ones from the leftovers. That's a beautiful tree skirt too.
ReplyDeleteWhat great things to see on your blog and so well sewn.
