All About Me



This is tonight's progress on my Halloween version of "All About Me". Three rows are now together.

I am having a little bit of difficulty since I don't have a design wall to put this up on. I tried placing the blocks on a piece of flannel. That worked, but I don't have a wall big enough to hang the flannel on. I have been using the floor as a substitute design wall and then moving the blocks to the bed of my long arm.

I am planning to make my quilt 8 blocks wide by 9 blocks long. That will make my quilt's finished size 88" x 99". I haven't decided if I will add borders or not.

  4. Your quilt sure is cute. I don't have a design wall, either. I guess I started quilting before anyone really visualized a quilt as something to hang up on a wall. I like to put my blocks on the bed. I use a plain sheet underneath, or the back of one of my quilts.
