Kathy is coming along on her Jelly Bean block for Wanderlust. This is a Bonnie Hunter pattern from Quiltmaker--my favorite quilting magazine. She did not screw up the part I thought she did...she just has the center star to go. Really super cute block!
Tonight we went to the Nimble Thimbles (and two other guilds too) Barn Quilts presentation. The door prize was this cool metalwork quilt block! Suzi Parron (who wrote the first book on Barn Quilts) was the speaker and she was great. She is working on her second book on the topic now. She showed us quite a slide show and I loved the "I'm Lovin it" quilt block on the side of a McDonalds which was really unique. I could not find a picture of it online so I guess we have to wait for the next book to see it again!
Here is Suzi, she signed my book for me!

Love the quilt. You can definitely call yourself an advanced intermediate after making that one xxx
What a great looking quilt and Kathy's block is looking awesome!
the quilt is gorgeous! wow!
Congrats on an amazing finish! What a complex quilt pattern... I'd say you are at the advanced level now!
I'm a first-time visitor to your blog. I spotted the thumbnail of your flimsy and had to drop by. Your top is wonderful! and your timing is interesting. This week I found my copy of those instructions that I'd pulled from the old magazine some time ago. Wish I'd seen your group efforts sooner. I might have joined in.
How fun to have attended Suzi's talk in person. I've followed her blog and her projects for quite some time. She's so dedicated.
EXCELLENT!!!!
Such a beauty to have crossed off our bucket lists :)
I've had the pieces cut out and some of the squares pieced together for this quilt since it came out in the mag. :D I have a goal of getting the quilt that's been in my to-do pile for 18 years done and then tackle the rest of this one.
