We went over to the storage facility and totally unpacked that huge box, and we found my PHD (Project Half Done)... or as we also call them... my big UFO.
ABOVE: as you can see, I have masses to do... I'm doing it using the 'Quilt As You Go' technique.
ONLY... I have never used that technique before... so at some point down the line, probably MONTHS from now I will be asking for some help with how to join all the blocks together! Anyone know of a good tutorial video on You Tube?
For now I will concentrate on getting all the blocks assembled and quilted... cos I can do that part on me own.
I am in love with this quilt already... I adore blues.
I hope everyone is having fun working on their UFO's, I will try and fit in some small UFO's while still working on the Dresden Plate Quilt too.
ONWARD...

Wonderful looking blocks. So glad you were able to pack them away and protect them. sorry, have no idea on Quilt-as-you-go method but all the best.
Blue and White - always so fresh - it will be beautiful when it is finished
Thanks Fiona, I will check out your link.
I adore your blue Dresden - glad it was safe and sound patiently waiting for you. QAYG has a variety of methods. When you're ready just google it and you will find heaps of info.
So pleased you have found them now. They are looking gorgeous. You will find heaps of information on QAYG if you google it, as Shari says. There area few methods and it depends on whether you have sashings, and so forth. If you get stuck someone will be sure to be able to give you advice. Bloggers are good like that arent they.
Beautiful blue plates. I have never done the QAYG method so I am of no help.
