Thank you Janet (roguequilter) for walking me through the process necessary to add a tab to my blog and for helping me put the links for each post. You will now be able to go back and see the instructions for all the Sow-A-Long blog posts. I've even added the picture which has all the blocks, save for the latest Birds in the Air. THANKS JANET!! Linky-thing is still coming one of these days.
Oh, and I was a naughty girl...went onto ebay last week, still playing around looking for another Bernina and just happened over to the antique quilt blocks and bought absolutely gorgeous album blocks in red/white.
My plan is to put them on point with plain muslin. Aren't they fabulous?? Of course I needed another project, right??
Hope everyone is having a great week! I'll be quiet this weekend: we are babysitting! WOOHOO!!
Love to you all,
Randy
Way to go Janet! It took me a while to figure out tabs too. Sew Many Ways has a lot of handy tips for blogging stuff that has helped me out a lot. Of course, great blogging friends like Janet help more than anything :*)
ReplyDeleteOh look at those beautiful blocks.......lovely.
ReplyDeleteHave fun with your special boy.....let us catch up now :0).
Happy Sewing
Beautiful blocks! Of course you needed another project -don't we all?? LOL!
ReplyDeleteThe Tabs are terrific!! I'm doing Mr Linky at the end of May..if you dont' have it figured out by then I can help.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your blocks!! Of course you need another project!
It was fun talking to you, Randy! Glad it worked. Now I hear your voice when I read your blog! VBG
ReplyDeleteOh, those are beautiful blocks--I used to haunt ebay for vintage blocks. Don't get me started again, please!! I still have a few sets that have just been sitting for years. : )
I'm going to go "sow" my Barrister's Sow-Along blocks now!
my favorite is red and white, absolutely love these blocks, maybe this can be a block to add to sow along.
ReplyDeleteBrill! Now I can start at the beginning.

Thank you so much for the tab. I've finished 1 block on my quilt but I know I'll be depending on your site for most of the others.

Love the red and white! Love the TAB too! Thanks Randy and Janet!
ReplyDeleteThank you for adding the tabs. I haven't started your Sow-Along and wondering if I'd be able to find all the instructions. I've got a couple of things to finish up first before starting another project. Thanks again.

SOW HAPPY for you -- I wish I had the time to do it with you, I just haven't..sorry about that! Just on a lunch break here, then back to class!
ReplyDeleteThanks for making it easier for us challenged sowers! FYI Babysitting is a JOB, you are grand parenting, it's FUN!
ReplyDeleteHi Randy
ReplyDeleteThanks for the blocks - I am loving this. Is there an easier way to do quarter square triangles? I vaguely remember doing them in a square, sewing and cutting...
I cannot get my bonus block to have the double pinwheel. Somehow I have reversed the colourway and it looks funny. I have the main pinwheel but not the secondary one.
Thanks
Deb
You are awesome! All tabbed and everything.
ReplyDeleteThose red and white blocks are beautiful.
Thanks for the tab to the sow along blocks. I missed quite a few of the original posts. Vintage quilt blocks on ebay . . . who knew? Not me. I'm off now for a little explore :)
ReplyDeleteLove the red and white. Great find. Enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteGreat to have that tab!! Randy....I am all caught up!!! And that is after starting this the first of April...and doing two quilts. Stop by and take a look on my blog today at the blocks. I feel like I have done a lot!!! Can't wait till Wed!! Have a great weekend and thanks for a great Sow along..this will be a great Jubilee quilt(s) for turning fifty!!
ReplyDeleteYea for the tab! Wow, I didn't realize I was so far behind! I need to get cracking this weekend. Am enjoying the sew along
ReplyDeleteI think they're called Pages but what the heck, I am glad you are Tabbed! Love the quilt blocks. I have never had too much success with old blocks or quilt tops, seems like I get ones that look great from the front in pictures but upon arrival are so threadbare, or have a scant 1/8 seam. Yours look great!
ReplyDeleteA few years ago I spent way too many hours haunting the "vintage quilts" category of E-bay. I bought a few, some OK ones, one total disaster, and not a single one as striking as your red and white blocks. They look like a fun project to work on. And yes, we always need another project. Because we know our time is valuable, the projects we decide to add to our lists are usually special or important or unique ones. Hopefully we can always make time for those.
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful purchase, these are just beautiful!
ReplyDeletecan't wait to see the finished quilt!

I'm busy catching up with the sow-a-long blocks and I've found your tab with all the links soooooo helpful. Thanks for taking the time to organise this and get it tabbed :)
