Toytime Circus

I must admit that I did actually finish this quilt a couple days after my last post but had given it back to colleen without taking a picture first. I guess I was just so excited that I forgot. So today I grabbed it back before she sent it off to the Quilter and snapped a couple of shots.

Firstly there was that last block, you know the one... with all 'those' letters! I have to say that it really wasn't that bad. I ploughed through them surprisingly quick. You will have to imagine the eyes on the ringmaster and his wagon of friends though, as I can't sew them on until the Quilter has done her magic.

 It was very bright outside when I took these pictures and as such has shown the fabrics to be a little lighter than what they actually are. Luckily I had snapped pics of them all as I went and you can click back to see each block up close. Well I guess this is it for Toytime Circus. I have had alot of fun creating this masterpiece and hope that you have enjoyed it with me.

Don't forget to leave a comment with a link to your BOM progress so I can check you out too!

Wow, time flies so fast! I have been very busy this past week finishing off ALL of the outer blocks. That's right, I'm up to the last block, the big one in the centre, with all those letters. I love doing all the animals but the letters require so much turning. It is not my most favourite part but as soon as I am past those rascally letters... it will be a quick (but accurate) tidy up of all the blocks and piece the whole beautiful thing together! I am so excited and I hope that my next post will have a final quilt top to show, if not it will be just one more week away!

Awww they are so cute! Just a reminder that the kit that you would buy from our store over here, includes all the fabrics you see here. I stole (ha ha ha) 1 of the pre-cut kits, so what you see, is exactly what you'll get!

If you're working on one of our BOM why not leave a comment with a link to your progress. I would LOVE to see what you're up to. Until next Wednesday...

Happy Sewing
