McCall's Quilting - Fancy Flowers

Have you been following the McCall's Quilting Quilt Along called Fancy Flowers? This project is an appliqué method used by Erin Russek of One Piece at a Time. This one has been fun for me as I learned a new appliqué method. The YouTube videos are great! Check it out if you have not already done so, the lessons are all available until some time in March. Here is my version of the project, all done except the quilting and binding. I am going to hand quilt this, so may be awhile before you see the final quilt. I want to have it ready for Spring.

I have also been busily working on my Patchwork of the crosses blocks and have pictures to show of completed blocks. Hope you enjoy them and if you get inspired to do one yourself using English Paper piecing and need a template to print your own paper foundations! let me know and I will be happy to send you a .pdf version I developed. I will need your email address though so I know where to send it.

Thanks for stopping by, Teresa

Your EPP blocks are just beautiful Teresa! I love EPP and you've picked some pretty fabric combinations. And I just love your applique quilt -- is it very big?

Those patchwork of the crosses blocks are AMAZING! I love them. Please send me the pattern if you don't mind. I love them. Your Fancy Flowers is so pretty too; it will be a perfect spring quilt, I am impressed that you will hand quilt that... what a treasure! Thanks for your kind offer of the template pattern, have a wonderful weekend!

Beautiful blocks and your applique is exquisite.

When I see those Lucy Boston blocks, I am almost tempted to do another. I love what some fussy cutting can contribute to those blocks. I just marked and cut them without paper piecing and they came out fine.

They look really really good! What a great job you are doing. I may just have to look up that QAL, it looks great.
