Do you remember this pattern? It's called Tybee Island, and it was in a magazine last year. Well, a year has transpired, and the publishing rights have returned to me, so from today through the end of the month I'm going to offer it as a free pattern! I really love this quilt, and I hope you will too. It's quick and fun, and visually it keeps you hopping. Okay, that was the free pattern part of the post, now for the question???
08-05-09 We hope that you enjoyed the free Tybee Island Pattern...thank you!
Kathleen over at Magik Quilter has been suggesting that I do a quilt-along...to tell you the truth, I'm not exactly certain how to do one. But, I've been reading and looking at lots of blogs, and I think I have it figured out. So if you are willing to come along for the ride, I'm going teach my Little Bouquet as a quilt-along. Lots of you have expressed interest in having the instructions; so here's a chance to use up your scraps, and we will make a little bouquet together! Game? Leave me a comment, and we will get started. It will be fun, I'll learn how to do a quilt along, and you will make yourself (or someone you love) a fancy, schmancy little quilt!
I am so excited...I can't wait to get started!
Cherri
I love your quilt-along idea. Count me in!

YES!! I love it!

The quilt looks pretty complex to me - I've never done applique before - but a quilt a long might be a good way to learn. Sounds like fun.

I am learning so I would like to try.
Hugs Mary.

I enjoyed my first cyber sew in on the 4th of July and got so much. I haven't played in a cyber quilt along so would love to join. Plus I am redoing my sewing room and it needs lovely picture like this quilt!
