This was so much fun and as a relatively new quilter (started with one year of experience) and I really progressed in my quilting by sewing every week. I made many blocks I did not even know existed and some I never would have attempted. I am not so afraid of Y-seams or applique anymore! Thanks for showing my top - I'm honored!<br /><br />Seeing everyone else's version of the blocks was great, too, and helped me refine my designs. It would be really fun to do another BOW! pinkdeensterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18213616450282521020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654842531538502580.post-53106824222667966952013-09-07T19:55:47.474-05:002013-09-07T19:55:47.474-05:00I enjoyed your CW block of the week and managed to...I enjoyed your CW block of the week and managed to keep up with that, although my quilt is still waiting to be quilted. I haven't managed to keep up with the Grandmother's Choice, (my own fault really as I have too many projects on the go) but I'm intending to get stuck into it in November and get it finished. How about a block a fortnight instead of a block a week?Piphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07024358673602132526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654842531538502580.post-62566951193232255832013-09-07T18:02:22.106-05:002013-09-07T18:02:22.106-05:00I enjoyed this experience so very much!

Love Marci's idea of "first woman who". It was sometimes challenging to make 8" blocks from a nine-patch base design and I still have to master that block 48--I've been piecing for many years but that one got me. Going to hand-piece it the next time. Thanks for showing my top--I'm still looking for quilting ideas.<br />Barbara Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01997358370013910746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654842531538502580.post-63299400424142659662013-09-07T11:15:20.209-05:002013-09-07T11:15:20.209-05:00I had so much fun working on this quilt.

I need to go back and make a notebook to go with the quilt, have been invited to speak to a Girl Scout troop about the subject and to show them the quilt.<br />I'm toying with the idea of doing a "first woman who" quilt. Now Diana Nyad will need a block. I googled "first woman" and found lists of the first women to do different jobs or accomplishments. <br />I know it would be a lot of work, but another block of the week would be fantastic. Need a volunteer to piece blocks?Marcihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01610518305701852460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654842531538502580.post-19551871897157371362013-09-07T09:46:35.529-05:002013-09-07T09:46:35.529-05:00The virtual quilt show is beautiful!

I have always had the right to vote, but I have had men that think women do not belong in the field of her interest, for me that was the science field.
