I cannot believe it has been a year since I started this BOM! My first full-length BOM finished, and most certainly not my last.
The funny thing is, I love these blocks so much. I love the colours and the great mix of block designs. Why so funny? Because half of the prints I used just aren’t a big favourite of mine at all. But as my aunt said, it’s like art – more than the sum of its individual parts!
In all honesty, who knows when I will get around to sashing and finishing the top, let alone the back, especially as I’ve run out of this particular white homespun. Any advice welcome on that point! Now to get crackin’ on the Fat Quarter Shop’s Designer BOM… I just got Block 7 and have yet to finish Block 5. Oops.

Your blocks are lovely! I think you’ll have a gorgeous quilt once it’s finished.
Merry Christmas!!

I really like that quilt. It looks like something that I would make. Love the colours.

Oh your blocks all look so fantastic together! The fabrics and colours go together beautifully! Wonder if you could maybe pick out one colour to use as the sashing rather than white?

I love them Alyce! So fresh and bright – it will be a gorgeous quilt! Merry Christmas x

So lovely! I really like this fabric collection too, it’s so fun and bright! My Craftsy BOM blocks are also in Summersault, but with a cerise background. The white you used makes the colors really pop and adds a nice crispness to them. 🙂

They look great. Happy Christmas! As a fellow aussie living overseas in Asia I have enjoyed finding your blog this year – it has inspired me to keep working at my quilting and to keep trying new things. Enjoy the holidays!

Your aunt is right– my mom always says that every quilt needs an “ugly” or two, because they make the other prints shine!
As for the sashing, have you considered another color? I think a pale green or a pale turquoise might look awesome with these!

These aare really fantastic ideas in concerning blogging.
You have touched some nice things here. Any way keep up wrinting.

Lovely. I would use a really dark dashing to add a punch. Maybe a navy blue or hunter green. I think it would pop all the light colours even more.
