I finished all the blocks for my 2012 block of the month project, Dancing with the Stars by Carol Doak. It has been a great project, and I love the colours, even though I don’t know what I’m going to do with the finished quilt yet. I am thinking of hanging it on a wall, but it’s pretty big. In January I get the borders to put on, and already I just barely have a piece of floor big enough to lay it out. Here are the last three blocks:
Quickstep
Paso Doble
Jive
I admit that I don’t know what all these dances are, and I don’t watch the show “Dancing with the Stars”, but I do love the quilt.
I’m going to take my time and quilt it carefully. My goal is to have it complete by New Year’s.
You did a wonderful job! It’s just gorgeous.
love it!!!
Wow! I love your quilt… those are some amazing blocks! The diagonal alternating blocks are such a great contrast.
This makes me wish I could paper piece. I don’t because I just can’t get it straight in my brain and my pieces never turn out right but this is AMAZING!
It’s absolutely beautiful, Beth. Can’t wait to see the finished product.
This is one stunning quilt! Can you ; if you don’t mind….tell me where I can get the pattern. I just adore this quilt.
The pattern is called “Dancing with the Stars” by Carol Doak. I got it as a block of the month (including fabric) from a local quilt shop – Sew Sisters in Toronto. I don’t know if you can get just the pattern, but other quilt shops offered the BOM.
Beautiful quilt. I love it.
This is just gorgeous! I love the Paso Doble block, there is so much detail in it! I’d like to do more paper piecing, it produces such stunning results.
What a stunning quilt! I love the setting blocks to tie it all together and show off those beautiful stars at their best!
wow! Amazing work!
