Rainbow Neighbourhood QAL

Posted byCarol AndrewsPosted inQuilting, What’s Going OnTags:, ,

Once again Sandra from MMM Quilts is hosting her seventh annual fun QAL.

Isn’t this the cutest pattern? It has several sizes, too! 😉

Sandra has this to say about her fun event:

“As per usual, the QAL starts on a special day, April 3, with the flimsy due on another even more auspicious day, June 15. What’s with these special days, you may ask yourself? You’ve never heard of them? Well, long-time participants well know, and probably mark their calendars as my dad did, for the June 15 date for sure. However, if you are new, allow me to explain before I give you your homework for the week!”

These are Sandra’s past QAL’s.

I have been following Sandra (a fellow Canadian) for a while and will say I have really enjoyed the quilt Alongs I’ve joined in.

I did have the privilege of testing Sandra’s pattern when she finished it and here’s my project:

I used the bench pillow part of the pattern and made a new Christmas runner for my Son and DIL’s dining table at the farm. 😉

I have used several of Sandra’s patterns and always found them to be well written and easy to follow.

I seem to be missing a few photos of some other quilts, but you get the idea that I enjoy Sandra’s starry patterns. Some are quilted and gifted. Some are patiently waiting their turn to be finished.

I’m jumping in and have the perfect fabrics for the Rainbow Neighborhood pattern.

If you’d like the details (it started this week but you can easily catch up) just click on the logo or the pattern photo.

Thanks for reading my post. I do hope you head over to Sandra’s site to check out all the details and join in the fun! 😉 Carol

I have been fondling fabric and creating things with fabric and fiber for as long as I can remember. My children had homemade clothes, blankets, canning and quilts most of their lives. Now I create goodies to share! Hope you enjoy viewing them as much as I enjoy making them! When I am not creating with fiber or fabric I keep busy with Dear Heart, kids, grandkids, great grandkids.

  3. Gosh Carol, you really did go to town on “Let Your Star Shine” pattern! I love it. Thank you for promoting my QAL; cannot believe it’s the 7th year! Love seeing your collection – the Waltzing With Bears you did is especially gorgeous. I’m so glad you’re hopping in for another QAL! I need to get my house block together for Monday, egad. Spent a few hours today actually cleaning and dusting my sewing room, so I’m ready to sew all weekend.
