Design Wall Monday- April 28, 2014

I'm feeling a bit left out of the 'Action' with the Quiltmaker Blog tour Happening this week HERE.

They only let you TEST 3 times and I opted out for the 3rd time. 

It's been a while since I looked at my Tester Blocks...so I had to throw them out on the floor to see what I could see.  It would have been easier to upload them to EQ and Play like I did with the Guild Lotto  Blocks HERE. I have decided to wait until I have all 26 of the Guild Lotto Blocks done to finish that.

Volume 5 Blocks

 Volume 6 Blocks

They don't really go together at all!!! 

 I have been spending a lot of time playing in EQ7 since Playing in the "Quilt Zone" has been
nothing but frustration since April 12th, the day after I finished my 2009 UFO and Wendy's Quilt.

I got it to do a Part of a pattern this week.

Lots of starting and stopping and wasted threads.

I still have my Bernina Table and the older Mega Quilter that I need to SELL :(

I'm ready to SELL this one too!
Sorry for the WHINE!!! I live in Wine Country, lol

I saw a Gammill Vision II that costs the same as what I paid for this Frustrating Viking.

It's the last week of April and I have yet to make the center block of the Red and White Challenge Quilt.

That is on my agenda along with my LUS BOW.

Oh and Krazy Horse Quilters Quilt Show In Pendleton this week-end.

So happy to share-Volume 5 "Tester Blocks"

Here are a few of my "Tester" Blocks...in no particular order.  I follow a few of the Designers and have  read their Blogs. Knowing the names made it even more special to 'test' their Block for volume 5.  I was excited to see the ones in the Magazine that weren't named when I tested them. Today I will show the ones I tested that are on the Blog Tour.  That way I won't spoil the surprise for the designers. The link to their blogs are highlighted.
