Darlene's Slackers Quilt Along
Information
Love those huge sampler quilts with tiny blocks (like a Dear Jane quilt) but don't feel quite up to making one? Then this group is for you! We will be making one using larger (six inch) blocks and our quilt will have ONLY 140 blocks.

Welcome Fellow Slackers!
I will be making the blocks in the same order as they appear in the quilt not how they are alphabetically listed in the book but you are free to make them in any order you like. Each week pictures and tips will be posted in the Discussion Forum. Since some of you will be making them in the order they appear in the book or in no particular order we will include those blocks in the discussion too. A list of each block has magically appeared and you can post your tips and/or pictures under the blocks you made. Everyone is encouraged to add tips and/or pictures of their blocks. Our only rule is that each block has to be different. Let the fun begin!

If I were Karen I would be hiding in my office with the door closed waiting for the dust to settle. LOL
Psst Darlene may I make a suggestion. I noticed a lot of people asking about posting pictures, would it be possible to have some sort of Tutorial on how to do this that you could direct them to. You know we quilters need a lot of visual instructions. LOL.

Comment by Gico/GA on June 18, 2009 at 9:09am - MaryJo, what a great idea to put our finished blocks inside the sheet protectors with the instructions. I'm also ironing a piece of freezer paper on the back of my pieced blocks to keep them nice and flat for now.
