RJR's Inaugural BOOM 2021

@whofilets   Thank you

[fajita]

All done.

I didn’t quilt the sashing. I used the embroidery machine to embroider nine patterns per block. I used stash flamingo fabric for the back. I bought the blue binding fabric. The sashing is material from @TartanPaint in the swap.

Thankyou for organising this @RJR_38, and to everyone who donated a block. I think it’s a lovely little quilt. Approx 45” square.   [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

@fajita  that centre block really pops! Love it.

[Lilian]

Wow that is gorgeous, I love the quilting 

[Iminei]

@fajita  Is that the 1718 quilt behind it ?????

[fajita]

No, @Iminei. 1718 is still hanging above my stairs.

The one behind is my old faithful in batik fabric.

[Iminei]

colours are glorious!

[William]

Wow! Fab colours!!! Well done!

[Catllar]

So I've cut all the sashing and the corner squares and it's all packed away with the new sewing machine for its trip to Montpellier.

[Catllar]

This thread's gone very quiet - are they all done in secret?? 

I've pieced my top and I think it's going to be a table cloth with just a plain white backing and no wadding. This is mainly because I have no wadding and can't face sourcing it at the moment, nor do I have any backing fabric other than plain white!

[Iminei]

Yes come on all of you, wake up ...

What have you done with all your lovely BOOM blocks ???

@Catllar  I can send you wadding ??

[Pearl]

@Catllar , I could bring you wadding if we didn’t have a petrol shortage.

I need to buy some fabric for sashing and setting triangles, and I want to see it in real life, not mail order, so that the colour is right.  I went to Rochester on Thursday only to find that the P&Q shop there now only opens Tues, Wed, Fri and Sat.
