The Desperate Housewife’s Quilt as you wish along starts tomorrow

Jun 29, 2011 by quiltjane 6 Comments

Tomorrow ( 1st July here in Australia) starts the marathon of 50 blocks in 50 weeks. I hope you can all join me as I set the challenge for 50 unique (as unique as one can get with 6 billion people in the world. Maybe somewhere, some one has come up with the same idea – the pressure is on).

This is not a quilt-a-long but a quilt-as-you-wish-a-long where you pick and choose what blocks you like and how you want to use them.

I will be having quest bloggers from week 2 onwards presenting their beautiful 8″ finished blocks. In total, we should make it to 100 blocks.

Blocks will be modern, traditional, colourful, neutral, easy, complex, pieced, foundation pieced, straight, curved and dimensional.

So throw on the comfy slippers, grab a beverage and let’s get sewing.
