Seagull Paradise Block 3

I’m making lots of progress on Seagull Paradise quilt! The latest block came out on the 24th and is free until December 23, after which it’s $5.99. It’s not too late to join this fun sew-along. There’ll be a link at the bottom of this post for you.

I’ve put together the background on her latest block, but I’m still finishing off the third block of snail trails and sailboats. I just have to add a set of 4 squares along the top of this one and it’s done.

I’m going to try a quilt-as-you-go process since I don’t have a long-arm machine. Having never done any true free motion quilting other than on a pouch, it’ll be interesting to see how it looks in the end. Its probably a good idea to start with something simple. Should I go over the appliqué or around it? I’m thinking the latter might be better? Decisions, decisions!

The first three blocks.

I’ll be back with another card in a few days. Enjoy the weekend! 

Blessings,

Carmen
