My friend Rachel and I signed up to do this BOM, it is a Lynnette Hyland design called 'window to our garden.'
So Rach this blog is for you, so that you can see how I laid out months 3 and 4 on my piece of green fabric, which I had cut down to a 30" square. I had a good look on Lynette's blog and I think we will use the rest of the green to make leaves on a tree which is going to go up the left hand side of the quilt.
I just have to put the yellow centres on the flowers and then I will cut the piece diagonally in half along the ironed line. (No stretchy bias edge to spoil doing it this way.) As you can probably guess putting the pieces on at different angles took a bit of getting my head round so I hope this helps you. I have also decided that I'm not going to put the 2 walking ducks on yet as there is more applique to add between the boy in month 4 and the ducks; I may put mine on in reverse when the other applique is on as it will give more room.
Have fun can't wait to see yours.

  1. Hi Anth, thank you for sharing the picture, I am working my way through my huge list of things to do and unfortunately this is way down the list. I am really looking forward to getting started though. Can't wait to see it in real life :)
