One of the BOM's I didn't finish then was Lillibet's Garden by Beth Ferrier. She offered it as a free BOM on her site in 2006. It's available now as a booklet and can be ordered on her site.
It's a beautiful quilt, but I still don't know if I'll ever make the whole quilt as it is designed, even though I love applique. For now I decided it was past time that I at least finished making the remainder of the pieced blocks. So I spent all afternoon on the final three. Beth always has some creative ways to make difficult piecing easier. But they still took me longer than I had expected.
This one is called Turkey Tracks

This is Climbing Roses--16 Y-seams!.jpg)
And this is Goose Tracks--12 Y-seams.jpg)
The other 5 blocks I pieced in 2006 can be seen here
I'll have to let my thoughts percolate awhile and decide what I want to do with these.

You do amazing work...
You like to do the hardest work !
I sewn just a few Y-seams but I didn't like at all !
It is wonderful to see someone is making some of the beautiful blocks which most people put in the too hard basket!

The blocks look great, Mary. I started that BOM too, and have one more pieced block to make. I don't know if I'll ever do the rest of the quilt or not. At the time I thought it was absolutely beautiful. I followed Beth's piecing directions, but I wasn't sure that it made it any easier.
