and so it begins.....

Saturday morning (10/19) I got my customer quilt loaded and looked at potential threads to use: 

while BG showed me Show and Tell of her one block wonder quilt (she is doing 4 quadrants and then sewing together into a king-sized quilt in the RV....OUTSTANDING!!!!:  

I've never seen one with those diagonal stripes of solid fabric....very neat affect

And she also completed a quilt for her daughter's boyfriend:

Then we dove into our project for this visit:

our GORGEOUS background fabric

and we begin....

tweaking....tweaking....tweaking.....

we finally got smart and instead of struggling with 5 pieces for each dragonfly, we made single paper patterns for each dragonfly to make it easier to just get the placement/angles correct

June came for a visit and helped us for awhile

now we're using the placement of the paper dragonflies on the right to layout the wall hanging on the left

there was still a LOT of tweaking going on as the wings would stick out, or something had to be lowered or raised a few inches, or there was too much overlap with another dragonfly

almost there.....

We quit around 8 PM and just relaxed and talked for a bit before falling into bed.
