I have my squares in progress pinned up on a bulletin board on my workroom door. I have seen in catalogues huge pieces of felted fabric that you put up on the wall, and then your squares, etc. can be put on it, like a flannel board. That way you can move them around and decide how to put it all together. I have a hallway wall that I really want to do this to.
I hadn't used the freezer paper method for applique until now, and it works really well with these thin silk tie fabrics. I may try to do a tutorial later this week.
This "license plate" tag came from the tie I used on this square.
My husband and I are going on a short road trip and I am so thankful that I don't have a problem with motion sickness. I am looking forward to having some sewing time in the car.

Forest is convinced you are making this quilt because you know we are having a boy...I told him not so fast..But if we do have a boy and you want to give this to us I would gladly take it off your hands. Once again, your creativity blows me away. Martha has nothing on you!
What a labor of love! I'm not sure if I could sit still long enough to do something like that.
I do love how you are using the ties.
OMG -- THAT is the most beautiful, creative, dazzling thing.... ever. Your pattern is unique and your colors are perfect!!!! I am endlessly impressed and amazed with you. (Love the silk tie tag license plate.)
