I am cutting a few blocks at a time as my time schedule is very hectic – will give me handy pieces to play with when I can find the time. Even though I bought the pattern, I know I am going appreciate your help especially when it comes to adding in the bear.
You have chosen some fab fabrics, with little tractors and so much more, Wonderful detailed instructions, I am giving this a miss, but know everyone who is joining in will have heaps of fun once more.
I'm making a 68×84 size quilt. Nothing like adding a little challenge to my cutting :)! Looking forward to this week's cutting and preparing. Love the fabric choices you made for your quilt.
Just found your quilt along via cyberquilters. i am jumping in. I love your pattern and have been wanting to make a bear claw for a long time….so the time is right! Thank you!
Thanks for the QAL Lorna! I got my fabrics picked and will be cutting them this week.
