Help! I can't stop!!!

Ok, so I got the latest issue of Quilter's Newsletter Magazine and really
liked the quilt that had ovals appliqued to 4.5x5.5" rectangles. It
intrigued me. But it wasn't until I watched one of the current episodes
posted on the Simply Quilts site yesterday that I realized there was a "new"
way to do them! (Plus I already had the book from the author on the SQ
episode.)
http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/pac_ctnt_98..._58466,00.html
So this afternoon I started playing. It's now quarter till midnight and I'm
forcing myself to stop making blocks. I have 16 made! (I did stop for a
while to make a turkey breast and mashed potatoes, etc.) My sewing room
floor is flooded with batiks I've thrown all over the place! Help!

Let's see, Leslie likes batiks, you could just scoop them into a box for
her. We wouldn't want you to drown, now would we? evil grin Do not send
them to me, I'm trying to clean up. Are you going to post pics of your
lovely applique blocks?

That link took me to Floating Leaves, so I guess they have
changed the videos available.

Can you name the book or designer or technique?

If you look at the little menu on the left....the next video after the
floating leaves is the Pieced Curves. There are three videos available.
The technique I'm using is the second one. Although I was also tempted by
the floating leaves...but I don't have the bleach stop chemical.
Whew...that's good! The book is "Pieced Curves...so Simple" by Dale
Fleming. I'll post pictures tomorrow when I get more done.

Here's the technique. Only I'm doing ovals like the quilt in the QNM
article. I need to get some more Avery's permanent glue stick tomorrow.
Mine is old and gummy. And I tried another one and found out why this
particular brand is recommended....it worked much better than my "quilters'
fabric glue stick". I just checked the QNM site, but they don't have a
picture of the cool oval quilt. Now it's 1:15 and I can't get to sleep.
But I did make myself leave the sewing room and try to watch some TV to wind
down.

you can go to hgtv home page and click on videos and
type simply quilts on the search and it brings up 105
simply quilt shows and it also has a lot of their other
craft and woodworking videos on too.

behind, but that's worth a try.

And why two layers of freezer paper?
