new projects about to hit the floor... or the ceiling.

Swing by the shop if you want to see the finished products of the last two weeks of furious sewing... and if you just can't live without these well, you can have them too... also, a pattern for this quilt (in Panache by Sanae for Moda) is currently in the works.

Tablerunner Project with Tutorial

Mary Englebreit Friends and Flowers for Moda fabrics have (finally) made there way across the sewing table, and I LOVE them! So vintage looking and cheerful! In the works from this fabric line so far: a baby blanket and tablerunner.

Pics of the oober deliciousness.




To make both: 1 jelly roll and the usual "sashing/backing/binding" fabric



Cut 5" segments (needed 72 for the runner, 144 for the baby blanket)



Sew together into long strips of 8 mixing the fabrics at random


Mix the strips until you like the arrangement offset for a layered brick look.

Cut 2 1/2" pieces off of every other row and stitch to the other side of the strip.


Sew strips together (9 total) and square runner with a rotary cutter.


Cut backing fabric to size, baste, quilt, and enjoy!

Approximate finished size: 18" x 36"

My baby quilt will be posted later this week! Happy quilting!
