Hometown 2 (my titles are so creative)

Pictures as promised, a lap quilt in Hometown by Sweetwater for Moda.
I went for the off centered square in a square in a square block and enjoyed reading each and every "hometown" on those awesome fabrics. 
I found soooo many I had been to, a few that I would like to go to, and some that I had no idea where they were.
I've never had to read and quilt at the same time before. 
Oh, and Houston was on there TWICE.  :)






Available in the shop.

Free Quilt Pattern for Applique Sashiko Circles



Download the FREE PDF HERE!!

So I thought I'd share this little pattern with all of you.
I would sell it but I wouldn't want to be blamed for someone's frustration with the time commitment, etc. of this pattern but I enjoyed it and most of the fun quilting projects out there are very time commitment heavy.
The smaller sizes are VERY do-able.
It's designed for raw edge applique with charm squares but you could also use any scraps that are appoximately 2.5" x 5" or larger.
Anyway, I'll stop talking so you can start quilting!
Have fun!

Fruitcake


Doesn't this just look like the perfect kind of presents?
Fabric ones that you don't have to wrap or clean up after... :o)

Definitely been in "Christmas mode" of late.
Fabric is Fruitcake by BasicGrey for Moda.
It's 22" x 25.5" and it is also in the shop.

More Bliss

So, for that "more to come" finish -
I have had this table topper laid out in fabric pieces for quite a few days now...
'bout time it got assembled.
I really do love this fabric line.
It's so cheerful!
Applique Leaf Table Runner in Bliss by Bonnie and Camille for Moda - 18.5" x 31" - in the shop.
This little runner is for my sister-in-law.
She requested the modern blue floral design fabric for a little winter decor.
I rather like it... and the pattern.
Hope she does too.

It should be on it's way soon... :o)

The overcast sky has not made for good pictures...

Worth the wait?
These were such a treat to make.
I love having great fabric with which to play.
It makes sewing so much more enjoyable!

Spring Lovin' Clementine!

My child is hiding under this somewhere...


So this is my latest finished quilt - used a jelly roll and some yardage for the borders, backing, and binding.
It was the perfect project for heading into spring.
Twin sized (washed once 'cause I couldn't not see it all crinkly) and now posted in the shop.
Hmmm, do I really want to see this go?

A little project today... a bigger one tomorrow.

Well, this is all I have to show you today...
there's a larger project that hopefully will be finished tonight/tomorrow for your viewing pleasure!
These coasters are just a modified version of the tutorial I posted here.
For the top of the coaster you just need to sew 6 (5" x 1.25") strips together lengthwise and square each block to 5" x 5"... complete as directed in the tutorial!
Charm squares and jelly roll strip scraps work great for this!

Wonderland 2

Here's the first one's twin!
Oh, so cute.
I feel like it's a child's board game, or construction paper project.

Wonderland 1


Another day, another quilt!
Love, love, love this fabric. Thank you MoMo for Wonderland. I even got the jelly roll for $24 at the quilt festival - STEAL!
Plus, there's another quilt from this fabric line that I'm going to go bind now.

Spicy Butterfly Baby Quilt

This was the project I finished today... and considering I wasn't feeling so hot I'm just excited that I got another thing on the checklist done. Now I only have...
2 more baby quilts
3 sets of coasters
2 table runners
...to finish before the WIP are wrapped up. I'm practically there... HA! Why did I start all of these at the same time?
