Category: Finish It
I can't tell you how much I love this little quilt!! It is "Endearments" by Betsy Chutchian, made with her fabric collection Rachel Remembered. The finished quilt measures 29 3/8" square, and has a Memorial Day/Fourth of July vibe to it. I can see keeping this out on my dining table from May through September. […]
I did. I cut this quilt up into a rectangular table runner. I just took a deep breath and let the rotary cutter do its thing. If you are just joining in, this is what I had to start with: The quilt is made up of seven rather complicated, labor intensive blocks, which are sewn […]
Courthouse Steps is finally a finish. This quilt has been at least a year in the making. I started out strong, then put the project away, and only brought it back out in the New Year. This is my year to Use It Up, so the quilt is made entirely of scraps from my stash […]
My little Pinwheel Puzzle quilt is finished. I think I will put this one on the coffee table in my living room for a more toned down St. Patrick's Day accent. In fact, I could live with these colors all year long in my house. The pattern is an old one by Teri Atkinson, and […]
I've been working on this cute little table topper for Valentine's Day. The fabric is Love You! by Sandy Gervais for Moda (I used two charm packs), and believe it or not, the pattern is actually three patterns. All patterns are by Miss Rosie's Quilt Company: Full House (a Schnibbles pattern), Tiny Town and In […]
Here is sweet little Barn Stars, a Kim Diehl Simple Whatnots offering from a couple of years ago. I had subscribed to the bi monthly kits, but quit the club when I realized the kits were piling up and I wasn't making them. I have recently dipped back into that bin of kits and have […]
This scrappy nine patch quilt was inspired by a plastic bag full of 2 inch squares left over from another project, and the pattern "Loose Change" by Miss Rosie's Quilt Co. The pattern is in a book called Miss Rosie's Quilt Collection. The Miss Rosie quilt is made from 2 1/4" strip sets. Since I […]
Drumroll please…I am so proud to present my first finish of 2018. This is Triangle Gatherings 2017, a year long project hosted by Lisa Bongean of Primitive Gatherings. I thoroughly enjoyed this year long saga, and want to thank Lisa for her generosity in hosting the sew along and providing the many different block settings. […]
New Year's Resolutions? At first I was going to say "No, I don't believe in it", but I do have one. That is to get these two projects off my design walls!!!!!!! They have both been up there for the better part of 2017, and they must go. The one on the right is Triangle […]
I thought I'd look back at the quilts I completed in 2017 and share. There are more quilts in the parade than usual for me, mainly because I focused more on making smaller quilts. I intend to continue with this habit, as there is a limit to the number of full sized quilts I can […]
