Category: Finish It
My little Patriotic quilts are stacking up. I think it's time for them to go off and be quilted! I was considering quilting the smaller ones myself, but I am so much happier with the results when I send them out to be done professionally. This one, "Faithful", may be my favorite. It turned out […]
This pattern is an oldie but a goodie. It is Liberty Road by Minick and Simpson. I have wanted to make it for quite some time, and finally got around to it. It doesn't have an outer border, although you could add one on if you wanted to. I think the pattern is supposed to […]
Hope this photo doesn't make anybody dizzy. I have all the blocks made for the Jo Morton S'mores quilt–I believe there are 113 square in a square blocks and 28 pieced setting triangles, and 4 pieced corner triangles. I think I am going to love this quilt when I get it put together, but the […]
Honestly, I was not sure how much I was loving this quilt until I took all the dark brown nine patches out. Then it changed for me. It suddenly coordinated better with the border fabric I had on hand, and was just more pleasing to my eye. All the un-sewing I did on Sunday was […]
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 […]
