Category: Finish It
The miles of binding are completed, and Sara's Log Cabin quilt is installed on her bed. Remy jumped right up on it and told us he thought it would be ok. What is it with our pets and new quilts? They always want to lie down on them to test them out. How many times […]
As part of my Year of Finishing Projects, I have just completed my Tumbler quilt. I had previously thought this quilt was a finish, but after some reflection, decided it needed a couple of borders. I used some solid black for a narrow containment border, and cut up the fabric I had intended to […]
Oh dear, I have to admit I got side tracked again over the weekend. I was rummaging around in the garage and found a project box labeled Mystery Block of the Month 2013. When I opened the box, I discovered 12 completed blocks of the month in the 3 Sisters Peace on Earth collection, along […]
I wanted to share this little quilt with you. I had made it during a Spools sew along a few years ago, and never got the borders on it. I made all my spools with strips of different fabrics in the same color way. In other words, the green spool is made up of […]
Sara is doing a happy dance, now that I have the borders on her Log Cabin quilt. This quilt is going out for quilting this week, and will be a nice addition to her bedroom decor in her new house. Gosh, I had so much fun with all of you, voting on which log cabin […]
I am feeling so good about donating some of my unquilted tops to various charitable organizations! Here is one I called "Inner Cowgirl" that I sent off last week. I still think it is kind of cute, just not for me. Here is another cheery one that hopefully, someone will like. I believe this was […]
My fun little exercise of going back four years on my blog to see what I was working on then, and where it is now provided a huge eyeopening shock to me. In the photo above, you see hanging various unquilted tops (called flimsies by some). These hanging tops were mostly made in 2015 and […]
I thought it would be fun to go back four years and see what I was working on and share it with you. Since my sewing progress has been pretty much nil lately, this will be a way to at least share some content with you. Let's check out what I was working on then […]
Well, it didn't get done by Christmas 2015, but I can tell you it will be on my table during the holidays in 2016! This is Paganini, a Miss Rosie Schnibbles pattern that has a number of variations in how to construct the block. This little pattern is worth the price, that is for sure. […]
2015 was the Year of the Mini Quilt for me. I found making these smaller quilts lots of fun. Using them as little table toppers throughout the house made me happy. Mini quilts use little fabric, and are ideal for charm squares, layer cakes or scraps. Anytime you love a fabric collection, but don't really […]
