Category: New Projects
I just could not help myself. With all the new Miss Rosie Little Bites patterns just released and the pile up of newly ordered charm packs coming to the door, I just had to start a new project. The pattern I am using is Trace and the fabric collection is High Street by Lily Ashbury […]
Well, that isn't really true. The cutting was simple, but all of those little squares and rectangles are weird sizes: 1 3/8", 1 5/8", 1 7/8", 2". You have to keep your wits about you while you are cutting this pattern out, I tell you. No chardonnay within a mile. And once they are all […]
Ooops. This is what comes of having too many projects going on at once and having a messy cutting table. Oh well, that tape measure was all chewed up from Ozzie munching on it anyway. I had been measuring the top of an almost completed quilt with the measuring tape, and started cutting out a […]
YES!! I am very happy now. Look how cute these little blocks are, who wouldn't smile to see them? I have been dreaming of making a Kaleidoscope quilt, like Cindy at Hyacinth Designs made, but I have to wait for my special ruler to arrive. As soon as it comes, I will start cutting out […]
As you can see, I have a couple of projects on the design walls. These two projects have been keeping me occupied in the lovely lazy week after Christmas. I pulled out my Scrappy Trips box and made quite a few additional blocks. I love the bright colors in this quilt, but the uncontrolled scrappiness […]
That would be Red Pineapple, my homage to French General fabrics, their reds in particular. It seems that there are a lot of folks working on Pineapple quilts lately! I shamelessly copied Cathy (Quilting on Main Street), her colors and her method. Thelma has been working on a foundation pieced version of her own, but […]
This must be my week to try out new rulers. It all started with Cathy over at Quilting on Main Street. Cathy just finished a gorgeous quilt she calls Rendevous, which is a Pineapple Block quilt. She did hers all in French General reds, with glorious results. Go have a look at her quilt, so […]
Truly, I am working on sewing my rows together for Message in a Bottle, and will be showing you that progress in another post soon. Sometimes a quilter just can't help it, but needs to start a new project. Even before the last one is finished. While I was at the Road to California quilt […]
