Category: Quilts in Progress

As Ozzie may have mentioned, there has been a lot of sewing going on around here.  As a matter of fact, I have barely had a minute when I wasn’t either sewing or cooking over the past four or five days.  I will share some of my projects with you. My two color blocks are […]

Over the weekend, I made some progress on my Strip Quilt, using the Jocelyn fabrics by Sentimental Studios for Moda.  There are two blocks in the quilt, a "flower block" shown above and a chain block made up of green, white and yellow.  There are two units within the flower block.  One is a simple […]

Last Saturday I attended a class at Prairiequeens called We Bee Strippin’.  I have always wanted to go to one of those classes where you start with a kit of perfectly cut 2 1/2 inch strips and make a mystery quilt project.  Do you remember back in March when I taught a class at Prairiequeens?  […]

One of the activities planned for the Quilting Retreat was a UFO exchange.  We were all supposed to go through our UFO’s and choose one to trade or give away while up at the retreat.  The theory being one person’s garbage is another person’s treasure and all that.  So, in preparation for the exchange, I […]

I didn’t wait very long after all, did I?

This is what I am supposed to be working on.  As you see, I haven’t made much progress, beyond fondling the fabric for the first block.  I am participating in the Web Sampler Celebration and need to be getting these 12 blocks of the month going.  The blocks were all designed by Paula Barnes of […]

I have met my goal to finish a project or two before permitting myself to get started on anything new.  With Jelly Bellies, Cupcake and my Chocolate Sampler at the quilter’s, I am free to begin something fresh.  In anticipation of this day, for a couple of months now, I have had the beautiful Roman […]

I’d like to introduce you to my version of Cupcake, the Carrie Nelson Miss Rosie’s Quilt Company pattern Lisa and I were given when we took Carrie’s class at The Buggy Barn this August.  Carrie’s version was blue where mine is brown.  The pattern is not released yet, but my understanding is that when it […]

Thanks for indulging me in my reminiscing about my family’s annual Halloween party.  It has been fun sharing pictures with you, and I will have more over the next week or so, but thought I should get a few more quilty posts out here. Despite my preoccupation with my new puppy, I actually have been […]
