Here is Metro Hold the Lattice. I have the rows almost half sewn together. I made the top with a collection of Circa 1934 fabric and the Quick Curve Ruler by Sew Kind of Wonderful. I took liberties with the pattern (actually called Metro Lattice) and left out a pieced lattice that I didn't particularly […]
I can't take credit for the clever name, my friend Thelma came up with it first. We are both working on this pattern called Metro Lattice, from Sew Kind of Wonderful, using the Quick Curve Ruler. Thelma made an executive decision to leave out the pieced lattice the pattern calls for and to set […]
I tell you, I am obsessed with this Quick Curve Ruler by Sew Kind of Wonderful! I keep wanting to try it out on pattern after pattern. Just so you know, I bought my own Quick Curve Ruler and am not being compensated by Sew Kind of Wonderful in any way. My opinions are going […]
After a super busy week, I was able to sit down for a couple of quiet hours on Sunday and sew my rows together on Urban Winter. The quilt top is now a flimsie. (Is that how you spell flimsie, or is it flimsy?) I am very pleased with how well this pattern went together. […]
I got cracking on my one free afternoon this week and made 30 more Metro Hoops units. I still need to attach the corner triangles and square things up, but I am stalled until the extra brown corner fabric arrives. I had no issues with the curved piecing or trimming up the little shield shapes […]
Since I was frustrated with my progress on Metro Hoops, I decided to try a simpler pattern, without any corner triangles to line up. I pulled some pretty lavender blues from my stash and started cutting pieces for the Urban Winter pattern, also by Sew Kind of Wonderful, using the Quick Curve Ruler. Oh.my.goodness. Did […]
Now that is what I am talking about. Thank you Liz A. I won't lie, I have been grievously challenged by this Metro Hoops pattern, using the Quick Curve Ruler. As much as I love the Quick Curve Ruler and the look of Sew Kind of Wonderful patterns, I was finding the square up […]
Hey everyone! Hope you all had a splendid weekend. Now that summer has officially arrived, I am going to be doing a sew along with two friends, using the Quick Curve Ruler designed by Jenny Pedigo of Sew Kind of Wonderful. I hope you will check out Jenny's blog, where she has tutorials on how […]
Finish something new, pick up something old, that should be my motto for this year. I was so happy to finish up The Madness (my black and cream half square triangle experiment), and decided to return to an unfinished project that has been neglected for some time. Remember a couple of years ago everyone […]
So, I think I have managed to acquire some good greens for my scrappy Christmas version of the American Patchwork and Quilting Sew Along. Now all I need is a copy of that darn magazine. My local Savemart, where I typically can pick up my American Patchwork and Quilting magazines has had no sign of […]
