I realized last week when I went to change out my red white and blue July decor for something more appropriate for late summer, that I am sorely lacking in table runners for this time of the year. For August and September I envision lots of yellow and gold; anything with sunflowers. I had started […]
I am really enjoying this sweet little table topper I made last year. It is "Endearments", a pattern by Betsy Chutchian. The fabrics I used are hers as well. I love piecing small block units and this pattern definitely fit the bill. Those half square triangles finish at 1 inch! It is placed on my […]
I thought I would share a quick look at my July table runner. This one was finished in 2018, but quilted fairly recently. I used fabrics from my stash, and a Miss Rosie's Quilt Company pattern called "Recess", which I adapted to be rectangular in shape. It measures 19" x 41". Here is a closer […]
I finally got myself set up and ready to sew here at our vacation condo. I had a bit of a set back because I forgot to bring my power cord. How dumb, right? I remembered the foot pedal, but how I left behind the cord is a mystery. A local shop had a cord […]
I got this little table runner back from the quilter last week. I have the binding attached but not sewn down. The quilt is one twelve inch Ohio Star block, four six inch Ohio Star blocks and twelve flying geese. I had some Fig Tree reds in a bin, which is what I used. Easy […]
I've spent several days comparing two pineapple rulers. One, the Creative Grids Pineapple Ruler, I have used before and really liked. It recently came to my attention that Bloc Loc makes a Pineapple Ruler as well, and on impulse I ordered one. I'll give you my opinions in this post, which is very photo heavy. […]
I posted about the Fatquarter Shop Threadology Sew Along here a week or so ago. Check out that post for all the details regarding the sew along. Every time a goal is reached, a new setting alternative is released. I wasn't super interested in making the entire quilt, but when I saw this table runner […]
This was just too pretty not to share. I had this little Bear Paw table topper quilted nearly a year ago, and just had not gotten around to binding it. Valentine's Day is fast approaching and I thought it would be just the thing for a pretty tablescape. My problem was the red/pink is kind […]
As you know, if you regularly read this blog, I have been itching to start a new project. Now that I have nearly finished a long running string quilt project, I am ready to move on. I have something all cut out and ready to dive into, but as often happens, I got sidetracked. It […]
I have been so determined to crank out some new Christmas table runners this year. I had an idea that it might be nice to use some French General red fabrics and create something. I haven't ever done a full sized Drunkard's Path quilt, but love curved piecing. I made a couple dozen Drunkard's Path […]
