All it took was Eva going back to school and some new Halloween patterns and I am back in the sewing room again. The little pattern above is by Margot Languedoc, whose company is The Pattern Basket. She is known for her wonderful designs that involve blocks that depict something-strawberries, acorns, pumpkins. If you want […]
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 […]
