Fiery Labyrinth Ready for the Quilter
I’m always amazed how much faster quilt backs go together than the front, even when you have a decorative back. The back on the White Labyrinth quilt was supposed to have a 20-inch inset block in it, using the fabrics from the front. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough strips in lengths I needed, so my…
Read MoreZen Chic Quilt Top
I have finished the quilt top for my Zen Chic White Labyrinth quilt, which I have dubbed my Fiery Labyrinth Quilt. It’s not near as perfect as I would have liked. Somehow my blocks ended up being much more rectangular than square, which would have been fine if they were all going the same way. …
Read MoreZen Chic White Labyrinth Quilt
I’ve recently started another quilting project. I’m making the White Labyrinth quilt by Zen Chic. As I mentioned in my post about my favorite quilt designers, I’ve been looking forward to making this quilt for a while, and I’m really glad to be getting the chance to do it. My Fabrics The materials list actually…
Read MoreYellow Spiral Done
The yellow spiral quilt is officially finished! I completed the top a couple weeks ago, but couldn’t decide what to do about the binding. With Friday having been the Friday Night Sew-In, I wanted to get it out of the unfinished pile. After all, I’ve already started another quilt you’ll hear about in a few…
Read MoreFriday Night Sew In
I’m doing Friday Night Sew-In tonight! It’s my very first one. Tonight I’m planning to add the binding to my yellow spiral quilt and hopefully get a little more done on my newest quilt project, or maybe make a zip pouch that goes with my Weekender bag.

In my last post I mentioned that I was making a Weekender Bag. I’m happy to say that it’s done! The project uses a ton of fabric and the pattern was a bit difficult for me to follow, but I’m blaming that on the fact that I’ve never had to read a pattern before. After…
Read MoreA Long Weekend
The quilting is finished on my yellow spiral quilt. Now all that’s left to do is the binding. I still haven’t decided how I want to bind it. I’m either going to do a basic 1/4-inch binding in the yellow, or I’m going to do a wider binding (1-2 inches) in the multicolored pattern I…
Read MoreBasting & Quilting
I’m in the process of finishing up the Yellow Spiral Quilt. I got the back on the quilt (with it’s pinwheel) finished on Friday. It was a quick and simple project, being mostly the solid yellow. I got my batting picked up over the weekend, so I was able to get everything pin basted- mostly.…
Read MoreYellow Spiral Quilt Finished
I’ve decided that the official title of the HST quilt I made using the yellow broadcloth and A Stitch in Color charm pack will be called the yellow spiral quilt. And guess what?! The top is done! Of course, that’s no thanks to my husband who called when I was in the middle of the…
