Quilts
I’m so happy! I got the pieced backing done for my Communique quilt. That means that I got to put away all of my left over fabric from that color palette and work with something completely different for a while. Finished Flimsys: That gives me a total of 4 quilts with tops and backs ready…
I’m super excited to share with you the backing I came up with for my Impromptu quilt. I originally started with a lovely orange batik in 102″ backing width. But after I brought it home, I remembered that I still had a bit of my painter’s canvas fabric I’d used as backing and a charm…
Finished Quilt Tops: I’ve got a brand new finished quilt top to add to the three that were already done. The Communique Quilt top is finally finished. I’m 20 thousand kinds of happy about how it came out. You can visit Monday’s post for more photos of the finish. And, it’s a long way from…
I’d love to say that my favorite quilt is always the one that I am working on, but I have somehow grown very attached to my Steampunk Crazy Quilt. For those of you that are regulars on the blog, I’m sure that you’re tired of hearing about it, but I really do love it. Tell…
After a previous “finish” of a throw sized quilt from my Communique fabric panel, I decided that the quilt looked so nice that I really wanted a larger quilt that I could use on the bed. After all, I have a dozen or so throw sized quilts already. Why not make something that I could…
It feels like it’s taking forever, but I’m slowly making progress expanding my throw sized Communique quilt top into a king sized version that I can really get some use out of. The original quilt was designed to be 54×72″, while the new version will measure 102×96″. I have already completed the top and bottom…
Finished Quilt Tops: No new finished quilt top this week. That might actually be a good thing, as 3 is plenty to have waiting on quilting. Quilt Tops in Progress: I did start making process on enlarging the communique quilt, the top section above the current quilt is complete now, and I’ve started on the…
I am lucky to have several wonderful quilting and fabric stores in my area. They all provide fabrics and notions that appeal to different clientele, meaning that my area is rich in ideas and inspiration for quilting. The store that I’m featuring today is the largest fabric store I’ve ever seen. Let’s Sew is located…
The Mod Crazy Quilt is finally done! It’s been on hold for a few months while I was trying to decide what to do for the backing. My original plan was a minky in robin’s egg blue. It was lovely, but I had horrible trouble trying to work with the minky on my home machine. …
I got one complete finish this week, even if it is small. I made pillow covers for mom’s chair cushions that match the quilt I made her for Mother’s Day. Finished Quilt Tops: As I mentioned last week, I now have 4 finished quilt tops. Interestingly enough…. they are not the same quilt tops. The…
