Quilts
With the completion of my Steampunk Quilt top, I was definitely in a quilting groove. For my next project, decided to go back to something simple, with lots of straight lines, and absolutely NO embroidery. I made myself a black and white version of the Perfect Ten quilt from Swirly Girls Design. It started with…
I consider myself a fairly new quilter, having only been doing it for a couple of years. However, I also seem to be fairly prolific in the number of quilts that I have made in that time. At my house, I currently display quilts on an old fashioned quilt rack. Needless to say, it’s getting…
It took all weekend, but I managed to finish up my Steampunk themed crazy quilt top. It uses lots of great fabrics, including the Victorian Dream line from Roberta Morales for Quilting Treasures, some beautiful hand-dyed fabrics from Just Plain Laine, and of course, lots of scrap and stash fabrics. I am in love with…
Yesterday was an amazing mail day! My Spooktacular fat quarter bundle came in the mail from Fat Quarter Shop! It’s nine super great Halloween themed fat quarters. I’m thinking I want to make a quilt of some sort, but I’m still not sure what I want the quilt to look like. There are some great…
I’ve been putting in a lot of time on my Steampunk themed crazy quilt, and I feel like I finally have something to show for it. The quilt top is no where near complete, but it is coming along. I even have an entire row sewn together. I know it doesn’t look like much but…
I’m slowly but surely making progress on my latest crazy quilt. These are usually quick sews for me because it’s simple not to match up corners. However, thanks to some inspiration from Gloria McKinnon and her book Glorious Embellishing, I’m taking my time with this quilt top and adding some real crazy quilt detailing. In…
As I was looking for photos of my first crazy quilt the other day, I realized that I never actually did a post sharing the finished quilt with you. I finished this quilt a year ago and sent it out to Cara of Cara Quilts to be quilted. She did a fabulous job. Each of…
First a big congratulations to Kayla! She was the big winner in our Rafflecopter giveaway of Gloria McKinnon’s book Glorious Embellishments. If you didn’t win, but would still like a copy for yourself, order one online from Amazon or stop by your local fabric and crafting store to see if they have it in stock.…
I’ve got a couple things to share with you today. First, I’ve made quite a bit of progress on my QAL quilt this week. I’ve got all the fabric for the front cut out, and I pieced together all 12 of the blocks with the large solid center. I really think I’m going to love…
I have started two new sew along projects this week. I’m so excited! I’m hoping the projects will kick me into gear and get me sewing even with all the late sunshine outside. The first is the Impromptu Quilt Along at Monkey Do. The quilt is a pattern by Rachel Griffith Design that will finish…
