Join Busy Hands Quilts on Facebook | Belle Quilts by Timeless Quilts from Busy Hands Quilts

Quilting has always been a passion of mine. The fact that I get to work with fabrics and create designs from the comfort of my home and be able to distribute them to fellow quilters like you has been an incredible opportunity. A real dream come true! I especially love the community that my job has helped to create.

You may have heard that Busy Hands Quilts is also on Facebook. We have created a Busy Hands Quilts Facebook Group where people are encouraged to share their finished quilts in my pattern and even its story. I am amazed and ...

In the Rear View Mirror - 2023 from DaySpringQuilter

I confess to always being a bit anxious on December 31st. For as long as I can remember in my adult years it has always meant fiscal year end deadlines and making sure all those journal entries and the final bank deposit for the year are done and posted before the GL does its thing and empties out all the net income to retained earnings. For all those non-accounting friends, welcome to the inside of my compartmentalized brain.

I've always been a better performer if there is a deadline looming. In fact, when I was doing my BCom degree ...

Charming from Becca's Crazy Projects

I managed to get the charming quilt quilted and trimmed.

All that's left is the binding. That may have to wait until next year. I'm so happy I used the fan quilting motif. I think it is perfect for this quilt.

Thank you for a wonderful year. See you in 2024!

Charming from Becca's Crazy Projects

I added the borders to my charming quilt.

I loaded it on the frame.

And started quilting. I decided to use a traditional pattern. This is Kristin's Easy Baptist Fan from Urban Elementz. I didn't have a fan design I really like in my collection so I bought this one for this quilt. I'm sure I will use it again so it was a worthy investment.

Happy Solstice from Becca's Crazy Projects

I've been working on so many things but don't have much of any one thing to share. I've been making more small scrappy bricks blocks. I just started on a stack using this fun flower print as the center square.

I've finished my charming quilt and have cut the binding and borders to finish it.

This set of scrappy bricks is ready to be sewn into rows.

Red and White from Becca's Crazy Projects

I pieced this delightful little quilt using a free block pattern from Gnome Angel. If you don't follow Angie, or aren't on her email list, you should check it out. Free Block Friday is a wonderful thing.

I made my blocks at a different size using my Accuquilt Go! Such a wonderful little block. I'm glad I tried this out. I used Electric Quilt to come up with the layout and I'm pleased with the result. Sashing for the win!

Charming from Becca's Crazy Projects

I've finished the majority of the piecing and this is where I'm at. No rhyme or reason with this one. The goal was to sew two bricks together and repeat until I had my units. Then, sew those into rows. Then join the rows. I like the chaos in this one. I will add a border and it will be ready for quilting.

Recipe: cut 504 bricks that measure 2.5" by 4.5" (Accuquilt has a die for that). Sew two together. Repeat until you have 252 units. Sew 14 units together in a row. Make 18 ...

Charming from Becca's Crazy Projects

A while back I cut a bunch of 5" charm squares in half. I've been slowly sewing the resulting bricks into larger units and trimming down to 4.5" squares. This is the result of some of that work. I've since started sewing them into rows but don't have a photo to share of that step, yet. This would have been quicker if I had used my Accuquilt. Ah, well, I'm making slow progress and there isn't anything wrong with that.

Charity Quilting from Becca's Crazy Projects

On Saturday I dropped off fifteen quilts at Annapolis Quilts for Kids. That's the lost batch I will drop off this year. I will get a couple more quilted before the end of the year. This is my most productive year yet with well over 100 quilts quilted for Annapolis Quilts for Kids. I don't think I will reach 150 but it will be close.

1st Sunday of Advent Reflection from Quilt in Piece

As we gather together in this season of Advent, we dive into the words of Jesus from the Gospel of Mark, chapter 13, verses 24-37. 24 “At that time, after the anguish of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will give no light, 25 the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.[a] 26 Then everyone will see the Son of Man[b] coming on the clouds with great power and glory.[c] 27 And he will send out his angels to gather his chosen ones from all over ...
