Stars of Peace QAL: Introduction from Nestlings By Robin

As some of you may know,
I come from a military family.

After joining the Coast Guard myself,

I met and married my husband then

followed him in his 30 years of service.

We were fortunate to be able to see

a great deal of the country through

our moves, learning the history and culture

of many regions.

It was an honor to be a part of the

Coast Guard and its missions.

As a quilter, I am involved with the

Quilts of Valor Foundation.

The foundation's mission is an

important message to those that

serve our country, you ...

Friday check in: catching up with a finish, BOM, SAHRR and more from With Strings Attached

On the home front: Thirty birthday cards arrived this week. THANK YOU!

The dishwasher repairman came late Monday. He pried off the lower panel, plugged a gizmo into a gauge or something, and got a readout that said the dishwasher had run 1,586 cycles since installation. That was interesting. He then replaced a water intake valve. Here's the important part. He said he guessed that I used the economy cycle (51 min.). He was right. It turns out that's wrong and I should use the normal cycle. That pushes more water through the valve and keeps it ...

What is the Difference Between a QAL and a BOM in the Quilting World?

If you’ve been part of the quilting community for any length of time, you’ve probably come across the terms QAL and BOM. While these acronyms are common in the quilting world, they represent two distinct ways of tackling a quilt project. Both are popular, and both create a sense of community, but they cater to different types of quilters and schedules. One of the sales professionals ay Moda always says we need more Bom’s. With over 50 creative designers creating projects I spent ...

Natalie Doan of Missouri Star was the guest speaker at the guild meeting Wednesday. I didn't get any good pictures! It was fun to hear her side of the family business.

This is the final month for the guild round robin. I got right to work and added borders to CB's quilt. I can't show you the entire flimsy until next month's reveal, but you can see one of the Tula Pink owls that AK added.

We got the pattern for block ...

Crimson Tweed Update from Alamosa Quilter

On Thursday of last week I put the final seed stitch, which is how I hand quilted this, in my version of Crimson Tweed.

I've been working on this for quite some time! I started quilting it in October of 2022. I worked on it most Thursday afternoons at my shop during our Hand Sewing Group. Sometimes store sewing took precedent and I had to get it done instead of working on my Crimson Tweed, but I tried to not let store sewing get in the way very often.

The last step is binding, a label and a hanging ...

Collecting Fabric Today from Quilting My Way

This morning was Quilting at moms. I had a few places to stop along the way. I canceled one for Monday. Got to moms by 9:30 am. We visited before everyone started coming in.

I worked on moms BOM.

I finished the leaves - or thought I did.

The leaves in the center was done wrong. Took them out and started all over. I just need the circles on top of the leaves on top. Will finish them later.

Left at noon to drop off backing and batting. Next stop ( after Dutch Brothers) was to Debbie's. Picked her up ...

July's Block! from Quilt Doodle Doodles

It's so hard to believe that it's July! It has been a dryer week so far and I'm so happy to see the sunshine. Hubby spent the weekend fortifying our garden fence while I replanted green beans. I think it's the bunnies that are enjoying the fresh vegetable plants. I've never in my life bought green bean plants, I've always planted by seed, but I am determined to have fresh green beans this year. I've given up on kohlrabi... this year and I'm starting to question how much I'll really get ...

Having successfully navigated twice-a-week, post fracture, out patient physical therapy sessions I feel ready to tackle the world again!

Hello Friday - And Quilting At Mom's from Quilting My Way

This morning, I was up at 6:30 am because of all the sun coming through the windows. I couldn't go back to sleep even if I tried.

So, I played on my game and then got ready to go to moms. I stopped at Safeway to pick up a couple things. Once that was done, I arrived at moms with a few people behind me. There were 7 of us today.

I pulled out the pattern that I needed for the first block.

Sorry, but this is a copy right issue, so I'm not show the whole ...

Birds! from twiddletails

It seems to be a bird-y kind of year so far. This is a total coincidence but I love them!

"Chirp!" by Sue Spargo is a project I started with two friends. We're making one block a month.

My quilt guild holds a "block lotto" every so often. Everyone brings one or more blocks of a given design. Afterward, there is a drawing where someone wins all the blocks. Unfortunately, I was at a retreat last time, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do with these cuties.

You can find the pattern over here and ...

Spending The Morning At Moms from Quilting My Way

This morning, I didn't sleep well. So, I was up and ready to go. I got a few things done before heading to moms. It's quilting Friday. Mom's Friday group is an applique group. Normally I don't like taking a lot over and having to bring it back so I decided I would work on one of mom's Block of the Month quilts.

Mom ordered this in 2018. She falls in love with some of Debbie M's quilt designs and orders the block of the month. She ordered her most recent one. So, we ...

March's Blocks! from Quilt Doodle Doodles

Happy March! The temperature has been crazy here. We went from a 60-degree day down to below zero in a 24-hour period! As I write this, we are slowly warming up again giving us hope that spring is right around the corner. I've bought my garden seeds and I plan on getting them started indoors. I'm on the hunt for my grow lights, they are somewhere in the house... hmmmm where did I put them! I have a garden I would like to totally dig up and redo, I've been kicking around what I would like to ...
