What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

 I'm getting closer to finishing up my potato chip quilt.

I got it quilted this weekend. Next step is binding. I have some scrappy binding and I plan to use it for this scrappy quilt.

Check out the backing fabric I used. I found this in my stash.

 How are doing with your Potato Chip variation 2 blocks? I have four blocks completed and the other eight are in progress.

 This is third quilt I quilted with my new Q20 sit-down machine. It is a digital sample (that is, the quilt is printed on the fabric, not pieced) that I got in my shop back in 2016 for some fabric I had in the shop at that time.

I quilted it in what would be the ditch if it was pieced using a straight ruler. Then I added a bunch of free motion quilting to fill in.

Normally I wouldn't add this much quilting to a charity quilt but I was really having fun playing with my new machine ...

 This is the second quilt I quilted with my new Q20 sit-down machine. I used a ruler to quilt wavy lines across it.

Yes, I probably could have done this design without a ruler, but I wanted to experiment with using a ruler on my new machine. Worked great! And the best part is that I can use my regular Bernina ruler foot (#72 foot) on my Q20.

For the back I found this fun print in my stash that complemented my color scheme on the front.

This quilt will be donated to my local hospital for the oncology department ...

 I have no idea when I pieced this top but it was well before I opened my shop in 2016.

For the backing I found this very old print in my stash. I must have really loved it when I bought it because I have 5 or so yards of it! 

This quilt will be given to my local guild to donate to a local charity. It finished at about 40" by 50".

 I have been bonding with my new Q20 machine.

I have quilted two charity quilts already with her but don't have pictures of those yet for you. Next time! The first one I just did a quick all-over meander to get used to the machine. The second one I quilted with a ruler that I have had for a while. I'll give details on that when I show you the finished quilt.

Right now I am working on a third charity quilt with her. I'm getting fancy with this one. It is an old digital sample that ...

With the Safelight Project underway (click on that link to see how you can help and prizes you might win), I wanted to make a few case sets from some pretty fabric. This is such a quick project, and uses up leftover fabrics as well as batting bits. I guess I am still in a blue and yellow mode, LOL! This blue print is lovely and paired nicely with a tone on tone yellow for accent. I did the two tissue covers in a jiffy, then started on the cases.

It was easy to do the cosmetic case and sunglasses ...

Sorting through my projects and I've decided I want to get En Provence finished before Bonnies next mystery quilt starts.  The last two rows down each side and the border blocks are all that is left to get the top finished. So for my One Month Goal I'm going to get En Provence pieced, quilted and bound. The cream and pink triangle blocks were my first attempt at these type of triangles and
