What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Welcome to week 10 of this year's Hands2Help Comfort Quilt Challenge!  It's hard to believe, but we are almost at the end of the Challenge - next Sunday will be the beginning of the week to link your finished quilts!  But we have one more week to celebrate, and a great guest blogger to get us through it!

Moira, who blogs over at The Quilted Snail, has a wonderful blog.  She participates in a lot of blog hops, so there are always interesting things to see and connections with other great quilters, too!  And just this month ...

Welcome to week eight of this year's Hands2Help Comfort Quilt Challenge!  I've got lots of info to pass on in this post, so be sure to read all the way through, ok?  First off, it's time for another check-in, where you can show off your progress, and cheer others on.  There'll be a link-up for that at the end of this post.  

We've also got an other great guest blogger today - Leanne of Devoted Quilter.  Leanne's been a long-time supporter of the Challenge, and always has something interesting to share.  She's ...

Welcome to week seven of this year's Hands2Help Comfort Quilt Challenge, and the beginning of the second half of the Challenge!  That's right, we're halfway through! It's hard to believe the time has gone by so quickly.  I hope you are all enjoying the great guest bloggers we've already had, and prepared for even more to come!

Today we are welcoming Kathleen of Kathleen McMusing.  Kathleen always has something interesting going on, like her Fab Farm SAL that is happening right now, or her Tips and Tutorials on the 22nd, which is a ...

Five weeks in!  Can you believe it?  Seems like we just started this year's Challenge, but things are rolling right along.  We've got several things going on this week, but let's start with the most important one first. 

Today we are welcoming another guest blogger - Nann from With Strings Attached!  Spend just a few minutes on her blog and you'll realize she's a prolific quilter - but she's also a librarian.  Librarians have a special place in my heart, especially these days.  Some of my best times as a child were spent in ...

Hello and welcome back to the fourth week of the Hands2Help Comfort Quilt Challenge!  I hope you're having fun working on your quilts - our first check-in will be next Sunday, and you can show off your progress then.  More about that later!

Today we are welcoming guest blogger Kat (yes, another Kat!) who blogs over at Diary of a Madkapquilter.  She does her creating in British Columbia, Canada, and has a fun and chatty blog - I think you'll enjoy reading it!  Take a look at this beautiful quilt she made...

Welcome back for another week of fun as we continue this year's Hands2Help Comfort Quilt Challenge!  I'm so excited to report that we now have 141 people signed up for the Challenge - isn't that amazing? I just love how quilters always step up when the call goes out for comfort quilts.  It's the best thing about our community!

This week we are starting our guest blog posts, and it will be a little different this year.  In the past, the guest bloggers have always posted right here on my blog, but this year I ...

Hello, and thank you for stopping by.  Today we are in the thick of summer here in Tucson, and it is getting hot.  One of my favorite things to do on a Saturday morning, other than quilting, is to go to a farmers market.  I secretly would love to have my own booth.  I toy around with this idea all the time.  Actually, I have a small stock pile of things I could sell and things for displaying items.  That is why I think this is the perfect topic for today: How to Prepare for Craft Fairs and Farmers Markets ...

My name ...

May!  The lovely month of May has arrived, with beautiful springtime weather to enjoy and the end of this year's Hands2Help Challenge in sight.  Today we have another guest blogger joining us - Anja from Nova Scotia, who blogs at Anja Quilts!  Anja is always creating something beautiful, it seems, and she has a wonderful tutorial for us today.  So now I will turn the blog over to her!

It's hard to believe, but this Sunday marks the halfway point of this year's Hands2Help Comfort Quilt Challenge!  I've already seen so many beautiful quilts heading their way to bring comfort and cheer - thank you all for your enthusiastic participation!

And today, we have a new guest blogger - actually, this is her first experience with blogging, as she doesn't have one of her own.  Pam M. lives and creates in a fabulous little studio in DeLand, Florida.  Take a virtual tour through her studio as she shares about it, and then give her a ...

Sunday means another Hands2Help post, and this week we are welcoming guest blogger Joy from The Joyful Quilter!  Joy is definitely joyful, and her delightful blog is great evidence of that.  Stop by and visit her - I guarantee you won't be disappointed.  Today she will be sharing a bit of her love for charity quilting and how she worked to meet needs that came to her attention, so I will turn the blog over to her now!

Challenges are always more fun with company, and my friend Penny joined me in playing with line. She has been working with collage and gel printing recently, and her responses to the prompts reflect that. I asked her to be … Continue reading →
