Transparendo Sewalong - Week 11 from easypatchwork

Welcome and thank you for joining us for the eleventh week of the Transparendo Sewalong. I have to admit, I am wondering if anyone is actually reading these sewalong blogposts? Writing a few words in the comments section below can't be that hard can it? Although a lot of the information below is a repeat of the previous weeks, it takes a good three hours to write a blogpost with informative information, good graphics, consistent content and interesting prizes.

Are you sewing along with us? You still can jump in and make 12 blocks for the quilt top as ...

It's All Good! from From the Strawberry Patch...

I've been catching up on the two block-of-the-month programs that I signed up for at the LQS. Being gone for just a little over two weeks seems more like two months when it comes to catching up on what I missed while we were away! The Cream and Sugar class (left) required two more identical blocks for November and the Aspiring Stars class offered another block this month which I was able to

Tis The Season from Collector with a Needle

Hazel 6 months old

Seems the holidays have come earlier this year! We are busier than ever.

Maybe it's the new kitten we adopted? Or maybe, we have adapted the slower pace forced from Covid surges.

Either way - we are looking forward to new projects and new opportunities in 2022! Watch this space for more details.

I was pleased with Carol's mention of my social media posts in Issue 146 of Quiltmania. It was fun to see which thumbnail photos she selected. It was a complete surprise to me!

Return To Handwork from From the Strawberry Patch...

Like so many other quilters, this year has seen me returning to the soothing rhythm of handwork, specifically cross stitch. I never saw this coming, in all seriousness. Quiltkeemosabe gave me a small "kit" for Christmas and invited me to join her down the rabbit hole. With a bit of trepidation, (did I have time for ONE MORE THING?) and simply to be polite, I accepted her invitation and stepped,

TWO of my own finished and the Garden Terrorist from caledonia quilter

I set a few challenges for myself every year, in a feeble attempt to accomplish something. Otherwise, Facebook, you know? This year's UFO portion was to finish any three UFOs, and I completed that at the end of May. I already showed you the Vintage Tulips a couple months ago - that was #1.

#2 completion is the sampler quilt that the Binbrook guild ran as a block of the month from 2017 through 2018. I managed to finish it in only three years! Woo hoo!

The objective was to make each block twice, but reverse the colours on the ...

The Never Ending Sampler Panel 7 Band 2 from Kitty and Me Designs

If you're working on the Never Ending Sampler, this is Panel 7 Band 2:

Click here to download the PDF file.

As you can see, Band 2 will take a little bit longer to stitch than Band 1 so I'll give ya'll a week before releasing Band 3.

Happy Stitching!

A Little Mojo In Me & A New Favorite Song from Ravelly1

I haven’t been sewing anything lately so my quilting sisters kept encouraging me to try. I made up my mind to jump in the game with both feet. We are making samplers with different sized blocks or whatever works for the individual.

I'm doing a Wood Duck:

I need to add a little something but have a mind block for the moment.....LOL!

Now for the song (Eclectic Me)........I love some commercials and saw the one where the kid was under the table eating the whole dish of dessert. The song that went with it is from ...

Comfort and Blessing Quilt and 2020 Year End Posting from caledonia quilter

This was the last custom quilt of the year. I love working on sampler quilts. This is Comfort and Blessing by Piecing The Past Quilts.

Lots of s.i.d. with some common elements throughout the blocks.

It's a little easier to see the quilting on the back.

Here's a shot of the borders.

This is such a pretty pic of a sunset on December 10th.

Hmm. What else?... Christmas was quiet with just DH, Sadie and me. I had to cook a turkey, which I'd almost forgotten how to do. Normally 1-800-LUKE takes pity on us ...

Beyond the Stars quilting from Jean's Quilting Page

I've been working on quilting the Beyond the Stars Sampler 15 this week, along with doing some fabric sorting and other cleaning. The room the quilt frame is in can be a dumping ground for the leftovers from projects since I store my fabric in that room, too. When I'm working on a project, I save most scraps because you never know if you'll need every bit you have until you're finished. I've been going through those scraps and organizing them into usuable, unusable and won't use. Some pieces are big enough for a ...

Sunbonnet Sue Sampler 1 from Jean's Quilting Page

I designed this very basic sampler to using traditional blocks to teach quilters how to move on from Beginning Quilting and learn new techniques, including half square triangles and blocked sashing.

As you can tell from the fabrics, this is about 15 years old, give or take a year or two. The students also made Sunbonnet Sue using fusible webbing and then handstitched around the pieces.

This is probably the oldest one of my quilts that was not quilted until recently. After several years of using it, I made a different, brighter version of this quilt as I had grown ...
