Super Bowl Sunday! from caledonia quilter

First - the January completion. This is the top I pieced in the fall up in Tobermory. It's ready for a label & the washing machine.

I'm very happy with the way it turned out. And I used a new-to-me panto which I'm also pretty happy with.

This month I'm working on this. There will actually be TWO of these. It's a leader/ender project that I've been poking away at for a couple of years, and I finally finished all the blocks. 98 of them. Those half-square centers are cutoffs from a baby quilt I ...

2024 In Pictures... from caledonia quilter

The apron I made for my egg-providing neighbour. I know she appreciates these...I popped over there one day for a visit and she was wearing a tattered apron that I'd made her a couple years earlier. Ever since then I make her a new one every couple years.

I'm lucky enough to have friends who I meet at Mapleview Mall for an irregular dinner date, maybe a half dozen times a year? We met through our work at Royal Bank ...so many years ago I don't even want to think about it. Somehow these new shoes ...

Vintage Quilt Finished from caledonia quilter

This is a pretty top that I bought at a local antique/junk barn around the corner from me. I paid $25 for it two years ago.

I need another quilt like a hole in the head, but I just could not walk away from the poor thing. It's partially hand pieced and partially machine pieced. To respect the era I used 100% cotton batting instead of my usual 80/20 blend. That makes it a little more "flat".

You'll note the Mennonite Mistake (also known as a Humility Block) in the bottom right hand corner - that one ...

Newsy 2021 Post from caledonia quilter

Santa brought me a new tablet so I've been having my perpetual challenge with technology, trying to transfer over all my "stuff". Today's project is DROPBOX, setting up the auto transfer of all photos from the tablet to the cloud, and from there I transfer them to the desktop. The desktop has folders for each month of the year, and folders for my personal quilts, trips, special events, guilds, etc. This kind of filing system is the easiest way for me to locate items, although I must admit I've had the occasional "oopsy" where I've moved ...
