Grandpa's Barn Quilted Wall Hanging in Lauren! from Busy Hands Quilts

Today I'm sharing a Grandpa's Barn quilt in the Baby size, but I'll call it the Wall Hanging size since it's not made with fabrics suited for a baby!

The Grandpa's Barn quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

I recently finished a batch of small quilts to be displayed in my local quilt shop, Tangled Threads. This is one of the quilts.

Those Pretty Fabrics!

My Grandpa's Barn quilt pattern was selected to highlight a really pretty fabric collection called Lauren. The collection includes mauves, greens, browns, and tans in ...

Dogwood Stars from Nestlings By Robin

Welcome Dogwood Stars

featuring Connecting Threads'

new fabric line.......

During testing I made my

own version using these

fabrics because the

color way spoke to me

but wasn't available yet.

I am a sucker for pretty

much any fabric with

script on it!!

This design has simple

piecing along with

fusible applique'.

The diamonds in the border

sections are all applique'

vs. piecing so cut and stick:)

These little tweezers make

placement of small pieces

so much easier.

I also use a teflon applique' pressing

sheet so that these bits

are all applied making

completed flowers BEFORE

A Little of This and a Little of That from The Cozy Quilter

The November Modern Block of the Month pattern was released this week at the Twilight Quilt Guild blog, so I dug out my fabrics and got sewing. The chevrons were paper pieced. The glasses fabric will appear in every block in my quilt along with other assorted dots and stripes in orange and navy. I was afraid I was going to run out of the gray hash dot background fabric but managed to find some at a localish store and had them ship it to me.

I added the final borders to my Summerhill quilt from Mary Elizabeth Kinch's ...

Framed - Island Batik Ambassador October Challenge from Creatin' in the Sticks

The August Challenge for the Island Batik Ambassadors is

Thread Painting with Aurifl

and

today I am excited to share

Framed.

As Island Batik Ambassadors,

we received Aurifil 50 weight cotton thread in our second ambassador box

to use in this month's challenge.

My decision on what to use was made easy because the threads I received matched

the fabrics from the Island Batik Spring 2020 collection,

William's Garden, designed by Kathy Engle.

These fabrics should be in your favorite local quilt shop now

and the 50 weight Aurifil threads are (left to right)

Christmas in July Wall Hanging {Finished Project} from Little Bunny Quilts

My Christmas in July Island Batik project is finished!

I added a penguin applique to the lower right corner of the top of the wall hanging for a little bit of fun. This is actually the same penguin that is available in our Seasonal Placemats and Seasonal Wall Hanging patterns; I simply scaled up the design.

For the quilting, I used white thread to quilt loops and snowflakes. I added eyes for the penguin with a fabric pen.

The binding is a navy mottled Island Batik basic that I had a half yard cut of in my stash. For the ...

Four Finishes and Another New Project from The Cozy Quilter

Christine finished the binding on the quilt we made for a family affected by the tragedy in Nova Scotia a few short weeks ago. This quilt is ready to be packed up and mailed to the Maritime Modern Quilt Guild for distribution. The binding is a medium blue fabric with tiny daisies on it that I found in my stash. Christine has a clothes line in her backyard that doubles as a place to hang quilts for photo ops. We hope that this quilt brings comfort and peace. There is love in every stitch.

The next two finishes are gifts ...

Divide and Conquer from Stitchin' Therapy

It was last year when I purchased several pre-printed panels. I made a small wall hanging as a daily reminder to me to have a grateful heart. It resides on the pantry door and I see it often during the day.

A couple of months later I put together another small wall hanging to use as a gift. I used an accent color to frame the main part, and added butterflies for an accent.
That left a larger section to divide up or use together. I knew I wanted to add a narrow frame around the next batch and blend ...

Catching up from Stitchin' Therapy

Time to catch up.....I know it has been a month since I posted and several emails from readers reminded me to wake up.

We had a very nice Spring and Sir Old man worked tirelessly in the yard completing projects from my list for him. We had 2 truck loads of mulch spread over the beds to give them a refresh. the crew also planted a couple of new trees we got for Earth Day from the power company and Clemson.
Sir Old Man finally added the birdhouse he built for the Bluebirds. And can you believe it is ...

A pair of wall hangings from Stitchin' Therapy

A pair of small wall hangings kept me busy over the weekend.
The first was simple and plain until I added the trio of butterflies. I found a few of these ready to fuse in place. Some matching thread to zig zag down the edges and I was happy with the results. With the warmer days right now, I long for spring.
The binding on this one was leftovers I found in the scrap bin. Both were the flange binding but I simply joined them and pretended it was the same all around.

I also took a close up photo ...

Valentine's Day from Stitchin' Therapy

Dropping in to say Happy Valentine's Day! Sharing a favorite wall hanging from 2013.

And to let everyone know I am still hanging on. It has just been a painful month. Some days I have trouble holding a coffee cup. When the weather goes thru such drastic changes in 7 days, it plays havoc on my body. It was 70 degrees on a Tuesday, On Thursday the rains began and stayed until we had over 6 inches of of runoff forming rivers in the yard and streets...etc. Winds and tornadoes happened on Friday.

3D - Float Your Hills and Valleys from Creatin' in the Sticks

The December Challenge for the Island Batik Ambassadors is

3D

and

today I'm excited to share

Float Your Hills and Valleys.

As an Island Batik Ambassador for 2019

optical illusions,

Faceted Churn Dash {Finished Wall Hanging} from Little Bunny Quilts

If you are in our Honey, Bunny, and Doll FB group, you've seen all of the progress on this wall hanging!

I hosted a "casual QAL" for our Faceted pattern collection on FB this fall -- it was a lot of fun to do something from an already written pattern rather than a brand new pattern and it's something I will do again!

Returning back to the beginning, I cut the majority of the scraps used in this project using my Accuquilt cutter.

A lot of half-square triangles later, I incrementally made the pieces and parts for this quilt ...

Crafters' Retreat from The Cozy Quilter

Christine and I spent the weekend at Camp...we each brought numerous projects with us and I am happy to report that progress was made on everything!

My ironing board is almost due for a new cover---ignoring that, you can see I worked on my flannel vortex baby quilt--my third flannel vortex quilt (I have also done one out of cotton quilting scraps). This quilt involves lots of sewing, pressing, trimming, and then more sewing, pressing and trimming. I went home with some larger chunks, ready to be made into a quilt top.

I started a new Christmas quilt--no pattern ...

Slow Stitching Report (and a couple of pouches) from The Cozy Quilter

I have been working on cleaning up my sewing room this week. It is looking much better but there is still work to do. I found this Christmas tree block in a pile and decided to make it into a little wall hanging. I quilted it with wavy lines using my walking foot and some bright green thread, which doesn't really show up very well in this picture! I have a bin with leftover binding in it and found this red and white striped binding. I added it to the quilted block and will hand stitch it down this ...
