What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

 It has been a long time since I shared some of the photos I receive from quilters who made quilts using my patterns. I love seeing them and I thought you might too.

First up is this colorful Wiggle Time quilt.  Sadly I can't find who sent this one to me.  But I always love when quilter use a print background on this pattern.

Sue just recently sent this picture to me.  She has made quite a few quilts from my Wiggle Time pattern.  I love it in blue and I also love the diagonal grid quilting she did ...

 One of the first things I did when I decided to make Compassion Quilts for my local hospital, is make up some kits out of my stash so other local quilters can grab if they want to help me out.

One kit I made a lot of (because it is made with cuts easily found in a stash) is my Wiggle Time pattern.  Well, they have been in high demand and today I have a bunch of completed Wiggle Time quilts to share.

I was given some coffee themed fat quarters, so I pulled a nice pumpkin colored background to ...

 I was given a few coordinating fat quarters (for some compassion quilts) and I decided to grab my go-to pattern to use them.

 Okay, maybe this won't be the last Wiggle Time quilt I make - but it will be the last one for quite a while.

I received an email from one of my readers asking me if they had to use one fabric for each of the Wiggles...or if they could be mixed up.  I told her that of course you could mix them up and went to go send her a photo of an example.  It was then I realized I hadn't made one myself in the past.

I knew I had to get busy on that!

I ...

 A few weeks ago, I mentioned one of my quilt buyers wanted some small sized quilts to gift and to donate.  Since then, I have been going through my stash and pulling some fabrics for inspiration.

As I went through my stash, I was finding a lot of kid friendly fat quarters so the first pattern that came to mind was my Wiggle Time pattern.  It needs 5 fat quarters and about 2 yards of a background fabric.

Here is the first quilt I made and finished.  

I loved this colorful balloon fabric.  

It was easy to add some bright ...

 One of my frequent quilt buyers contacted me and asked me if I could make some smaller quilts that she could buy to donate.  In this situation, I always try to keep the costs down as much as I can and use simple and quick patterns.

I often get photos of the lovely quilts other quilters make using my patterns.  I realized I haven't shared them on my blog since last summer.  Thought I would share a few today. 

 I was all prepared to share my Bee Grateful quilt from a shortcut pattern through the Fat Quarter Shop.  But the fabric for the kit still has not arrive for them to sell so they are holding off on sharing all the quilts.  So I thought I would take this opportunity to share a few photos sent to me by quilters who have used my patterns.

 Wednesday morning I shared how my recent fabric pull came together.

If you missed it, here are the fabrics that I put together from my stash.  They were the perfect size cuts for me to make my Wiggle Time quilt pattern.

 I know that not every quilter works this way, but almost all of my quilts start with the fabric.  I end up being inspired by a piece of fabric and it just takes off from there.  Sometime the fabrics come together quickly - other times it might take many months.

 Pretty regularly, I receive photos of quilts made using one of my patterns.  I always love to see them and thought I would share a few of them with you today.

Here is a wonderful quilt made from my Wiggle Time pattern.  I love the solid color and the quilting she added that "wiggles" across the quilt..  This lap size pattern takes five fat quarters and some background fabric - you probably have the fabric in your stash!

This quilt was made using my All That Jazz pattern.  After seeing this one, I remembered I have a tub full of neutrals ...

 I am always kind of sad when the end of October gets here.  That means that there are no more Rainbow Scrap Challenge colors until January.  I know many use the last two months of the year to finish their quilts, but I rarely follow that schedule and never seem to have enough blocks to finish up into quilts.  What else can I do except start some new projects!
