Over the years, I have made several quilts using the flying geese unit. I think the obsession started in Nancy Crow’s Workshop called Sets and Variables.
We were to select a motif to work with. I wanted to work with the flying geese unit. I started three compositions. None of which were the assignment–this was a problem. Still my love of triangles persisted.
The neutral triangle units in the upper right photo eventually became Birch Woods Glimmer.

read moreThere was a lot packed into a single day yesterday, and so I'll just get right to it. First, we saw every blooming thing along the Fanno Creek Trail yesterday morning. There is lots more to come, and so we'll walk there again next week. The lupine is ready to bloom, and we don't want to miss it. As for the blooming things along the trail yesterday, I took a lot of pictures. I don't know some of these, and so I'll just let you look.

I've worked on this piece and another one for several days. I had built the canvases quite some time ago and set them aside. At the time I had another, more pressing project. Oddly, I can't think of what that was.
Nevertheless, I discovered the stack of canvas pieces and decided to load them on the long-arm before something else jumped in front of me. I have a few more canvases in the stack, but I want to see what the green background looks like.
You all remember that I had a dachshund named Speck. We got him when Chad was maybe 10 or 11 years old. Speck died in 2017 and he was about 16 years old. Then when their Husky showed up at Walmart and Chad brought him home for the weekend because Animal Control wasn’t open til...

For my Button club project this month I went for up sized pieced block using a charm pack, so fun to do!
The Fat Quarter Shop button box this month has a theme of 'SWEET'. I decided that I had to use my friend Heidi's Shortcake fabric with darling flowers, flower baskets and jam jars!

There was a time not so long ago when no one knew what a Quillow was. It was like some made up world in the quilting world that only the most experienced had heard of. Quillows are making a comeback and I can tell you why, Minimalists! Having a blanket thrown across your couch or bed is no longer an option for many of these frugal minimalists who like clean lines and smooth surfaces. This tutorial shows you how to turn a quilt into a quillow. That means you can go back to an existing quilt and turn it into ...

For some reason, I've fallen hard for the simple gingham baby quilts I've seen lately and in the middle of binding one quilt and piecing another, I decided I needed to make one NOW. I wanted to use this fabric: and tried several other fabrics that I thought would coordinate. I tried every blue under the sun, but nothing really worked, so I settled on this: Then, in the middle of another

read moreThis is officially the last Saturday in May and for orange at the rainbow scrap challenge. I am not really finished with the color yet. I haven't even started orange words for my quilt. But I did get the "made" fabric ready for the end of the rainbow quilt. Each month I make 6 blocks. I only have one more color and then all the pieces will be ready to assemble.
