Jocelyn's Tops from Kat & Cat Quilts

Happy Friday, quilters! This weekend I have several quilt tops that were sent in by Jocelyn and finished by a few different quilters. Pam did the quilting on this absolutely massive card trick quilt. This photo really doesn't do justice to the size of it!

Next Dee quilted this very pretty, soft, flowery pink quilt. It's a little bit hard to make out the quilting pattern, but maybe you can see it in the photo below. It's a large flower motif with leaves.

The rest of these were quilted by Linda, starting with the small masculine quilt ...

I wanted some different cookies this week so I got out my fave cookbook

recipes from Tampa

delish, chewy peach/mango

I changed things, I had peach/mango jam so I used that, I subbed 1/2Cup of almond flour and used one cup all purpose, I added some orange extract and some orange zest I keep in the freezer, a bit more butter because cookies generally come out hard in this ...

All Tied Up 7, 8 from Virtual Quilter

Very interesting design … impressive, even if I do say so myself.

I like the second one too, but my favourite for today is the first one.

The original Sunflower Girl Quilt! from Angel Scraps Quilting

I have always loved sunflowers and had planned to make myself a sunflower quilt for a long time. Finally got around to it after my regular couch quilt has become almost worn out. I still love that quilt seen HERE. I replaced the binding recently and its still folded on the back of the couch. I think I have a picture with each of our grandchildren with that quilt. Its special to me, to say the least.

......But the sunflower quilt! Its so cozy and I love it. Here are some pictures I took of it recently. We took down ...

Durham Art Guild Artist in Residence Experience from Factotum of Arts

My time with the Durham Art Guild (DAG), as an artist in residence (AiR) has come to an end. It was bittersweet, excited about the new opportunities in front of me (more to come) but sad I won’t see everyone as often. I can highly recommend this 6-month (ish) artist in residence. I got so much out of it.

DAG Studio Space at Durham Bottling Company

I learned a lot about myself through this residence, which could be in part due to the fact I had a lot to learn about being a full-time artist for the first time ...

Rain! from Patchwork Times by Judy Laquidara

I had mentioned that it was going to rain yesterday, today, Friday, Saturday AND Sunday. Yesterday it started raining before I was ready . . bad Mother Nature! I ran out, in the rain, a added blood meal to the garlic and before I had even finished, the rain stopped. That was it for yesterday’s...

Floss for No Bees from Patchwork Times by Judy Laquidara

Jean Circle Quilt from Magpie Quilts

This pattern is a fav of mine and as my pile of worn out jeans piled up, I put aside a layer cake bundle (10' squares from the same fabric line) to use as the centers.

There's a bunch of tutorials and patterns online, but I used the pattern Forever in Blue Jeans by Fons and Porter available at Quilting Daily. I often get asked about the dimensions for this quilt, but I encourage quilters to purchase the pattern from the designer.

I decided to sew the cotton fabric, batting and jeans together with an X before sewing the ...

Sew & Tell ~ April 22, 2024 ~ Pieces in Purple from Melva Loves Scraps

It's Done! It's DONE!

Ta-da!!! The purple Pieces of My Life is done... label and all.

To say that I am pleased with the finished quilt is an understatement. The challenge of getting the varying shades of purple to "play well together" was a little intimidating, but one that I rose to conquer. The sashing strips, cornerstones, borders and binding supervised any clashing that may have been there.

I could go on with more thoughts, but I'll just keep it short and sweet and get right to this week's Sew & Tell feature... Deb was getting ready ...

Free Patterns, Surprising Beauty Product, Tiny 9 Patches, Peanut Butter Balls from Canadian Needle Nana

Tony's breakfast...Beth's homemade bread, one slice with peanut butter and the other with marmalade.

He gets a subscription to Down Home, a Newfoundland magazine, every year for his birthday. He enjoys reading it and doing the puzzle pages. I like to check the recipes. Here's one recently that brought back memories...a very popular sweet back home, Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls. Simple ingredients. Would these be popular where you are??

My Sunday slow stitching was finishing these EPP tiny 3 inch 9 patch blocks. I'd put aside a few yellowish scraps when I was sorting ...

One more fabric............ from Exuberant Color

I found another Kaffe print in the same red/orange as the button fabric for a possible choice for binding. I have to check all around the edge and make sure that fabric wasn't used in an edge block.

I spent all morning yesterday sorting my brown/rust/gold fabrics. They had been displaced when I started moving things around in the basement. I love the rich earthy tones but they don't seem to be very popular with most people. These fabrics were formerly on a shelf unit where my black and whites reside now. I can move ...

Stars All Around from Humble Quilts

These little stars are smaller than the first ones I made. Oh my goodness! That one on the left is hilarious! But it is primitive and I think once it is in a quilt it was be as noticeable to me. These are the 3 I managed to get together before leaving for Paducah. Once i have 3 more, I'll be read to start assembling the quilt center!

Nobody wanted the book so I guess I'll throw it away. See the details HERE.

The book has found a home!

I'll be at the Paducah show today! email ...

A Day of Rest from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. We had a day off yesterday. It was a day off except for going to the grocery store. Fortunately our list was short. The grocery store here was so small we were only able to get about half of the items on our list. They didn't have "exotic" things like radishes, and so we'll do a little more grocery shopping in Paducah today. Oh yes, and did I say Paducah? Yes, today is quilt show day. I've been looking forward to attending the quilt show in Paducah for about 16 years...as long ...
