Summer Jubilee Sew Along Week 5 from Art Gallery Fabrics-The Creative Blog

Hi Quilters!

Welcome to week 5 of the Summer Jubilee Sew Along!

We are almost to the finish line. By now, you have made all of the blocks, and now it is time to assemble your quilt top!

This will be an easy and fun week.

If you didn't press your blocks as you were making them, now is the time to do that. Pressed blocks sew together better.

I recommend pressing the seams open as indicated in the pattern, but if you press your seams to the side, you can get flatter seams by placing the blocks under ...

Summer Jubilee Sew Along Week 3 from Art Gallery Fabrics-The Creative Blog

Hi Quilters,

Welcome to Week 3 of the Summer Jubilee Sew Along!

By now, you have made your Starburst blocks, and now we are ready to dive into the Rosette Blocks!

Chain piecing will be your friend this week as we make all the little units that will become the Rosette blocks.

These blocks may feel complicated, but they consist of blocks you are probably already really familiar with: half square triangles (HSTs) and Flying Geese (FGs).

The HSTs are made 8 at a time, and the FGs are made 4 at a time so you can create the units ...

Summer Jubilee Sew Along Week 2 from Art Gallery Fabrics-The Creative Blog

Hi Quilters,

Welcome to Week 2 of the Summer Jubilee Sew Along!

If you are just joining or haven't chosen fabrics yet, kits are still available HERE. Grab one while they last!

This week we are cutting our fabrics and will begin assembling the units to make our Starburst blocks.

I love to start with a fresh blade and usually begin with cutting the background first since this usually has the most cuts (and honestly, it keeps me motivated to keep cutting since the prints are the most fun to cut, right?

There are fabric labels provided for you ...

A New Quilt Pattern - Quilty Cabins Quilt Pattern - in the Red, White, and Blues of Picadilly! from Busy Hands Quilts

Hello and welcome to the first day of the Island Batik Ambassador Row by Row blog hop. This is my quilt, Stars and Stripes Forever that I made with the new Americana fabric collection by Kathy Engle.

Missouri Star Shop Feature: Primitive & Wool from The Cutting Table Quilt Blog - A Blog for Quilters by Quilters

“Primitive,” also known as “Early Americana” style, emerged from within the first colonies here in the “New World.” Once the colonists were finally settled in, they had a bit more time get creative with everyday necessities such as clothing, furniture, and children’s toys.

While sewing up clothes for their children and fulfilling the duty of “homemaker,” women started to enhance their making skills with decorative stitching and design, steering away from trends in Europe and creating the first American style.

Today, folk artists use modern elements to create an antiquated look. At Missouri Star Quilt Co., we have a ...

Americana Bald Eagle Applique from Linda's Art Quilts

Framed Americana Bald Eagle with Flag - Felt Applique

A Little Background

A few years ago the process of felt applique grabbed my interest and I set about making five or six 9" x 12" works. Until recently, they had become "lost" in my stash of unfinished projects. After much searching, I did find them.

There is going to be a local silent action for a political fund raiser and my mind went to the first felt appliqued piece that I made. Because it is small and because the back shows stitching that isn't really appealing, I spray mounted a ...
