Skimming Stones appliqué quilt pattern from Stitch and Yarn

One day I'm going to have my own screenprint table… but for now I'm just going to enjoy the release of my Skimming Stones quilt pattern – made from swatches I screenprinted for a range of fabrics I designed. It's a great feeling knowing you've not only made a quilt but also hand printed the fabrics it's made from.

Surface design was something I had some experience with, but it's a different way of thinking to design for screenprinting, and it was a good 20 years since I'd done it previously – making sure you ...

Marvellous Minis with Island Batik from Clever Chameleon

Year of the Pig appliqué by Dione Gardner-Stephen at Clever Chameleon

Happy New Year of the Pig 2019

February is Mini Quilt Month in the Island Batik Ambassador calendar: “Create a mini quilt 24″ x 24″ or smaller, any technique” is the challenge we’ve been given. Minis are a great way to try a new technique, or explore resource/time intensive projects on a doable scale. Or to commemorate an occasion or holiday. Like the Lunar New Year. For my first 2019 Ambassador challenge I decided to make something to mark Chinese New Year. Happy New Year of the Pig!

Christmas Figs Sew Along Block #12 from Pat Sloan's Blog

With block Block #12 of Christmas Figs I'm showing off polka dots, so fun!

The Christmas Fig Book is Required

The Red & Green is just like the quilt in the book.

I am doing the tips with Something Blue Fabric as I make a 2nd quilt

On this block I love how a strong secondary image showed up when using the polka dot. It's much stronger than the green in the red/green as that red is stronger in that blocks and pops forward.

Daughter's Pretties, Rex and I from Canadian Needle Nana

This Thursday finds me somewhere different. I am at older daughter's house, about 30 minute's drive away, staying with my teenaged grandson while she is away on holiday. I love her little cottagey house and shared a few photos last year when I did the same thing. You can read my post about that here. She has a real eye for surrounding herself with things that spark joy I would have to say. :)

Looking out at her back yard. Her large stained glass hanging looks like a quilt pattern to me. I think of the propeller pattern and ...

"In the Garden"—Wisteria Border and Quilt Assembly from Telling Stories Through the Needle's Eye

In November, this wonderful group of ladies completed the final class of our Block of the Month quilt, In the Garden, at Primitive Homespuns Wool and Needleworks in Frederick, Maryland. We had such an awesome time together—stitching, sharing stories, learning new skills, and just having fun. Our last class was a bit bittersweet for me (Teri), as I'd come to look forward to meeting with the girls every month. But there will be other classes.

Our last session focused on assembling the blocks into a quilt, as well as how to make the wisteria border. Kathy, the owner ...

quilted pillowslips for valentines day from block-a-day

Julian and I were chatting over coffee on Monday morning. He had his calendar open, planning the days he will work in Melbourne over the next couple of weeks.

Him: Any preferences?

Me: Definitely not next Monday, I’m working an evening and I need you here to put away the poultry

I’m very mundane with my preferences.

Him: Hmmmm … I need to be away for three days, so if I don’t go Monday that means I will be away Valentine’s Day.

Me: Huh! I didn’t even know you knew when Valentine’s was!

Then wishing ...

Problem solved! from Applique 'n Patch Quilting

Today, my post is about showing how my problem was solved with not being able to use my light table or window to transfer the applique layout onto my borders. The fabric was just too dark to see through.

To get started, photocopies were made of the applique pattern. Since my top was made a lot bigger than the original pattern, extra parts of the border applique was added.

Pasting and cutting the photocopies together until the perfect length was made. Then I started cutting out the applique bits. This is part of what my stencil looks like.

Can you ...

Focus focus focus! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

I'm not sure why I wasn't focused on quilting before. I mean - focused on finishing projects. I would flit from one project to another until I had a room full of UFOs. Why does it take "experience" AKA aging to bring that point home? If only I was this focused when I started, I'd be laughing! Now I'm in the midst of a major cleanup. So if you're new to quilting, DO NOT let those UFOs get out of hand.

However the good news is that it's like shopping for free. The UFOs that ...

UFO Busting for February - Tip #2 from Pat Sloan's Blog

So you have spent the last month, few days, what seems like a lifetime.....

digging in boxes....
sorting through bags...
looking under the beds in the spare bedroom...
and some of you even got your family to bring boxes down from the attic or up from the basement! It is very brave to invovle 'the family'.. I applaud you! Unless of course you told them you were sorting your Christmas decorations, in that case you are VERY creative.. wink!

You have been reporting at my Internet group on how many projects you found, your categories.. or in some cases you ...

Some of This; Some of That from The Quilting Reader's Garden

I've been making string blocks, starting a new EPP, finished up an applique block, made a charity block for Covered in Love, and began quilting my UFO and a charity quilt - phew. So only have .53 yds to add to the stash report. But I bagged yardage and scraps from my Sweet Land of Liberty that I no longer want. Found homespuns are so loosely woven, I don't care to work with them again. I
