I thought I do a little post on how I go about quilting the Baptist Fan over a lap sized quilt (54 x 60in) using my new rulers from Michael Quilts. Hopefully someone will find this useful and take the plunge in terms of trying this out on one of their quilts.
My list from last week:
Well, I had an interesting two weeks. I have been working steadily away on my 'formal' table runner. It took ages to do the grid on there and I decided to take out the markings closer to the end as I found the blue lines were starting to be very distracting in terms of deciding whether to fill more or leave it.
I finished one of the quilt tops from the Orange Tree Quilters group. Another beautiful little quilt!
Hello everybody...I have re-surfaced from the wedding week! My daughter got married last week and hence no quilting was done obviously. It's been busy but we did have a wonderful day. Everything came miraculously together, the weather was great, we had great food and everybody had a lot of fun.
Well, here we go again...missed my To Do Tuesday Link up. Not a good start to the year.
Well, I lost the plot again for a few weeks in terms of my weekly goals, however did manage to finish at least one thing from my list a few weeks ago.
Radio silence from me again for a few days. I have been designing which always takes me some time to do. I have been asked to do another class next year doing a Mini Wholecloth class.
I made a concentrated effort to get that Rose Charity quilt finished, again focussing in on minimal marking and keeping the quilt nice and soft. For this quilt I literally just wanted some embellishment as the fabric itself is quite striking and very patterned. So I mainly quilted in the black parts and just did a few line designs in the other parts to stabilise the quilt. This is what I like about these charity quilts. Not only are they a real surprise every time I open the packets from the Orange Tree Quilters group, they are also a real ...

Misleading title as it is Thursday here already. However, I missed last week's Tuesday and do not want to fall off by the wayside again.
My goals for last week were:
I m back onto my background filler project after a few weeks of a bit of a break. Felt somewhat overwhelmed with the enormity of the project and lost some steam to keep going. So I did a few other projects to take my mind off mainly working on some listings for my Etsy shop but also 'playing' around on EQ8 with some new patterns (fantastic program...was able to manipulate a pre-existing layout into the custom size that I wanted, changed it a bit and ended up with at least 5 different versions of possible quilts - there is another ...

Joanna Due made this gorgeous quilt! Pattern is Prima Ballerina by @prideandjoyquilting. In my mind the dancer was jumping (see photo 2) so I orientated her according to my brain… when I searched the pattern online (halfway through quilting) and realized I had the customers backing loaded sideways I was mortified. Thankfully Joanna has a great sense of humor and forgave me. Who knows maybe she will hang her ballerina jumping

I just finished up this beautiful quilt by @hannalautz ! She did an amazing job putting this beauty together. She used all @rubystarsociety fabrics and based it loosely from @laundrybasketquilts pattern Dot Dot Dot.
