I finished the challenge quilt, now named Still Life, for some fabric out. It’s always a relief to get those quilts finished on time.
I won’t get the next challenge until the 26th, which leaves time to do something else. With lots going on between now and then, a handful of small projects makes the most sense.
I pulled fabric to make pillowcases. A lot of bedding made its way into the rag bin this year, and we need replacements.

I would also like to frame Words of Joy Tree ...
read moreHere's a quick tutorial for printing quilt labels with an ink jet printer at home with regular fabric. I fall back on this approach when I don't have any commercial printer ready fabric or when I want to use quilt fabric. I think I learned how to do this from Caryl Bryer Fallert many years ago in a fabric printing workshop she taught for my shop.
It's simple but there are a few tricks for success.
This weekend, I finished the twelfth block for my version of Pamala Jo Designs Whirly Weeds 2023 Sewalong and I have ...
read moreGood morning, my friends. It's January's last gasp today. Tomorrow is the reveal for the challenge quilt I've teased you with. Are you ready?
My post is written and I'm ready to go. Yesterday saw me sidetracked by the Bernie's Mittens project. I was supposed to work on the Purrfectly Pieced quilt, but you know...the best laid plans, and all that.
Mike and Erik are getting together this week to work on a project, and I really wanted to finish it off. When I saw it lying on Eliza's table, I decided to ...

read moreEven without my favourite sewing machine, I was able to sew and quilt with the walking foot, my son's Mallard Duck mini. When I showed it to him, he said that he would find a spot for this one and the other two that I've made for him.
Finishing the Mallard Duck
As you saw in my Making a Mallard Duck Mini post, the foundation paper piecing went well. I always manage to make at least one piece that doesn't have enough selvage but I'm really good at problem solving

I was long-winded on the topic of that vintage Economy quilt yesterday, so today's post is going to be Short and Sweet!
I have a Major Goal for April as well as a Minor Goal. The Minor Goal is to get my Color Outside the Lines bear paw quilt off my WIP list. That entails labeling, binding, and hand finishing the binding on this one. After clearing off the heaps of fabric debris on the cutting table from my kaleidoscope, I finally had room to trim the bear paw quilt and machine embroider its label yesterday.

Good Morning Quilters! This week has been a week where several projects were worked on, nothing was finished completely, and some cleaning of the quilt room happened. Actually, a very little bit of cleaning, but some happened. Some weeks are like that.The only quilting to show you is that the broken dishes doll quilt will now have a border of hsts. It looked too plain, and I got out my

Last Week's To-Do List:
Stay on top of the linky party and continue to spread the word to other machine quilters. Get the linky post written and scheduled to publish in advance.

"Brother Bear" is quilted, off the rails and trimmed for finishing. My normal order of doing things, once quilting is completed, is to print out a label and make the hanging sleeve and binding; then I place the hanging sleeve and label into position and attach them at the same time that I stitch the binding on. This was the last sheet of Printed Treasures that I have on hand. I realized a few
