More Weekly Finishes from Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework

Even though the temperatures are hot, we are already starting to plan for fall. That means flannel quilts will start to be completed.

I really love this all flannel one. Kristen sent in both the top and the backing. In fact, I think I was able to use some of the batting she sent us on this quilt too. I had a lot of fun quilting it - I loaded it on its side and quilted in some linear swirls and some squiggly lines.

Check out this big beauty. Nann donated the quilt top and the pink backing came from Karen ...

Tomorrow, it is time to make a delivery of Compassion Quilts to the hospital.

We are already working on next month's order!

I was happy to see this lovely scrap quilt in the pile to photograph today. It proves to me I CAN make a nice scrap quilt. All of these florals were all leftovers from previous quilts. Mari sent in the backing fabric and local quilter Terry quilted it up for us.

Board President Penny made this Split 4-patch quilt top. She has been busy using up a bunch of fall colored fabrics in her stash. I think ...

A Split 4-Patch Finish from Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework

We have been pushing through quite a few kid quilts lately. We have received just about all of the blocks from the drive so we are separating them and working on layouts.

This fun quilt top was sent in by Cheryl. I love how she used the Split 4_patch block. It al all about cute little hedgehogs. And thanks to Jeanine, we had some hedgehog fabric for the backing.

I have been busy cleaning up some stacks of Happy Blocks that were made over a year ago. This little I-Spy quilt is backed with some Cars fabric that Kaelly and ...

Finally Some Finishes from Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework

Hey, I finally found a bit of time to write up a blog post with some of our finishes. We are all preparing for an ice storm that is supposed to hit tonight. Hopefully it will be a short hindrance and temps warm up quickly. I just hope we don't lose power.

First up is this fun quilt top sent in by Kristin. Did you notice some of the blocks are made with smaller bits? that is a great way to make enough blocks when you are short some. Kristin also sent in this soft blue print for the ...

The current block drive is the Split 4_patch in bright colors for kids. We added some to the Happy Blocks we made in our last kids' block drive....

This quilt has a fun fruit theme. Lots of pink so we just decided to add a pink flannel that Kristin sent for the back. Really looking forward to playing more with these blocks.

This quilt measures 56" x 64".

I admit, we just got this top and backing from Cindy. But I loved it so much, I put it right ...

Block Drive - Split 4 Patch from Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework

It is hard to believe that it is already time for another block drive. I am nowhere near finished with the last one! We are making blocks for kids again. I first made this block DECADES ago and it took me a bit to puzzle out how to make it. I think you are going to have some fun making them.

I have no idea what it is officially called - so I am going with a Split 4 Patch.

For each block you will need two 5" squares of a novelty print and two 5" squares of a solid or ...
