Starbound Finished from Podunk Pretties

Starbound is bound! I can't wait to get her washed and on the bed. This quilt was a great way to use up some bigger scraps of fabric.

The quilting is entirely ruler work. The outer border didn’t turn out as planned, so I added a bit more quilting than I thought was necessary. Since the outer border ended up over quilted, I left the red inner border unquilted to balance it out and keep it softer since it’s bed sized and will be used. Seems logical to me, though it might just be laziness. Haha!

The ...

Scrap Saver System Reboot ~ Quilting UFO Scrap Quilt from Podunk Pretties

Back in May, I decided to start a scrap saver system...again. The picture below was taken on May 3rd. I’ve tried this before but quickly became overwhelmed because I have so many scraps. This time, my plan is to cut only the scraps produced from current projects, with the exception of blue jeans and flannel shirts. My husband’s holey old flannel shirt has been waiting nearly a year to be taken apart, and I finally tackled it this weekend.

The picture below is what I accomplished on May 8th. There are strips and squares ranging from 5 ...

Posies and Pinwheels ~ UFO Finish from Podunk Pretties

Today's UFO quilt top finish is a quilt made with the scraps of the quilt in my previous post.

Finishing at 48 x 48 makes her a great size for a baby quilt or spring table topper.

The backing was pieced from the remaining quilt top scraps and the backing fabric I used on the other quilt mentioned above.

The pattern for this quilt came from a magazine, but the chances of still having that issue are slim since I’ve given away about half of my magazine stash. So, I just went with the first name that popped ...

UFO ~ Garden Lattice Quilt Finish from Podunk Pretties

My, how time flies! It’s been three weeks since my last post. I’ve been keeping busy with all the usual summer yard work and quilting whenever I could find a moment. This past Sunday morning, the Garden Lattice quilt was finally bound and tossed into the washer.

This quilt top has been waiting for years to be finished. It was started in July 2012. The fabrics for the lattice part of this quilt were bought at Walmart around 2005 or 2006. The border fabric, a white on white from Joann’s, and was purchased around the same time ...

Iris Finished ~ Another UFO Started from Podunk Pretties

Every once in a while, we get to work on something truly special. This will be one of my most memorable projects because I had the chance to work out of my comfort zone and honor the unknown creator of the hand embroidered blocks and showcase her incredible craftsmanship.

Working with purple isn't easy for me. When it comes to purple, I avoid it most of the time. The color purple only appears in my scrap quilts because I don’t really like it. In scrap quilts, purple is just another part of the rainbow, blending in nicely without ...
