Accidentally modern
from The Academic Quilter

If you've been around the blog for a bit, you know that "modern" is not really my thing. All that empty space! Most modern quilts look unfinished to me, though I do admire many of them. What can ...

Simple embroidery, relaxing with a needle for no particular purpose.
Well I guess the purpose is the enjoyment, the pleasure and definitely the relaxation.

Curated Star Spangled Fat Quarter Bundles in Red, White, and Blue!
from Busy Hands Quilts
Gardenia Fabrics on Etsy has curated custom Star Spangled Fat Quarter bundles with 60 FQs in Red, White, and Blue. These are the very fabrics I used in the quilt on the Star Spangled pattern cover.

The Star Spangled quilt pattern includes two sizes - Twin and King. Both sizes are the same design with different block sizes, and the King has a few less rows than the Twin; yes, less!
The quilt pattern includes instructions using a fabric cutter, including diagrams for die-cut piecing which is different than piecing ...
