Happy St. Patrick's Day! from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. Hopefully, you're wearing your green this morning. I haven't decided on today's wardrobe, but it will definitely include my Irish socks from actual Ireland.

It's going to be a kitchen day here. I like to get my Irish up for St. Patrick's Day, and so I'm making an Irish themed dinner tonight. We'll have some Irish Brown Bread...a new recipe to me, so I hope it's good. That'll go with our Irish Beef Stew. For dessert we'll have these Bruleed Key Lime Tarts. I made ...

Sew & Tell - 3/16/2026 from Melva Loves Scraps


I saw that Alycia was doing the quilter's rain dance the other day... she swapped out the Christmas quilt for a Spring quilt and washed her car as an extra insurance that it would indeed rain.


Here in southern Colorado, we are so very dry.  The fire danger is already high, and the spring winds are making it worse.  Nebraska has numerous fires they have been dealing with... 

So... I decided to join her in the Quilter's Rain Dance.  I changed the red and white vintage quilt on the guest bed to a very spring-like vintage pink Irish ...

Guess?, March Mad Weather, Slow Stitching Projects from Canadian Needle Nana

I can tell by the window's light when it's time to get up in the mornings. By 6:30 there is a certain brightness creeping in that tells me it's time to start the day. How wonderful to be able to start my days by the light rather than alarm clocks. I am always thankful to be retired.

I got to a thrift store recently and had quite a good poke about. One of the things in my header photo was a real find. I'd commented before that sometimes I think things in those stores are ...

St. Patrick's Day in the Snow? from Quiltville's Quips & Snips!


It started yesterday about 4pm.  The sleet mixed with the dreaded white stuff.

Once I heard it pelting against the windows of the QPO studio, I knew I better get home and get up the mountain fast before the drive covered over.

What the heck, Virginia!  It was 82 f degrees last Wednesday, and you pull THIS?!?!

This and that from My Sewing Room

Monday morning was a good one for sewing, with progress again on multiple projects.    


Because I was out of binding to do in the evenings, I pulled out one of the doll quilts that I made earlier this winter, and got binding put on it. Since it's only 25" square it probably will only take 1 evening to hand stitch.  


The block for Saturday Sampler for March is done. This block is 15" finished. Anthologie is the pattern we're using this year, and it is a sampler type of project with a mix of traditional blocks plus applique ...

Star Cluster from Night Owl Quilting


Wendy brought this bold quilt that comes from designer Tula Pink.  The pattern is called Star Cluster and features fabrics from two of Tula's collections - Everglow and True Colors Neon.


Every block features a fussy cut center featuring all the colorful animals.  The fabric is neon in person.  These pictures do not really capture that.


Wendy chose the Soho pantograph and the circles certainly complement the large polka dot setting triangles.   Wendy added a cozy Cuddletex backing and had the binding stripe added by my colleague Marion.  This is just such a bright and happy quilt.  How can you ...

Things to make from collaged fabric! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

Dang it—why do we get embarrassed when we do something silly? Especially when an acknowledgement of our slight accident and a kind word would make everything better! We are all guilty of that! Thankfully, my landing was soft, and I had no bruises, nothing. BUT it's going to be dicey out there this morning, so I may wait. I'll see how it goes. The problem is that when you get either of the girls out the door to test, it's very hard to get them back in! 

The day of puzzling continues. WAIT -- I'll start ...

Sewing on two................ from Exuberant Color


There was a large pile to press yesterday, including these 4 Marcia Derse fabrics for the last 2 blocks.  I will get them cut today.  I also pressed all of the finished blocks that were in the test layout yesterday.








I pressed the 14 stratas from the day before and got them cut into 2 columns.  Later in the afternoon I sewed them into blocks, so they are ready to press now.





I had 2 hours of TV to watch and nothing set up to sew, so I grabbed a box of Marcia Derse fabric scraps and started making crazy ...

Sneak Peak of Quilt in Color Fabric Line from Riley Blake from Christa Quilts

I’m so excited about my debut fabric line with Riley Blake called Quilt in Color. Now you may be wondering why I switched fabric companies? Simply put, it was time for me to stretch my wings and grow. In all of my previous 10 fabric collections, I had help with the technical aspects of design. But this one is ALL me and I couldn’t be more proud! Take a look at the color cards below:

What do you think? I poured my heart and soul into this collection. It includes 21 colorful prints + 3 machine quilting practice panels ...

Taking A Quilt Apart from Quilting My Way

This morning, it was BE day. I didn't do any BE work. Instead, I help mom by taking out the stitches on the anniversary quilt. 

It was the one I did. 


It was given to a quilter that is new and said she has quilted for years. I'm not showing the whole quilt that was quilted. I think even mom said she does good work. BUT this time she did not! 

I did get some work done. It's coming out easily and the quilting was done by regular thread not quilting thread. That actually made it 100 ...

FMQ and Facets Quilt from The Knitting Quilter


I added that last round of full blocks to the Facets quilt. These blocks are 6.5" square. This quilt top so far measures about 84" square. I just started cutting some pieces for the border. The border round is much smaller and I expect to finish it quicker. The main color is red with a pale yellow background. I think they measure around 2" X 6.5".
 

I loaded the baby quilt and started quilting it over the weekend. I'm not doing anything too fancy. I'm making free motion loops, ribbon candy, and arcs. The thread is ...
