Topper Quilt (And Pillows) COMPLETE from Wedding Dress Blue

Why is it called the Topper Quilt? Because it started out as a TUTORIAL from Free Motion by the River. Great use of Mini Charms (one per block, or a bunch of scrap-cut squares.) AND, if you get carried away, suddenly you have a quilt top. With pillows.

NOTE: This is the front yard of my home. And you are seeing my locally-famous front yard garden. Keeps me honest about weeding…

I love how each block came together and how I was able to use fabric I had on hand. If you have mini charm packs without a purpose, each ...

Don't give up -- just learn and try again! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

OK --- you know how it is when you come across a new word, and you wonder about it, and then POOF -- that word comes up again! In this instance, the word is actually a name - Eilidh - pronounced like Hailey, but without the H. I thought it was a strange spelling, but it popped up this morning on something I was researching, and what are the chances of that? I'll probably see that name and that spelling in many more places now. That's so weird. 

It was a decent day - I managed to solve some of the problems that ...

A new project from My Sewing Room

Since New Year's I've been quite careful and deliberate about fabric purchases.  For the most part I've bought backing for UFO projects, or things that were needed to finish a project already in the works such as backgrounds or binding.  No big purchases have been made for new projects, unless this week. 


But I've fallen off the wagon!!  Almost 20 yards of fabric was purchased this week for a new sew-along by Carol Doak.  And YES - it's another paper pieced project!!  Plus it's FREE.

Garden Stars is just beginning this month via the Facebook ...

Unpicking....................... from Exuberant Color


I cut one strata of the William Morris Trip Around the World project and got 16 loops.  I need 14 to have one complete sequence (because I have 14 fabrics).  I unpicked a different seam on each loop to see what one quarter plus center row at right and bottom will look like.



As I explained in my tutorial last week (label is Trip Around the World tutorial on my label list and also at the bottom of this post), I could now move strips from the left one at a time to see what each fabric looks like at ...

Little House Sampler Quilt Sew Along Finish from Melva Loves Scraps


Welcome back to Melva Loves Scraps and the final instructions for the Little House Sampler Quilt Sew Along.


Layout your blocks in an arrangement, as you desire.  I chose to keep the blocks in the order of the books... 1 through 9, in a way that the log cabins formed furrow rows diagonally.   If you want to choose to change the order (or layout) for any reason that's up to you.

Cut five 2-1/2" wide strips of a background fabric.  Join strips together to be able to cut 2 strips 48-1/2" long and 2 strips 52-1/2 ...

This has been my Wednesday quilt project...

I have been pecking away at it since February.

Gorgeous!

Three Days In A Row from Quilting My Way

I woke to the phone ringing at 9 am. It was my cousin Bryan. He needs me to do something for him, but I will wait till tomorrow. After I hung up with him, I took my shower. Then to get another phone call from Kaiser about the medication they are sending me. I had to know how much it would cost me per month. It's $100 a month to get my medication for cholesterol. It's only 2 applications a month. It's like an allergic pin. I can't spell all the stuff I need to, so ...

Cutting a Watermelon from Jo's Country Junction

When some of the kids were home over Memorial Day weekend, Kelli said mom, “I have a blog post for you.” I grabbed my camera and asked what it was going to be about. She said cutting a watermelon. Hmm. Okay. She ended up cutting a watermelon completely differently than I’ve ever cut one. The …

Distracted by 99 Charms Quilts from Grandma's Red Needle

Who is determined to work on UFOs, WIPs and nothing new? Not me! 
As many of you already know, this year - for me - is dedicated to working on UFOs. My UFO/WIP list is long, but there are progress!  

So far this year, so good! I have finished several UFOs (need to take photos!!).
But it comes to a point where other projects are more tempting, like the '99 Charms Quilts'. I just needed to do something else, something new, and these easy, fast and fun quilts caught my attention! 

I have a big shoe box full of 5" squares ...
