New Mystery Stitch-Along? Please read! from Kitty and Me Designs


Hi everyone!
 
I’ve been sitting at my computer a lot lately, thinking about doing something a little different. I enjoy doing the Mystery Stitch-Along's but there's a lot of techie work on my end doing it thru Etsy and Facebook. 
 
To kick things off, I'm thinking of doing a 3-Part Winter Mystery Stitch-Along that finishes up by February 1st. Then we could start a new one for Spring.
 
I’m also thinking about starting a "Pattern of the Month Club". They would be small designs, maybe 60 X 60 or 75 X 75 stitches, where members ...

Free Motion Quilting – Cupid from I Patch and Quilt

The design Cupid is a fun grid-based design. Within the triangles (or diamond) we place hearts in a continuous manner. The design can be stitched out as a single row or applied in repeat or even as an edge to edge.

There is thread buildup with this design, so consider the thickness and colour of your thread carefully!

FMQ-ipatchandquilt-Cupid-02

The design can be quilted completely freehand after marking the diagonal lines. You could also choose to quilt the diagonal lines first with a walking foot or ruler and then add the hearts afterwards.

Take a look at this quick drawing video ...

Saturday Sparks Link Party 735 from Pieced Pastimes

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 735!

Starting off today's party with a sweet trio!


Our driveway camera captured this family the other day.

I love how the mama bear stands guard as her babies pass by.


It's bear hunting season at the moment, so the bears are very active.

Stay safe, my friends.

Now, onto the party,

First up, the Fabulous Features from Saturday Sparks 733

Quilt Shop Hop Day! from Quiltville's Quips & Snips!


Friday was the designated "Hit up the quilt shops!" Day, and at any given time, more folks were gone than were left behind.

I love that they love our local quilt shops.

I love to see what they bring back!

Do I have FOMO for not riding along (in my matching t shirt?!) YES! 

And no.  I look around the studio and think "How am I ever going to sew all of this up?!"

But I'm so glad they get out and enjoy their time here and that the quilt shops know they are visiting while staying at the ...

182 Day Solstice Challenge - UFO#15 FINISHED! from Grandma's Red Needle

Pat Sloan's '182 Day Solstice Challenge' is FINISHED! 
This is UFO #15 on my UFO list 2026

I'm so glad I did this quilt in RSC colors. 
I really love how it turned out.


I changed the layout a little bit, for not to get blocks with the same colors next to each other. Two (the turquoise blocks at the top) are a bit close, but that's OK.

Here are some of the blocks


Block #9 - Among the Stars


Block #8 - Never ending love


Block #5 ...

An unventful travel day! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

As I sit surrounded by junk in the office, I remind myself of the list I put together yesterday. I don't have time to deal with any of it today, but I'll keep plugging away at it. I just might have more incentive now. 

OH—there is one thing I need to add to that list, and this is NOT new. 

USE the good things NOW!!!! I don't care if this is your favorite china, crystal, or the FABRIC that is too good to cut. If you don't use it now, someone is going to take ...

RSC26 - Week #39 from My Sewing Room


It is always fun to get to the end (or nearly the end) of a month and look back at the results of that month's color play.  This week I was really focusing on finishing some UFO projects, but in between those things I just played with the purple scraps.  No real purpose - just playing.  That resulted in some string blocks, one Cheerios block, a couple of Hollow-9s, and 2 more Crackers and Jam paper pieced tiny blocks.  What FUN!!


Looking back at the previous weeks' productivity in purple was surprising.  At this point in the year I'm ...

Spooky from Just Sew Sue

 

My daughter, Lizzie, left this quilt behind for me to quilt. Hubby is visiting Matt and Lizzie next Friday in the UK so will be delivering it back to her. I am sure she'll have it bound ready for Halloween. Lizzie has drafted many of the blocks herself and I particularly like the potion bottles and the cauldron.

The backing is from a duvet cover. The quilt is quilted with a digital design called Nightmare by Anne bright in a dark grey thread.

Breakfast first............. from Exuberant Color


It was cold enough in the house yesterday morning to bake something for breakfast.  Yes, I ate two of them before I thought about taking a photo.








The box mix was dated September last year but I knew it would still be good.  There were several ways to mix these and I chose the one with heavy cream.  Yum!!








I was clearing off a table in the basement and found this table runner top and backing already cut, ready to find a piece of batting.  I got it layered and quilted last night.  Trimming is next and then finding a ...

Scrappy Saturday from Quarter-Inch Capers

It was a busy week, so I wasn’t able to do as much sewing as I had hoped. The Quilt Guild Open House was Thursday and Friday, and of course, I spent part of Wednesday getting all my stuff together. More on that at the end of this post. 


I did get a few Rainbow Scrap Challenge block done. I was able to finish another aqua/turquoise one before I moved on to purple.


I could use a few more of these, but it may not happen. 

Once I moved to purple, I made two of the 16-patch star ...

Community Quilt from Jo from Jo's Country Junction

Not too long ago, the Cresco Ladies dropped off a bag of quilt tops. I sorted through them, getting them ready to send out to finishers. As I was sorting, I came across this top… Oh, I loved it! The colors were great. It looked like a perfect picnic quilt. That’s when I decided I …

The Missing Link Between Buying Electric Quilt 8 and Actually Using It from On Point Quilter

Have you purchased Electric Quilt 8 with big dreams of designing your own quilts—only to feel overwhelmed once you opened the program?

You’re not alone.

Many quilters discover that EQ8 is packed with powerful tools, but without guidance, it can feel like more frustration than fun.

That’s exactly why I created the Tech Know Quilters Academy.

In this 10 minute video, I’ll share how the Academy can help you move from stuck and uncertain to confident and creative—designing quilts that are truly your own.

​Watch the video  to see how you can finally unlock the ...

POWER OUT TODAY from Quilting My Way

    This morning, I decided to stay in bed. But that didn't last long. Patrick was able to take his shower since he had the nurse coming today. 

I was enjoying the morning, till the nurse arrived and the power went out. I had been chatting with Colleen, since she was at the grange getting the garage sale underway - not. She had some trouble getting to the grange because of the wind, rain and down trees. When our power went out, she was worried it would affect her going to pick her granddaughter up. I headed over there to help ...

What we’re Working On from Eagle's Wings Quilts

 I didn’t get too many pictures yesterday. I was pretty focused on finding the perfect fabrics to build loons with. I’m doing a variation of this block. It will have some pieced flying geese in the background. We have started the blocks for next year’s fund raiser. It will be a combination of Marie Noah blocks and McKenna Ryan designs for another Muskoka themed wildlife and countryside quilt. It takes a lot of sorting and a lot of digging in order to find the prefect fabric just right for a loon’s wing. However, I did get ...

I like how jelly roll jumble is looking from Beryl the Pearl
