Week 14 of 2026 from Thread Head

This week I made a mini quilt -

Kathleen Tracy had a few block patterns on her FaceBook group for us to make a mini quilt. I used two of the block patterns and made a little table mat.

I tried stepping out of my box for colours for this one - I wanted something a bit lighter and spring like, and chose colours based on the outer border fabric (mainly split complimentary). The blocks are 3", the quilt is 18.5"x26".

We had a snow storm at the beginning of the week (hopefully the last one!), so I used some ...

Memory Bears from Modern Sunbonnet Sue

I had the grandiose idea to make Memory bears. I watched a few videos, purchased a pattern and started by making a couple bears using my stash. I made plastic templates, traced the pattern onto fusible interfacing, and stitched my first bear. I calculated the time to make a bear, material costs, and labor. The […]

Community Quilts from Ray from Jo's Country Junction

Ray has quilts to share. One is extra special as it has a family connection. Ray writes: One of my daughters lives in the Minneapoils/St. Paul area and asked me if I could donate a quilt to the PRISM Food Bank benefit. I looked through tops that were on hand but could not find anything that …

Bookish Catch up and Pink RSC ~ Sew & Tell - 4/5/2026 from Melva Loves Scraps

We have turned the calendar page to a new month and seemingly a new season. March marched out with an attitude and the blustery winds continue. *sigh* None the less, it is my birthday month and I'm going to celebrate it as often as I get a chance! Sixty some years ago I arrived on Easter Sunday, and I am celebrating by getting ready to go camping. While my birthday is later in the month, I still celebrate on Easter. I hope that your Easter-Resurrection Day is blessed.

But before I get into talking about our trip let's ...

April 2026 Challenge from Mel's quilting blog

2026 should be a better year for completions.

I have a lot of memory projects I REALLY want to finish this year.

My 2026 List is:

1. Donna's Memory Quilts (4)

The first top is done. Does it need to be bigger, or do borders need to be added?

2. Lillian's Memory Bears (10)

I have one started.

I need to take a few days and make them in an assembly line.

The stuffing will be the challenge.

I've sewn a little, but without much focus.

3. Ashley High School Graduation Quilt

I have the shirts sorted ...

Neuer BOM from Grit's Life

Ihr Lieben,

heute habe ich etwas ganz Besonderes, das ich unbedingt mit euch teilen möchte.

Bei Grit's Life startet ein wunderschöner BOM (Block of the Month) – und ich freue mich wirklich sehr darauf! Für dieses Projekt habe ich gleich zwei Varianten genäht, weil ich mich einfach nicht entscheiden konnte.

Die Grundlage bildet die Anleitung „Amish with a Twist“ von Nancy Rink. Für die farbenfrohe Regenbogenversion habe ich mich zusätzlich von der Variante von Tula Pink inspirieren lassen – ein echtes Herzensprojekt!

Neben der Regenbogenvariante warten noch viele weitere wunderschöne Stoffkombinationen auf euch. Im Onlineshop findet ihr unter dem Bereich ...

Hello There,

Thank you so much for stopping in! I sure hope you all are doing better than I am. It's my birthday weekend and strep throat decided to crash the party. I've been miserable, but am hopeful the coming week will be better. My husband, who is an amazing cook, made me a big pot of delicious chicken/vegetable soup! It's so soothing to my throat. Thank You, God for antibiotics, my wonderful husband and chicken soup!

Before I got sick, my husband was also in to mood to paint my sewing room. The walls are ...

Slow Sunday Stitching from Eagle's Wings Quilts

I want to take the opportunity to wish all who celebrate a very happy Resurrection Sunday.

I wrote last week that I hoped to have the Bear for the Year in the Woods project finished by today. I made that goal with just hours to spare. I finished it last evening and then got a start on gridding the next section for the chipmunk. It is 10 grids across by 14 down. It is time consuming to do, but I have caught so many mistakes by having the grids there that is is more than worth the time and effort ...

Happy Easter! from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends, and Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

I gave myself a lazy day yesterday, although lately it seems as if every day is a lazy day. Since we've been home from our trip, my energy level has been running on low. It occurred to me that this could be a side effect from my having started alendronate (generic for Fosamax). Fortunately, I've had no other side effects. I might ignore the lack of energy, thinking it's just from being busy during the day, but it seems unusual for me.

Whatever the case, I ...

Easter Embroidery from Kitty and Me Designs

Hello and Happy Easter!

I thought I'd share some little Easter Door Hanging gifts that I made for my sweet neighbor ladies:

The patterns came from my collection of Vintage Iron-On Embroidery Transfers. I used the Crayon Tinting technique to color them before stitching.

Have a wonderful Easter Sunday and don't eat too many Chocolate Eggs!

Stitching Progress and A Spring Photo Too from Canadian Needle Nana

It's early spring which I think in some ways is the saddest and ugliest time of the year here. There is not a single hint yet of all the glorious green to come and I've been out there looking. But more about that at the bottom of this post.

Sewing progress first... I worked on my appliqued Quarter Dresdens and finished the March reds. It will be nice to move on to pinks, the RSC April colour.
