Day 4 - Trip To Moorea & Today from Quilting My Way

Okay, I got some of my accounting wrong, but you get the idea of what we were doing. We actually tried to go to the Waterfall the first day we were there. It was WAY off the beaten path. We drove through a neighborhood, then a bumpy road that went into a skinny lane of mud. So, we parked like so many others did. Then we hiked about a half mile When it was up a hill on rocky soil. We got halfway up the hill when Kat said it was another mile to the falls. UGH - so we called ...

Bright and bold from Kat & Cat Quilts

Hello, friends! Louise here to share some vibrant quilts made using YOUR orphan blocks. Let's jump right in with this fiery piece. I pulled blocks with reds and yellows in them and sized them up or down to make them all 12.5" square. Simple thin white sashing and borders lets them glow.

This quilt started as a big batch of crumb blocks in every color. I decided to alternate them with navy and golden chunks of fabric and it visually enhanced out all the blues and yellows in the crumbs. I'm always amazed at how that works ...

Lala's Irish Chain - Week IV from Melva Loves Scraps

Welcome back to Week 4 of Lala's Irish Chain. This week's step is making a two-patch unit joining your background 2-1/2" squares with assorted 2-1/2" squares from your jelly roll or stash.

Press seams toward the assorted print fabric. This will help with nesting seams when the patchwork blocks are assembled.

Since Lala was a seamstress, making dresses for several ladies in Trinidad, I am sure she had a good variety of fabrics to choose from, including some feed sack fabrics from flour and sugar bags at the mercantile or store.

Her paid work as a ...

Milestones and Miles from From the Strawberry Patch...

It's the result of a R,W & B online fabric swap through White Shanty Quilts, the pattern is available there too. Julia Davis is the person behind White Shanty, she offers the swaps several times a year if you're interested, always color-themed. When this one was offered I knew that I wanted a

Lambs and Lemurs from ... Cat Patches

Good morning, my friends. Our air quality continued to suck yesterday. According to our local newspaper, Portland has the worst air quality on the planet right now.

It was worse yesterday than the day before. The day before had the air quality index rating of "unhealthy to sensitive people." Yesterday's air quality index gave us a rating of just plain "unhealthy." To everyone. We're expecting another day of bad air today. With a shift of the wind, hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.

Checking the garden, I decided hoeing could wait for the air quality to improve ...

Pioneer Quilt Guild from Sew'n Wild Oaks Quilting Blog

Hello Everyone,

What a week this has been! I spoke to the Pioneer Quilt Guild in Rocklin, CA on Monday.

What a fun group of quilters who laughed in all of the right places during my lecture.

Here's just a small sample of their creativity on display during their show and tell.

Take a close look at the machine quilting......incredible!

I spy a gorgeous Ribbon Runs Through It!

Here’s just a glimpse of the creativity bursting out of my Lucy Boston class for the Pioneer Quilt. What a day of laughter, and fussy‑cutting frenzy. I’m ...

That Last Stitch - from Quiltville's Quips & Snips!

I took the last stitches in my hexagon quilt assembly.

Stitched my way to that last corner, did a couple of stitches in the corner to anchor it tightly, and then did what I always do when ending an EPP seam...take a few stitches back again toward the center of the seam and knot away from the corner to keep the corners secure and tight.

Two stitches in every corner, then stitch away from the corner for three stitches and then knot.

There is no way my corners are ever going to gap.

And then...it was done.

Click ...

Two Quilts and a Recipe from Quarter-Inch Capers

It’s a little too hot for comfort. I am watering the outside plants every other day, and I’m not sure it’s enough. There are a couple I need to give up on and throw away. According to the weather forecast, next week should be a little better. There are no days above 93 degrees forecasted. In the meantime, we could sure use some rain. My starfish cactus is blooming again, plus has two more buds that haven’t opened. It’s so unusual.

It’s good weather to stay inside and quilt. I was able to put ...

Living in a world of boxes from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

What an insane day yesterday was. It felt like we were living in a warehouse! Every time I turned around, there were more boxes in the house.

After getting my morning chores out of the way, it was time to head to the lighting store to see what I could find. I didn't have the luxury to be choosy, but I sort of knew what I wanted. And seriously, I think people spend way too much dithering over decisions. I was in and out of the lighting store in about 1.5 hours.

I walked in the store, and ...

Denim on my mind from My Sewing Room

I'm determined to empty out a couple of project boxes holding forgotten projects, and projects that I have been slow to finish. Yesterday I posted about the box full of squares from guild members. Today - it's all about denim.

Have you ever made a denim quilt? About 30 years ago I made a denim couch quilt using jeans outgrown by my girls. It was put together like a crazy quilt, with odds and ends of cotton fabrics too. The backing is flannel, so it weighs a ton. It was tied rather than quilted.

Fast forward those 30 years ...

Good progress............... from Exuberant Color

I finished piecing all 8 of the Block A and 2 of the Block B. I pinned 4 of them up on the design wall to get an idea whether my fabric choices worked.

A couple pinks could have been a little lighter, but overall I'm happy with it. I'll finish sewing the last 4 B blocks today and get the 2 sections of each row sewn together. Then I can press all of the seams before I add the rows to each other. With a little luck I may be able to finish it today,
