What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends. If you read yesterday's post, then you already know our yesterday was spent sight-seeing in the nearby towns of Zillah and Toppenish. We left the RV early to head down the road a mile to have a breakfast of our beloved Egg McMuffins, and then we made our trek to both towns. We were back at the camper before noon. We were staying in one of the less desirable private RV parks. I can't complain too much. The place was nothing fancy. The worst part is that the surrounding area is populated by feedlots ...

A couple of months ago I needed a project box for something, and I pulled out one that I thought was empty. Surprise! It had a partially assembled top in it. I had taken it to a retreat as my extra project in case I finished whatever else I was working on and still had time. The center of the top was complete, it just needed borders, which were cut and in the box. I guess I put the box back in the cabinet and forgot about it. The top was a quick finish.

 We had another productive day at Prayers and Squares yesterday. Tammy brought in another finished quilt top. When she first started coming out to our group, she was a newbie quilter. Now, she is cranking out a quilt a week. She looks over the fabrics on our shelves, picks a combination she likes, takes them home and a week later brings in a finished top. Diane took home these Bricks and Stepping Stones blocks last week and brought back a finished top. During the summer of 2025, the members of our group did a bit of a challenge where we ...

Those treasured scraps have been waiting for their moment to shine, and it’s finally here! Since 2022, we have shared a scrappy pattern each year to help you turn leftover fabric into something you’ll love. After a little breather in 2026, we’re thrilled to introduce our newest design, the Sweet Woven Stars Sampler, a free pattern available exclusively at Fat Quarter Shop. The pattern uses four sizes of our Woven Star Foundation Paper for crisp, precise stars from small to large. Mix a medley of prints into each one, and no two blocks will look alike. Dig ...

Thursday did not work out as planned either, but that's OK.  I ended up doing a road trip to Sioux Falls with my sister-in-law.  

The only NEAR finish is a QOV that I've been binding this week. I have 1.5 sides left to hand stitch that binding.  But I did pick up a couple of quilts from the long armer yesterday, so more binding will be in my future.  

Den Verbena Quilt habe ich als Testnäherin für Augusto @ capaquilts im Jahr 2021 begonnen. Das Top war im November 2021 fertig und dann lag es, weil ich mit dem Quilting nicht sicher war. Augusto hatte seinen Quilt mit Linien gequiltet. dass gefiel mir gut. er hatte allerdings die Linien quer genäht. Ich fand bei diesem Muster, dass die Linien längs über die Länge des Quilts laufen sollten. Und das habe ich dann auch gemacht. Was soll ich sagen? Es wirkt gut so.

Der dunkle Stoff ist ein Leinen-Baumwoll-Mischgewebe und das schafft noch eine weitere grobere Dimension hier. 

Und hier siehst ...

I just want to say THANK YOU to those who follow the blog. While I don't know all of you personally, you are always there for me; you provide loads of support and always have great ideas. If you didn't know, you are helping motivate me to get my life in order. And I love all your comments. I love that some of you are, or have already, tackled your houses and the decluttering process; I love that you are getting off the bus one stop earlier than necessary and adding a few extra steps to your day ...

Before we continue the quilt along with Block B and assembly, there were two mistakes in the original cutting pdf on the post last Sunday. The corrected pdf is now linked. If you downloaded the cutting instructions, be sure your version has REV2 in the title, otherwise download the revised version HERE. Also, there are not very many comments on the previous post with the Quilter’s Dream giveaway, so if you missed that one, go comment. The winner will be drawn tomorrow.

Here is the block we will make today. Note that the quarter/half square triangle units are ...

This may be sad or triggering for some of you. If you find it to be too much, I don't mind if you scroll down to the dashed line and start there.

I think my posts will be few and far between for the next week or so. I am spending about eight hours a day working on Silent Auction for our church festival. It will happen a Sunday. I am spending time at the church every day, from 9am until 3:20 when I leave to pick up Roger. His school is very close to the church which is convenient. Then I spend two to three hours at home in the evening working on bid sheets. 

 Our daughter flew to California this week to teach a Grazing Essentials course and I just had to share this shot she took and her clever caption.

It was a busy week. The sewing room called my name several of the days…and unfortunately, cross stitch didn’t. Last week I showed you how far I was with my Garden Club series. I showed this picture. When I took the picture, I realized I had done the bottom of the piece in place so …
