Binding, and a Knitting Finish
from Romany Quilting
Quilters are in two camps about quilt bindings, they either love it or hate it. I love hand stitching the binding down, it's the last job to do and then you have finished. Like this little baby donation quilt with the cozy fleecy back, all clipped up and waiting to go.
Binding time
I have a knitting finish too. Remember this? I was stitching it up back in April. Then it got put aside for a while, don't ask me why, it just happens.
Stitching the sleeves in to the body
Then once it was all stitched together ...

Stitching Stuff: Week 23 of 2026
from Life In Pieces
We've had rain and a couple of hot, humid days this week. Perfect stitching weather. Hot and humid is even less fun than being out in the rain. Playing in the sewing room was definitely the preferred activity this week.
- 15 minute days/week = 7/7 days
- 15 minute days/May = 30/31 days
- 15 minute days/June = 6/6 days
- 15 minute days/2026 = 155/157 days
- Success rate = 98.73%
June is off to a good start on the stitching front. I'm making good progress on my to do list and on my goals for the ...

Phagun
from Sew Preeti Quilts
Welcome to my stop on the Sunflower Spice Blog Hop.

| Phagun, 80" by 100" |
When Jennifer Thomas of Curlicue Creations asked whether I would like to join the BlogHop, I did not say yes. I had to see the fabrics, first.
OK, YES.
These vibrant hues cover the entire spectrum of the rainbow. The design had to be simple so that the colors could truly shine.

read moreNew Summer Block Drive
from Kat & Cat Quilts
Hello Quilters! Time to wrap up the Winter block drive here at CiL and move onto Summer. This time we are doing a disappearing nine patch block inspired from the blog Chris Knits Sews, she is doing them for a Rainbow Scrap challenge this year.
For each block you will need (9) 5" squares from:
- blue (true blue, not teal or aqua)
- white/cream
- black/grey
- (if you want inspiration, I realized it's the same color scheme as this block drive we did years ago)
Almost done.......................
from Exuberant Color
The third section of 7 columns is sewn and I only need to unpick 4 more loops for the last section of 6 columns. On the left is one of the red fabrics used in the quilt. I plan on using it for a border, size to be determined.
The William Morris fabrics are so pretty.
I have a 3 yard piece of the light fabric to the right of the red fabric and I'll use it on the back.
Yesterday was a neighborhood day. To the south was a graduation party which I was invited to. I just ...

from Gene Black an Alabama Artist
I have been playing with ideas for my altered book -errr...books since I have started a second one.
After doodling on one page, I remembered that once upon a time I made lots of ATCs (artist trading cards.) They had to be somewhere since I made many more than I traded. Looking around, there they were in an old wooden cigar box. I missed the last FFO (Friday Face Off.) So here is one that I found in my stack of cards. Do you see a face?
Spent The Day With Georgie & Mom
from Quilting My Way
This morning, I was up and ready to get ready for mom and Georgie to come over. I had to work on the cake I messed up yesterday on. I did the chocolate ganache. Then I put it in the frig till after mom left.
Mom and Georgie arrived around 10:30 am. Mom was going to bring lunch but that didn't happen, so I had to make grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch.
We finished the border on one quilt. Mom was doing the sewing on my machine. I was cutting and getting things ready to sew together. Then ...

What I’m Making: BBQ Apple Crisp
from Jo's Country Junction
Rick and I had the grill going over the weekend. Well, first we used the smoker and smoked some baked beans. Then we switched it to grill mode and made burgers. I figured being we had it running already, why not make a dessert to go with the burgers, beans, and potato salad. I did …

Spring showers!!

Above is a jelly roll quilt start. We were discussing using precuts, and this one is a fast and fun quilt to make. The pieces are 2.5 by 3.5 inches, then sewed together in connector corner fashion. This is FUN!!!

Half sewn.................
from Exuberant Color
Two sections of 7 columns are sewn together now and that is half of the quilt top. I unpicked the rest of the cut loops, and now I need to cut loops from the next strata.
I was in the basement doing a load of laundry and decided I should check the top shelf in the bathroom to see if I had any other older irons I can use. Surprise!! There was a new iron in a box. I think I must have used my expiring Kohl's cash for it when there wasn't anything else I needed. I ... read more
Friday Fun
from ... Cat Patches
Good morning, my friends. We were in and out of the grocery store in less than half an hour yesterday. It left plenty of time in the day for getting the rest of my to-do's to-done, and there was plenty of time for sewing too. Before we left, I stitched up Tiny Treasure #59. This one has satin stitch, stem stitch, lazy daisy, backstitch, and straight stitch.
