Scrappy Saturday from Quarter-Inch Capers

I managed to get a couple of scrappy RSC blocks made this week in spite of running here and running there every day.

I don’t have tons of green like I do blue, but there’s enough to have a few choices. The dark green I used on the second star is the same one I used on my February BOM.

Here’s what is left:

One piece about 7” x 15”. Should I cut it up for another RSC block or add it to the BOM box? Uugghh. Decisions. I ended up putting it in the BOM box ...

I hope you day is filled with love and happiness that extends through the years.

Embroidered Quilt Block

The secrets of the human heart

Cannot be analyzed or sampled

No protocol or test procedure run

Can ever under sky or sun

Explain the love in humankind

No forensic evidence you will find

Of what is in the soul or mind

So let us stay outside the box

And not place love

Friday At The Casino from Quilting My Way

This morning, I had the morning to myself. It was awesome. I played my games. Then I went for my walk. Patrick came back from golfing when I was done.

We headed out to the casino. I wanted to get the chocolates that they were giving out - to those who spend way too much money gambling. lol It was a heart tin of about 18 pieces of chocolate. We played on the money we get every Friday and then spent some of the money we won about two weeks ago. So, we are still playing on the money we won ...

What I’m Reading: New Mercies from Jo's Country Junction

I told you last week that I was at my limit with reading WWII books. I might read one now and then, but I am totally on a hunt to find something else to read. Last week, I opted to go with an author I love, who had a book I hadn’t read. That went …

Saturday Sparks Link Party 706 from Pieced Pastimes

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 706!

Starting off today's party with our February view!

Snow, measured in feet.

Any trace of sun, hidden by gray clouds.

Bleak but beautiful just the same.

February 13, 2026 from Terificreations's Weblog

A post in three parts One. I love teaching color. Color is delightful, beautiful, complicated, simple, personal, unique, common, playful, as delightfully messy as mud and as wildly clean as rainbows after a summer storm. There are several things I’m doing with color right now: Showing the remake of Split Complementerity on the great pict-o-gram… Continue reading February 13, 2026

Saturday Sparks Link Party 705 from Pieced Pastimes

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 705!

Starting off today's party with a risky move!

I held off jumping into the sourdough trend for good reason.

The temptation of this oh-so delicious crusty bread can be hard to resist.

A long, cold, snowy winter broke me and yes, I caved and am now in my sourdough era.

Give me strength.

Friday Finishes from Quilting Is More Fun Than Housework

It is time to share a few more Many Hands and Many Hearts quilt finishes.

The pipeline is full so quilts march past the finish line daily.

Snowball and 9-Patch blocks - so simple but really makes a fantastic quilt. I also really like the scrappy border treatment. So clever! Thanks, Jean, for sending in the top. On the back we put a nice cuddly flannel.

This fun dinosaur quilt is made from a top and backing sent in by Kristin. Being a Stranger Things fan, I think the backing looks like demogorgons. Once you see it you can't unsee ...

Vintage Becomes New from Melva Loves Scraps

A few months ago, I saw this cute little crazy quilt block on Kelly Cline Quilting (fb) that included an embroidered piece. I love the block, and I was pretty certain that I had a pillowcase with one of these kittens on it somewhere in my "vintage items to keep" box.

This "VITK" box lives under my sewing table...

I kept thinking about it as I pieced my scrappy green wonky star blocks for my RSC (rainbow scrap challenge) quilt. I made a few dark, I made a few light... positive and negative. I was pleased with how they look.

What We Are Working On from Eagle's Wings Quilts

We’ve had a couple of really busy weeks at our Prayers and Squares group. I didn’t do a post about it last week though because there wasn’t anything to show that was new. We spent almost the entire afternoon making backs and layering 5 quilts and making the back for a 6th that didn’t get layered due to running out of time. Yesterday, however was much better for doing stuff that needed pictures. Also, I’ve been busy here at home. Janet finished this beautiful top. She picked all the fabrics based on the colours found ...

Borders, Borders, Borders! from Quiltville's Quips & Snips!

Can you see what is happening here?

If it's not perfectly clear, I've got the one big long border length I made face down on the machine bed and I am stay-stitching down both sides of the border length to anchor all of those seams and also preventing any stretch.

Piano key borders are like accordions...they really do have a lot of give, so stitching down either side just shy of 1/4'' from the edge will help with all of that.

And doing it back-side-up allows me to manage which way the seams need to go ...

Tweaking Timeless from Sew'n Wild Oaks Quilting Blog

Hello Everyone,

I've been tinkering with the Timeless design again because apparently, I just can’t leave well enough alone. If I didn’t have EQ8 software (and the faint idea of how to use it), this quilt would still be a scribble on a napkin. Mr. Joe has officially stamped the newest layout with his seal of approval and trust me; that’s no small victory. That quilt critic has standards.

I’m especially loving how the second-to-last border now looks like a little ruffly ribbon which is very “soft and floaty” instead of “I came here to ...

It's a half-square triangle day! from Crazy Quilter on a Bike!

Here's an update on several situations. After a few messages back and forth with M, it seems that if I read her text correctly, the designer will make the veil; it's my job to embroider it!! OK -- I think I can handle that. Thanks for the tips from everyone. Now I just need to find out the timing --- and she's in BC, and I'm here! But that's no issue!

As for the house? We didn't have any leaks yesterday, even though the sun was out. My towel stayed dry all day. I spoke to ...
