Sometimes a really, really damaged quilt is still incredibly beautiful. This is one of those times.
The quilt was sent to me for assessment and my thoughts about what to do with it. It has much fabric damage, both faded colors and lots of tattered, dangling, and missing fabric.
I think the tan fabric was likely dyed with an early synthetic dye. Fading of colors to this kind of tan, often called dun, was common with the experimental new dyes in the later part of the 1800s, as the fabric industry tried to find new dyes that were stronger colored ...

Not every piece of art has to be a blockbuster. Sometimes doing little projects can be satisfying, too. Over the past week I have been inspired to create mini bits by what turned up when I went hunting for a missing quilt. I am ashamed to say there’s no method to my quilt storage system other than compatibility between quilt size and storage container. A quilt may be rolled up, under my bed, in a tote, or in a big black trunk. So I looked through a lot of stuff before I found what I sought. Along the way ...

read moreAnother very old project... I will confess that I used to be a swap addict! The swap blocks were from before the high speed internet since they were made in 2006!
The idea for this swap was to prepare some blocks with 3 raw edge hearts applique on top of each other. The hearts have an indent on the side and in the middle to be sliced up. This is a variation on the "bull eye pattern".
After the blocks had been swapped, we were supposed to cut them in 4 (in half vertically and horizontally). Next step was to ... read more
I’m on track stitching my appliqué hearts. My 100 blocks are prepared for needle-turn stitching. I’ve finished the first 10 blocks & met the check-in today. I’m using a new needle-turn appliqué technique on these blocks which I learned from a quilt friend. The appliqué shape is traced onto the back of the fabric. The […]

I have been cleaning my sewing space/studio the last couple of days... my least favorite thing to do in my sewing room. I'm much better at messing it up. I came across some left over blocks from a red and white quilt that I made years ago. I contemplated throwing the blocks out.... but couldn't. So I made them into a cute set of heart shaped coasters. All you need for this fun project is some scrap red, white, pink fabric... (you can make your hearts out of any colors!) Backing fabric, scrap pieces of batting, pinking ...
