Charming from Becca's Crazy Projects

I've finished the majority of the piecing and this is where I'm at. No rhyme or reason with this one. The goal was to sew two bricks together and repeat until I had my units. Then, sew those into rows. Then join the rows. I like the chaos in this one. I will add a border and it will be ready for quilting. 

Recipe: cut 504 bricks that measure 2.5" by 4.5" (Accuquilt has a die for that). Sew two together. Repeat until you have 252 units. Sew 14 units together in a row. Make 18 ...

Charming from Becca's Crazy Projects

A while back I cut a bunch of 5" charm squares in half. I've been slowly sewing the resulting bricks into larger units and trimming down to 4.5" squares. This is the result of some of that work. I've since started sewing them into rows but don't have a photo to share of that step, yet. This would have been quicker if I had used my Accuquilt. Ah, well, I'm making slow progress and there isn't anything wrong with that.

On Saturday I dropped off fifteen quilts at Annapolis Quilts for Kids. That's the lost batch I will drop off this year. I will get a couple more quilted before the end of the year. This is my most productive year yet with well over 100 quilts quilted for Annapolis Quilts for Kids. I don't think I will reach 150 but it will be close.

Better Borders from Becca's Crazy Projects

Have you had this happen? When you add the borders and they just end up wavy? Yeah, me, too. I know how to fix this problem and it still happens. This isn't going to be a post about how to prevent this from happening. You can certainly find loads of videos on how to properly cut and attach borders.  
I straighened that border out when I basted. 
In the end, it worked out okay. Just don't do this to your long arm quilter.

Charity quilting from Becca's Crazy Projects

This is one of the quilts I made using blocks made with the 2.5" by 4.5" bricks. The blocks finish at 12" so nine of them makes a great charity quilt.
I didn't add borders because the top would end up wider than the backing fabric without piecing. If I don't have piece a backing, I won't.  

I dropped these off with Annapolis Quilts for Kids in October.
