Overwhelmed by WIP’s Wednesday…
I had to take a blood test at the Dr this morning, and took some quilty books to look at while waiting for the hour to pass… As I did so, I reminded myself that I have several unfinished projects… I made a list… this is stuff that’s already been cut/started (but just fabric/yarn purchased/saved […]
Little Killa quilt
This was one of the last minute quilts made for the RK booth… I got the fabric the week of market, so I had to design, piece, quilt and bind in a single day. This adorable fabric is called Little Kukla (which autocorrects to Killa on an iphone, hence the title of this post). I […]
Market time
I got my postage stamp quilt top done just in time. Quilting it will have to wait till June, as I’ve been informed that the craze of market has begun. This week I have to paper piece a quilt top: Design, sew, and write the pattern for a duvet cover; make a clutch bag or […]
Pre-wash
Here’s the quilt for our baby boy, as designed by me and the Bean. C bought me an early birthday present, a walking foot, so this was my first time using it. LOVE. here’s the back, pieced with scraps. here’s the oops on the back. just so I don’t get a swelled head. here’s the […]
Quilters Linen Chopsticks quilt
I finished this one late at night, so only have midnight pics. The purple and tan quilters linen from last week got turned into this quilt. Chopsticks by Jaybird Quilts. I
Weekend prep…
I’m super excited (and grateful) to get to go away for a sewing weekend with some friends (and some hopefully-soon-to-be-friends that I’ve never met)… I have lots of plans of what I’m going to work on, so to make things go more smoothly (and make sure I bring the right supplies/amounts), I’ve been pre-cutting here, […]
Baby boy quilt-in-progress, take 2
First, she sorted… (Well, first I sewed, THEN she sorted) Then we played. This one is much smaller, probably 45×55, so it’ll actually be for the baby. But it’s the same fabric line as D’s quilt, so they’ll coordinate. Cause clearly my house is all about coordination (not!) C just ordered me an early birthday […]
Finished quilt…
D requested the black sashing with yellow (perle cotton) stitching to simulate roads…. I pieced the back with the leftover big pieces…. It’s not super noticeable, because I switched thread color A LOT, but each block is FMQ’ed differently… sort of a practice sampler for me… the different quilting is most noticeable from the back, but […]
Its growing…
Almost as slowly quickly as my belly. what is it about quilts in progress that’s is sooooo attractive to kitties?
Tangerine Tango WIP
I don’t think I’ll meet the March deadline for the Tangerine Tango Challenge, but I’m having fun working with these paper pieced bits. I wasn’t sure I’d like it, because basting isn’t super fun, but I’ve got a bunch basted now, and I like whip stitching them together, and I LOVE taking out the basting […]
