Perfect 10 Sampler Quilt Along – Week 6

  Week 6 of  Fat Quarter Shop’s Perfect 10 Sampler Quilt Along and I’m wondering…where has the time flown? I’ve enjoyed working on such simple blocks. Really. Sometimes, simple and straight forward is just nice. As we near the end of…

  • So... somewhere between this morning (when I originally wished everyone a happy Friday and posted this pic) it disappeared, I guess, because it's definitely not here, lol! Well, better late than never - Happy Friday everyone and hope you're ready for an awesome weekend! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Today on my blog we're all about the Churn Dash, because that's Block 4 of the @fatquartershop Threadology Quilt Along! I'd visit even more, but I just got home from a lovely day of shopping which included Target and Homegoods....time to unpack my bags, then head to the sewing room. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Does anyone else look through all these gorgeous quilt pictures on IG and immediately want to start about a dozen new projects? And I wonder why I have so many UFOs... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #makeawish #threadologyquiltalong #littlesnippetsfabric #bonnieandcamillefabric #bonnieandcamille #cottonway #thimbleblossoms #showmethemoda #modafabrics #fabric #fabrics #modalove #fatquartershop #fqs #fqsfun #fqs #sewing #sewingproject #sew #sewalong #quilt #quilting #quilts #quiltalong #qal #quiltblock #quilter #Quiltsofinstagram #makesomething #creativehappylife
  • I'm not sure how I managed to complete projects before the days of design boards, Frixion markers, and Alphabitties from the Fat Quarter Shop. They are just a few of the "must have" tools in my quilting toolbox. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There are days I think about my grandma, and how she cut and pieced quilts every day. By hand. Cardboard templates, a pencil to outline a block, scissors to cut them.... she would LOVE rotary cutters and mats, not to mention the community of quilting together with people all over the world through the internet. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ (insert contented sigh) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am very blessed. I might not think that later if I'm pulling out the trusty seam ripper for something, but for now, it feels pretty good to be playing in my sewing room with all my cool tools, quilting along on block four of my Threadology quilt which I'll share on my blog tomorrow. Anyone else with some favorite quilting tools? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #makeawish #threadologyquiltalong #littlesnippetsfabric #bonnieandcamille #cottonway #thimbleblossoms #showmethemoda #modafabrics #fabric #fabrics #modalove #fatquartershop #fqs #fqsfun #fqs #sewing #sewingproject #sew #sewalong #quilt #quilting #quilts #quiltalong #qal #quiltblock #quilter #Quiltsofinstagram #makesomething #creativehappylife
  • #IGQuiltFest Day 5 and we're sharing our favorite notions. Oh my gosh! Talk about decision paralysis! I am a GADGET GIRL to the extreme. I want every ruler, every colored mat, every new cutter, you name it, but how to choose a favorite? My seam ripper, lol?. I ended up choosing my homemade design boards, probably the least awe inspiring, but constantly in use. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I wrote a blog post last week about how I make them, inspired by an @beelori1 tutorial from years ago (hers are gorgeous). I have a ton of them in several sizes, right up to my "design wall" that measures 60" x 80" - all constructed of cardboard or foam board covered in batting. I love being able to build projects on them and then set them to the side if I choose to work on something else, keeping everything neat and in place. They stack atop each other, as well, which saves space in my small sewing room. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #quilt #quilting #quilts #quiltalong #qal #quiltblock #quilter #quiltsofinstagram #quiltdesignboard #favoritenotion #sew #sewing #handmade #sewingproject #sewalong #makeomething #handmade #prettylittlethings
  • I'm getting a late start thanks to a head cold over the weekend, but I'm jumping into Day 4 of #igquiltfest. Today's prompt is Fast Finish, and I don't think there's any faster finish than my quilt-as-you-sew Fat Quarter Table Runners. I've made dozens over the years for gifts, store models, you name it. Truth be told, though, in our house we call them "cat quilts." 🐱 Seldom will you find one on the table, as they're scattered across ottomans, the back of the sofa, a chair....perfect size for the cats to lay on something pretty, but keep the cat hair off the furniture and easy to wash. Since each table runner top is only four fat quarters, I don't even mind when they wear out. In case any of you want a fast finish this week I thought it would be fun to offer all PDF versions of my Fat Quarter Table Runner patterns on sale for only $5 this week. There is a link to my shop on my website, which is linked in my profile. No discount code required for the $5 patterns. The sale price is good until March 11. If you make one, I'd love to see it! Tag me and add #fatquartertablerunner.

  • It's Shooting Squares, block three of the @fatquartershop Threadology Quilt Along! I love watching the blocks pile up, just waiting for their moment to be part of a quilt by June. I don't know about you, but time is zipping by on this side of the screen! Hard to believe it's already March. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I took some shortcuts with my blocks, cutting a few steps from the sewing process. If you'd like to read more about it, stop by my blog to read the post (link in profile). If you decide to try my method, let me know what you think! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #makeawish #threadologyquiltalong #littlesnippetsfabric #bonnieandcamillefabric #bonnieandcamille #cottonway #thimbleblossoms #showmethemoda #modafabrics #fabric #fabrics #modalove #fatquartershop #fqs #fqsfun #fqs #sewing #sewingproject #sew #sewalong #quilt #quilting #quilts #quiltalong #qal #quiltblock #quilter #Quiltsofinstagram #makesomething #creativehappylife
  • In like a lion and out like a lamb! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Not today! Gorgeous weather today, sun shining, no wind, grilled chicken outdoors for lunch. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tomorrow's forecast: Cloudy with snow. Some sleet or freezing rain possible. Low 16F. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I see a lot of sewing and staying warm indoors on this weekend's schedule! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #lovekansasweather #monthlymarker #colorlove #bonnieandcamillefabric #showmethemoda #modafabrics #modalove #quilt #quilting #quilts #quilter #colormegreen

  • One new cardboard / duct tape quilt block design board complete, despite numerous interruptions.

  • is it crazy that I'm as excited about the cardboard box as I am about what's inside? I'll be cutting it up, adding some batting, then duct tape the edges to make some extra large design boards for my quilt blocks right after I open it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #cardboardfetish #quiltblockdesignboard #quilt #quilting #quilt #quiltblock #quilter #quiltsofinstagram #makeomething #handmade #prettylittlethings #amazonprime
  • It's really, really, REALLY cold and dreary outside, which makes it a great day to take pictures for my blog, but I keep getting photo bombed...🐱📸 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #catsandquilts #catsofinstagram #furryfriend #catstagram #rescuecat #noboundaries #makeawish #threadologyquiltalong #littlesnippetsfabric #bonnieandcamillefabric
