Double Slice-daughters 1st quilt top

When our daughter (almost 50) said she wanted to make a quilt with some Christmas fabrics she bought long ago, I suggested Jenny’s Double Slice. As her first quilt top ever I thought this wouldn’t be too stressful for her, because the only seams that need to match were the block seams, when joining the rows. I am so proud of her! I quilted and put the binding on and now waiting for her to see. I am always unsure of thread color. I didn’t have a bright red, so I had to use a maroon color. I think it is ok and when it’s washed, the stitches will sink more. It came out 55x72 inches after quilting. Oh, I also told daughter that her outer border looks like lace!-lol There is a YouTube video but it won’t let me add the link here so https://youtu.be/jxC-0T5lXw4 Type in Double Slice quilt tutorial by Missouri Star and it should come up on YouTube search.

Periwinkle Squared

This was a triple play and it was Misty’s. The only thing that I did different, I didn’t use the papers.

Halloween

Needed a project to take to the hills. Took a layer cake and then found the strip in my stash. Have been wanted to make this pattern with patriotic so this was a “practice”. Found the fleece with bats at Joanns. My daughter loved it so gave it to her. She proudly displayed it. :)

Autumn Quilt

I made this quilt for my great room using a couple of layer cakes, matching charm pack and one of those "Cake Mix" paper patterns and quilted it on my Q'nique. I'm pretty happy with the result but don't think I'll mess with the paper cake mixes again...seems like more trouble than it's worth.

Box in a Box in a Box Quilt

I had this fabric line that I absolutely love. Kinda modern-ish, and the colors seemed retro... and I had no idea on what I wanted to do with it... until I looked up "square quilt patterns free layer cake". And TAAADAAA! This quilt block was MADE for this fabric line! Fabric Line: Quotation by Zen Chic for Moda Quilt Block: Framed Quilt by Ann Ferguson Quilts AND I added a black 1 1/2 inch border to make the colors really POP!

And so it begins…

I have wanted to learn for years, so I started buying but - not doing. In late 2020 after a year of enforced retirement, thanks COVID, i finally cut some blocks and sewed them together, again, thanks COVID! I didn’t know what to do with the blocks so I out them aside and started cutting and sewing again. Last week I came across a Jenny tutorial and went to work with the original blocks. Even though this is technically my third top, to me it is the first because these are the blocks that got me started. I sewed my columns together and then my rows but next time I will do rows then columns. And, with no fear at all cut that thing into three pieces! After sewing them together I had a hard time finding all the mistakes and just sat and looked at it and cried-for a long time! I let fear of not being perfect keep me from making anything at all. Now at almost 78 I have fabric and kits to make about 20 quilt tops. I haven’t tried the actual quilting part yet but I now have a goal, I want to make a top for each of my children and their children…only seven to go.

Wonky Strawberry Bee Quilt

My sister passed away in 2020 from Covid . She was my quilting buddie who loved strawberries. Now I'm teaching her daughter. She loves bees. So, finding bee and strawberry fabric by Strawberry Honey fabric from Riley Blake. I wanted it to be cuddly and comforting for her daughter, so I backed it in Shannon Cuddle banana Hyde. With very light wt. batting, it is perfect. She loves it and brings happy memories of her mom.

Stained glass window

I bought the florographix online to make a quilt for my stepson(23). When I received it I realised there was way to much pink in it for a man but I didn’t want to waste it. I started sewing using the stars & stitches pattern. As I put it together I realised how cool it was looking & started seeing my youngest daughter (27) with it. Just waiting for lockdown to end so I can organise a long arm quilter.. I think this needs something special not just straight lines from my machine :)

My first free motion on a long arm

I had a few blocks left over from a large bed quilt, which provided the perfect opportunity to experiment with free motion quilting. I love the way it turned out. And it is the perfect size when I need to nap on the sofa!
