QuiltsBy.me

This is one of my favorites. I had a bunch of fat quarters that I didn't know what to use them for. So, when I saw the tutorial on making this quilt, I pulled out my fat quarters and put them to use.

Spring Time

I saw someone's window pane quilt with a Winter panel and was inspired to make one for myself. When I found this fabric It was offered as a kit. The kit didn't have this window look to it so I had to go to another site to download the pattern.

Turkey Table Runner

Pictured in the Quilting Quickly magazine, I made four of these and sold them all at my church's craft sale. Each table runner is made with just one charm pack, yardage for the cream background and border fabric. I used a blanket stitch on my machine to stitch down the turkeys.

Won't You Be My Neighbor?

My 7 yo old daughter and I made this together. She picked out the houses and matching roofs. She also helped iron on the doors and windows. I had some trouble figuring out how to sew the half hexies together, but I figured it out. It's a very cute pattern and we love the look.

HST Star Quilt

This is a pattern from Laundry Basket Quilts. A friend and I agreed on civil war prints and each made half of the HSTs. So it was a big surprise taking out all of her blocks and seeing what colors she chose. I tried to chose quilting designs that would accent the star. I did microstipeling on the background, and quilted the star in straight lines accenting the angles. The applique is raw egde finished with a zig zag stitch in clear thread. This was a ton of fun and very rewarding. I have it hanging up in my living room.

Swirly Log Cabin

I made this Curved Log Cabin quilt for my children. I used the creative grids log cabin tool and found it very easy to use and put the whole thing together. I quilted it into 4 quadrants with a walking foot. It was a lot of fun to make and hassle free since everything was squared up so well. I do suggest using a design wall to figure out how the blocks go. My kids love it and are curled up on the couch with it now.

My Very First Ever Completed Quilt Top

I had planned on this being a lot easier than it actually was. I am very surprised that it worked because about halfway through I wasn’t so sure, and I was about to start over completely. I began with the Monster Scribbles II panel, cutting out the individual images and piecing them together with some coordinating orange stripe fabric, and black bats. But, as it turns out, with this panel, no line is straight and no corner is square. Hence my major dilemma. After some help, and a lot of ironing and steaming, I was finally able to finish the top. Now I need to machine quilt it and bind it, and just hope I can get it all done before Halloween! I thought I was starting my first Quilting project with a super easy piece, but I think it was much harder than I should have done for my first try. Luckily my second quilt topper attempt is going much smoother. I am hoping that top will finish nicely on all sides, but we have yet to see… More on that later. For now, Oooh and Aaaah at my Little Monster and my first Quilt Top for him. - October 2012 So… I missed Halloween, or maybe I’m just early for the 2013 Halloween season. I started this much earlier than Halloween with every intention of finishing it at least a couple weeks before so my little guy could enjoy it. But I have the worst luck with class signup at my local store – almost every class I sign up for gets canceled due to low enrollment (just me) or one class they changed the time and date on me. And those 2 classes happened to be the machine quilting and binding classes – the two that I needed to finish this. Well – I worked my way through it on my own. Yes, I realize there is a lot to be desired, and I imagine over time I will need to go back and fix some things, but I did it. All by myself. It wasn’t easy, but for now it’s finished. And the best part – my little guy loves it, he’s slept with it every night since I gave it to him. - January 2013

Rainbow Batiks Jelly Roll Quilt

I was finally able to get some photos of my very first finished quilt – my Moda Rainbow Batiks Jelly Roll Quilt. I know this isn’t quite sound logic, but I consider both the Halloween Quilt for Riley and this Rainbow Batiks Jelly Roll quilt my ‘first’ finished quilts. I started them both about the same time, and though the Batiks quilt was finished first, the Halloween quilt was start to finish done by me. Yes it has some issues, but I will be that much better next time! Anyways – this Jelly Roll quilt was fun to make, and I have plans to make others with this same pattern. And as for the back – I made a mistake and cut one section too small. So in order to correct it I had to get another Jelly Roll, and I used the strips for the back of the quilt, and then filled in the sides with a blue and a pink fabric from the line that I liked, added a narrow and wider border to the front, and a rainbow splatter for the binding. Considering this is my first ever quilt, I think it turned out pretty well. The colors of the Rainbow Batiks are so rich and bright and are difficult to capture – you must see this fabric line in person to really appreciate it! Looking forward to my next one like this! - February 2013

Pretty in pink pinwheels

My daughter will be 4 in a couple of weeks and since I've been making quilts for at least 2 years and have gotten comfortable with my craft I asked her if she wanted a quilt for her birthday or something else and she chose a quilt (smart girl!) I've had unused pink rose colored muslin sitting in my fabric stash for quite awhile and decided that to be the background the pinwheels. I used one charm pack that I had but then threw in bits of other odd fabric that I had that matched the charm pack color scheme. I was even able to use a blue and white duck fabric that belonged to my grandmother who just passed away last year. Had to cut around the holes and aged bits on that fabric but it will definitely be an heirloom piece now which makes me happy for my girls to have family history to pass down since my grandmotner was a quilter as well, but she had 6 children and numerous grandchildren so I probably won't get one of the quilts she made but knowing I was able to incorporate some of her old fabric makes me happy! The one piece of the quilt which I did not pick, I let my 3 year old girl pick because it's her birthday present, was the backing. She picked a my little pony fabric from our local fabric store. I'm sure when she's older it will be something we will laugh about and be a good memory.

Lemon Poppy JRR2

I learned to sew on this quilt. Everything involved was new to me- from using a rotary cutter, making 1/4" seam allowances, putting on a border (or three) sandwiching, quilting, using a walking foot, and the binding, From start to finish, I looked up each new step as I came to it or watched a video on how to do it. I was able to complete the quilt before Christmas 2014 and give it to my kiddo as a present. He loves this quilt and I love that it is keeping him snuggly warm in our bitter cold winters here. This quilt is a keeper and will stay in our family.
