I come from a line of sewists - from my great-grandmother who sewed as necessity in a factory, to my nana who was a magical quilter and artist, to my mother who can create a wide variety of sewed objects (but who does not quilt). Each of these women have taught me small parts of their hobby and I'm trying to figure out the rest.

Sawtooth Star T-Shirt Quilt
This project saw me through the early days of Covid quarantine. The quilt was a surprise graduation gift using t-shirts from elementary through high school. Because of the extreme variation in sizes of the t-shirts, I knew that I didn't want to attempt the typical t-shirt quilt (columns and rows of squared shirts).

Pot Holders
My daughter wanted to make pot holders. We didn't want to free motion quilt each one individually so we made 36 blocks using the inner portion of one of Jenny's blocks. We sewed them into a 6 block x 6 block quilt top with no boarders and put it on the longarm with a wide back, a layer of 80/20 cotton batting, and a layer of metalized reflective batting. My daughter used a pantograph to do the edge-to-edge quilting. When finished I cut the blocks apart and added the binding to the 36 blocks. 18 of the blocks were squared to 11 1/2 inches square and 18 were cut and squared to 10 inches square.
