Butterfly Garden – Finished!

Posted on March 10, 2019 | 16 comments

I began this project in April 2018 with one of my granddaughters in mind. She will be receiving it for her birthday this year.

I am very happy with the quilt, and I think she will be too!

I know that you can’t see the quilting. It is quilted all over with bees. I used a cute bee pantograph from Urban Elementz.

I also used the same fabrics that I used to piece Sugar Town…a birthday gift for the close cousin of this granddaughter.

Since it was an OMG project, I posted updates here, here, here, here, and here.

March OMG 2019

Posted on March 2, 2019 | 11 comments

I know the cat lovers (there are a lot of us) will appreciate my goal for this month.

I need some kitty quilts for my living room chairs (Or do they belong to the kitty?). She has her own beds (2 of them) and her own tower with another bed, but she would rather curl up in the chairs. I know that she likes a soft quilt, so it is past time to give her one or two of her own.

I am using this simple block:

There are several setting designs, depending upon how you turn the block.

I’ve chosen the following two settings:

These quilts will be 24″ when finished.

And that is the goal for March…to sandwich the tops, quilt them, and bind them.

I am linking up with OMG at Elm Street Quilts. It will be fun and inspiring to visit the other bloggers who have linked up and see what they are working on.

Fabric Basket

I have a new favorite fabric basket tutorial. Tessa Marie Walker calls her basket a thread catcher, but I made mine to hold bobbins and feet for my Juki (not pictured).
