Lets Sew Quilt Along

Posted on July 1, 2019 | 20 comments

Block 8, or the third block in Segment 2 of the Lets Sew Quilt Along is a cute pincushion design by Sherry Shish of Powered by Quilting.

The block is as easy, or embellished, as you would like!

I chose to machine applique my tomato pincushion.  I used a silver metallic thread to machine stitch the pin shafts.  

I also drew and machine appliqued a strawberry to the pincushion.  Stitching by hand, I embellished with a stem stitch and a chain stitch.

I may use buttons for the pin heads after putting this project together.  

Or I may not.

Block 7, or the second block in Segment 2 of the Lets Sew Quilt Along is an adorable iron design called Its A Pressing Issue by Karen at Tu-Na Quilts.

Once I cut the pieces, the iron went together beautifully!  My biggest difficulty is pushing past the colors and textures that I always want to use, and create something out of the box and fun!

My block needs a good press, but I am happy with it!

Sew Let’s Quilt Along

Posted on May 29, 2019 | 12 comments

I have finished the first block in Segment 2 of the Sew Let’s Quilt Along.

If you are not a quilter, then you may be wondering what the block is.

So I have put a few binder clips on my block for you to see.  They are like clothespins.  They come in different colors and different sizes, and are handy for all sorts of crafty things.  

On my block, you see orange binder clips holding the binding in place before sewing it to the quilt.

I chose the lilac fabric because it reminds me of free motion quilting and I already had it in my stash.
