Splash of Color QAL - Blocks and Stash Report


I have my pile of blocks all finished for the splash of color qal. I am just loving them! The white prints with the rainbow of color is so pretty.



I also have these huge black and white with yellow blocks done.  It's going to be a queen size, but there are only 25 blocks!


Are you quilting along?

October Stash Report

This has been my busiest month sewing this year. And it was starting to take it's tole on me.  But I feel I am catching up with things.  However, more custom orders usually means more fabric purchases. I would really like to get to 200 out for the year...

In:   70
Out: 82
Net: 126.5 out

Boomerang Pillow Shams and a Minecraft Quilt




I finished the boomerang pillow shams this week. The block arrangement is slightly different in each pillow.  I made the blocks 6" so that the pillow would be the correct size.


I also finished this Minecraft quilt. This one is different because it has 4 new blocks in it, all bad guys.  Bad guys seem to be popular for some reason!  You can find the pattern here.   Email me for the pdf pattern. $10.99

Queen Size Boomerang Quilt

90 x 90

Another paper pieced boomerang quilt finished! I never thought I would be making another one of these quilts.  Fortunately, I learned a few things from the last paper pieced quilt I made. It is still super difficult to get the points to end up in the correct location.


The background color in this quilt is Kona Parchment even though it looks a bit gray. The colors were picked by my customer and I think she did a great job.  Quilting is a simple organic wavy lines which looks great on this quilt.


I'm making two pillow shams to go with this quilt, but they aren't finished yet.  Hopefully the fabric will get here today and I can get them done!

Splash of Color QAL - cutting done



My first quilt for the Splash of Color QAL is black and white with scrappy rainbow squares. This on has lots of little pieces but it is going to be so cute!


My second quilt is this black and white with yellow has large pieces and will go together very quickly!  Oh, I did change the yellows to just the one on the top of the pile. I think it will unify the pattern more.

I am excited to get working on these two quilts!

UT T-Shirt Quilt


Any UT fans out there? This is the last of the 5 memory quilts for my friend. This one was fun to make. I really like the two color theme of this quilt.


Look at that double pocket!  I only quilted a single line under the flap on the lower pocket because that piece was too big not to quilt. There are two pockets in this quilt. I cut the white TEXAS strip off one of the sleeves and put in there even though it couldn't be centered.


This was my own design based on the shirts she gave me. I like the linear lines in different size columns. This one is one of my favorites!
