More June Bee Blocks

1 Jun

Today, I made my June blocks for the Vintage Sheet Quilting Bee.  Evelyn asked for wonky log cabins or courthouse squares, so I made her one of each.  I think courthouse square blocks are a bit faster, because I can sew, iron and cut 2 sides at a time.  I am big on pressing a seam before sewing over ...

Liberated Wedding Rings

28 May

Alison asked for Liberated Wedding Ring blocks this month for "Bee Happy".  I've never seen this block before and I always love a new challenge.  She mailed beautiful fabrics in soft colors to make a quilt for her bed.  I think her choices will make for a very soothing night's sleep.

Liam’s Quilt

21 May

It's time again for the Blogger's Quilt Festival! I haven't had much time to make many quilts since the last festival, but I do have a quilt that is near and dear in my heart.   When I was pregnant, last summer, I made my son a quilt for his crib.  I labored over that one for hours and now it hangs, ...

Progress and Process

17 May

43 down, 57 to go! I am really loving how this quilt is turning out.  This was the first time I laid the blocks out and saw them all together.  I am not sure if I'll keep the Twiddletails "Geese in the Forest" layout, or just do my own.  I am thinking I may turn some of the blocks so that the geese ...
