Design Wall Monday...3.3.2014

I've started sewing the Coaches's quilts.

My go*to pattern of recent:  Quilting Assistant's Mock Trip Around the World.

I placed the medallion off center for an *Offsides*!  little hockey humor there, friends!  :)

WIP Wednesday 2.26.2014

Apple Blossom Time is now a flimsy!

Yeah!

Unfortunately, it is too big for my design wall and also a tad big for the hallway.  :)

This is about the best picture of it...

I ordered a new panto for this quilt ~ Apple Blossom by Lorien Quilting ~ but it hasn't arrived yet.

I will put the Apple Blossom Time aside and start working on the coaches' quilts.  :)

Design Wall Monday 2.17.2014

I'm starting a new quilt.  This one is promised to my SIL, Carol.  She has been waiting patiently for me to make it.  :)

It's Elsie Campbell's Apple Blossom Time quilt found in her book, Fun with Nine Patches and Snowballs.

Here is one completed apple blossom.  I think my blossoms are going to be wonky!  That will only add to the charm!

Whoop! Whoop! 2.07.2014

I did it!


I quilted and bound my Valentine place mats!

Inspiration found here.

All the fabric was from the stash.  :)

I found a little bit of St. Patrick's Day to cobble together backing.  My attempt at making the place mats reversible.




I'm thinking that the St. Patrick's side will need a shamrock or *something* appliqued to perk them up a bit!

I had the biggest chunk of the Irish Blessing.
