I love the fabrics in this quilt and they were just random fabrics from my stash. The pattern is #theellaquilt by @kitchentablequilting. I may have to hang this in my family room until it finds a new home.

Today's prompt is pressing matters. I love flat bl Today's prompt is pressing matters. I love flat blocks and these three items are my essentials for achieving that: white fluffy bath towel, cheap Black & Decker iron that steams like crazy, and a Jackson's Woodworks square clapper.

I have a wool pressing mat, but I like the bath towel better. It has enough nap to "grab" the fabrics for a super flat press and it can be tossed in the washer and dryer.

One of my cherished quilts is one I didn't make. T One of my cherished quilts is one I didn't make. This album quilt was made by members of a club I ran for many years when I had a brick and mortar shop. Several members continued to meet in my home monthly until COVID hit. 

It is special to me because it is a reminder of what is important; the friendships, camaraderie, and encouragement that developed within the group.

This super scrappy quilt is one of my favorites fo This super scrappy quilt is one of my favorites for a couple of reasons. First it is proof that any fabric works when you cut it small enough and second I pieced it on a little mini retreat with a couple of friends. The pattern is Rectangle Wrangle by Bonnie Hunter.

I love, love, love scrap quilts, the more fabrics the better, and that's how I justify buying all the fabric I do.

This particular quilt was chosen for today's prompt because tomorrow it will be on its way to Poland along with nine others from my "quilt room" (see day 3 prompt).

Lesson learned. I could write a book on all the th Lesson learned. I could write a book on all the things I've learned through quilting, but one I can't seem to get through my head is that I don't like foundation piecing, paper piecing, or hand piecing.  Slow stitching is a concept I can't wrap my head around.

This String Spiderweb was started at a retreat so I jumped on the bandwagon without thinking it through. I have a bunch of these units made but no interest in continuing. As I was snapping the photo though, I had an idea. Stay tuned.

Are there quilting techniques or methods you don't enjoy?

DWM: Another Nine Patch

Last week I sorted through another bin of UFO’s and found this blue and yellow nine patch.  I always love blue and yellow quilts (and nine patches!) so I worked a bit sewing the rows together.  All the blocks are made so it shouldn’t take too long to turn it into a quilt. 

BY Nine

I like that the design continues into the border without any extra work.  The border is also one of those great navy fabrics that are so hard to find anymore.  My goal this week is to finish this one.

    Congratulations on being the first to post on DWM this week. Isn’t it great when you come across a group of blocks and presto!, the ideal way to set them pops into your head?! Before you know it, you have a flimsy.

    I love nine patches, too.. and blue and yellow! And it’s a bonus to find something that is so close to being a completed top! Yours will be so pretty.

    Very pretty! (You talk about sorting through your UFOs in bins. I have visions of a huge warehouse full of bins full of UFOs! What fun!)

    Your bin must be overflowing…..it’s amazing what we find in those bins. The quilt looks great…..I still have a blue and yellow one from the first interntional quilt club. I need to get it out and get it quilted.

    Thanks for sharing. Mary Pat
