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: Double Nine Patch

There are a few quilt patterns I love and use over and over.  I could probably spend the rest of my life just making nine patches, log cabins and star designs.  There is so much possibility with those that I never get tired of them.  Awhile back I was looking at my stash and challenging myself to make a scrap quilt every month.  In my recent Road to Llano quilt I used an old favorite fabric.  When we had our shop there was a scrappy double nine patch hanging in the hallway that had that same fabric in the border. It wasn’t my quilt but I always wanted to replicate it.  So I thought about making a nine patch quilt every month.  Then I carried it a step further and had a goal of having a Double Nine Patch ready to post on 9/9.

I was successful on only part of this goal—I finished the Double Nine Patch but it wasn’t from stash.  When I was drawing this up in EQ7 I used fabric from Moda’s Wintergreen line and liked it so much that’s what I used for this quilt.  I just love the timeless look of this pattern, so I’ll just have to make another one from scraps!

D9P-2

If you would like to make this quilt, the pattern is posted here.  It’s an easy one to figure out, but it will save you the trouble of doing the math. LOL!  I also have a couple of kits available here for this quilt in my little Etsy shop if you’d like to make one just like this!

Congrats to Angie in TN who won last week’s give-away.  Check back tomorrow for a chance to win more quilting goodies.  I’ll be having a give-away every week in September.

    Cool idea to make double 9-patch for Today 🙂 There is still time for me to make one. How easy is that when I have some 9-patches already in my orphan pile. We quilter’s are such enablers…
