Does the new Hustle and Bustle fabric by @official_basicgrey on a Grunge Hits the Spot background put you in the holiday spirit?

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?

Framed Squares Quilt Finished

I finally had a chance to finish the binding on this quilt.  It is a simple framed squares pattern made from a matching jelly roll and charm pack of Moda’s Social Club fabric.

The quilting is a quick and easy pantograph called Mexican Carpet by Dawna Sanders.

I was working on the binding last week when my small group got together and they asked for the cutting dimensions on the blocks so here they are.  You will end up with a 10” finished block.  My quilt has 42 blocks, set 6 x 7.  Unfortunately, charm packs have 42 squares and jelly rolls have 40 strips.  If you want to make 42 blocks, you will have to purchase an additional 1/4 yard of fabric in order to have enough to cut the framing strips for two more blocks.  You will need about 1-1/4 yards of fabric for the inner frame (my white) and 5/8 yard for binding (plus 1/4 yard if you’re making 42 blocks). Piecing is simple log cabin style courthouse steps–sew sides, then top and bottom for each round.

This is just a fun, easy project when you’re looking for something that doesn’t require much thinking.  It also looks great made from scraps!!
