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?

Pie In The Sky-June OMG Finished

June was another busy month with a little travel, lots of house guests and some summer fun so once again, I didn’t spend much time in the sewing room. Now that I am back in business with long arm quilting, I managed to complete my One Monthly Goal for June. This quilt is Pie In The Sky, the cover quilt from Kim Diehl’s book Simple Graces.

Pie In The Sky Quilt

Originally my plan was to quilt a simple pantograph. I checked to see how the original quilt was quilted and it was freehand swirls. The instructions described the design as “cinnamon rolls” so I knew I had to add this to my machine quilting repertoire! Who doesn’t like cinnamon rolls? It was very fast and easy. With a quilt this busy, nothing would show up very well so fast and easy was perfect.

Pie In The Sky Machine Quilting

The backing is a tan vine print and I even added a label. This quilt was on my bucket list for quite awhile and I’m happy to have it finished.
