Bad Girl Quilt #2 – Quilt Reveal

Bad Girl Quilt #2 – Quilt Reveal

  I finished my second Bad Girl quilt (pattern releases Wednesday!).  This time it’s in wintery blue Essex linens.  It’s got some great textures.  And those red roses in the low volume peeking out are making me squeal. Here was my first Bad Girl quilt, and you can see some of my testers versions here. …

Pulled this one from my basket of rescue quilts 💕. She’s scrappy, pink, and pieced into these giant hexagons that I couldn’t stop staring at. The top had some little holes, but instead of “fixing” them, I just quilted right over so the story stayed in place.Now she’s sturdy, soft, and finished, with a seafoam binding and chunky pink stitches to cheer things on. Not perfect, but full of history and charm. You can watch the video of me finishing this quilt on my website today.#rescuequilt #quiltswithstories
Remember that big scorch mark I left on my wool ma Remember that big scorch mark I left on my wool mat? 😭 Y’all came through with so many tips, and @gina_tell_threadgraffiti shared the winning solution. Just put hydrogen peroxide on an old towel, lay it over the stain, and iron on top. The burn mark lifted right out, like magic. It even works on fabric stains and scorch marks too. I’m so grateful for this amazing quilting community 💕Beautiful gorgeous wool mat from @novodonquilting

I don’t usually make pouches, but I had the urge I don’t usually make pouches, but I had the urge to try something different. Quilted a simple grid on Wild Bloom Drama and stitched it up into these little quilted pouches. And honestly… I’m kind of obsessed. 💕
PSA to my fellow quilters: don’t leave your hot PSA to my fellow quilters: don’t leave your hot iron sitting on your wool mat while teaching. Ask me how I know… 🫠 What’s the worst sewing mishap you’ve ever had?
Day 3 (or is it 30?) with my first Faefolk quilt i Day 3 (or is it 30?) with my first Faefolk quilt in Everlush fabrics. Quilting on the @Berninausa Q20 sit-down and questioning my life choices… but wow, it’s going to be worth it. 🪡✨ Someday
Here are some still shots of my Faefolk quilt in M Here are some still shots of my Faefolk quilt in Maple Syrup Disco ✨🧵.On my first Faefolk quilt, I didn’t use pins. Partly because I was in a rush and partly because I had been working on Dilly Dally, so my piecing game was on point. Those seams came out perfect.I thought, “I’ve done it once, I can do it again.” This time I skipped pins, but I haven’t been working on anything fussy lately, and let’s just say the seams had a mind of their own. 🙃 🤦‍♀️ Anyway, going to be sending this one to testers this week!
