Quilt Reveal – The Good Girl Quilt

Oh, this quilt! I’m really digging it.  I’m not sure if it was just the colors chosen that really suit my style, the abundance of low volume which I know you know I’m into, the incredible beauty of all those blue AGF fabrics or just the simplicity of it, but I’m going to put this…

A Quilt Maker’s Tale – The Guest Book Quilt

My grandmother could pull any quilt from her closet (that’s where she kept them) and tell you something about it.  One time she pulled one down for me and told me where each fabric had come from, some were clothing that her children had worn.  She remembered every piece.  Every quilt maker has a story…

A few photos from Chapter 5 💛 I finally got the Dr A few photos from Chapter 5 💛
I finally got the Dresden attached, and seeing it sitting on that quilted background made me ridiculously happy. All those little blades, all that straight line quilting, and now it actually looks like the quilt I’ve been seeing in my head.
I went with the traditional method on this one, top stitching around the edges and stitching in the ditch between the blades. It takes a little more stopping and starting, but I really love the definition it gives the Dresden.
And yes, I definitely spent some time just standing there looking at it before moving on 😅

In this chapter, we’re attaching the Dresden plate and exploring two different quilting options. You can choose a traditional approach with top stitching and stitch-in-the-ditch quilting, or a free motion method using flowing S-curves to secure the plate.
