Evening Walk Quilt Reveal + My New Patchwork + Quilt class for beginners

  I feel like I’ve been talking about this for ages.  It’s actually been just a bit over six months.  Still, that is a long time to be working on the exact same thing.  This is my very first online class and it’s for the beginner quilter. It was 2008 when I first started quilting…

Ruby Beatrice Quilt – #1 – Quilt Reveal – Crib Size is my Spring Clean Bundle

Little Miss Sawtooth Quilt – #7 – The Coral Romantic Version – Quilt Reveal

  So I don’t know what it is about this version of this quilt, but I am finding it one of or the most romantic quilts I’ve ever made.  I guess it’s just the colors, maybe.  The corals and oranges and bits of mint are certainly agreeing with me and the weather we are having…

Little Miss Sawtooth Quilt – #6 – quilt reveal

  I hope that you are not getting tired of seeing me make this quilt.  I’m pretty much making one every other month now.  This was a customer requested quilt in blues and greens and low volumes as requested. The best part about this quilt is with the exception of the large low volume squares…

Carolina Mingle Quilt – #3 – Quilt Reveal

  I love, love, love doing quilt alongs with y’all.  It really motivates me to stay on track and get things finished.  I was also crazy inspired by these fabrics.  I’m normally not into red, but the navy owned me to the bone and I loved the way the red roses popped from everywhere. Today,…

In Chapter 3, we work on three designs that are id In Chapter 3, we work on three designs that are ideal for borders and sashing:Swirls in a borderSwirls are a classic FMQ design, but they are not the easiest to master. When I first started quilting, my swirls were always a little too pointy or just kind of strange looking. Honestly, mine still sometimes come out a little funky. That’s okay. We stitch anyway and keep building that rounded movement.Ribbon candyRibbon candy is beautiful and traditional, but let’s just say it can feel a bit hard. We try a looser approach too, and I show you a version I used in the borders of my Dilly Dally quilt that I absolutely love.Wishbone loopsWishbones are a personal favorite. I usually quilt them as a filler, especially inside flower centers. In this chapter, we take that familiar design and try it in a border space to give it a new role.Join in at Quilty Club - http://www.quiltyclub.com/
