Happy Folk Quilt – Gingerbread – 2nd In Progress

Happyfolk Quilt I last chatted about the progress of my Happyfolk quilt here. I’ve been slow moving on this one. Busy with other lovelies, I guess, but my heart is right here in this one though. It has all my favorite things happening…..low volume, Dresden plates, gold, peach. I’m in love with the color palette….

A Dresden Quilt #9 – Jewel Tones – In Progress

  A Dresden Quilt After a month of effort, I finally have a flimsy for my A Dresden Quilt. My 9th version of this quilt. Whew! This feels good! So much work and for a while there I thought I’d never get here. Dresdens are so tedious, so time consuming, but it’s hard to argue…

Happyfolk Quilt – Gingerbread – In Progress

Happyfolk I’ve started a new quilt this week. I designed this one late fall last year, but ended up giving it a huge adjustment just this past January. The blocks will be pretty big and each block features a Dresden in low volume fabrics. A double pointed Dresden! So much work! There’s not even that…

Sugar Bear Quilt #2 – Velvet fabrics – In Progress

  Sugar Bear Quilt I’ve completed my second flimsy of Sugar Bear. I have so enjoyed making this one again. I think it’s a pattern you’ll end up seeing me repeat over and over. I LOVE sampler quilts! See my other Sugar Bear Quilts here: Original Sugar Bear in Funshine – Progress Original Sugar Bear…

Scrappy 9-patch Quilt – Free Quilt Pattern – In Progress

Scrappy 9-patch Quilt This is a commission quilt I’ve been working on. It was simple and fun and took no time at all really. Plus, it gave me a chance to really get a hold of that purple stash drawer of mine. It’s rammed full as I hardly ever use purples, but seem to collect…

Sugar Bear Quilt – Funshine Bundle – In Progress

  Sugar Bear Quilt I designed Sugar Bear last summer (around June 2020) and I started writing the pattern the following August. It took me forever since the blocks are all so different and I was distracted by other projects, but around December the pattern was complete and I was just waiting for the moment…

Photo 1: I used to work so hard trying to get flyi Photo 1: I used to work so hard trying to get flying geese to come out the exact right size. Every time. Now I just make them a little bigger and trim them down, the same way we do half square triangles. So much easier. So much cleaner. Being open to changing your method… even after years of doing it one way matters.Photo 2: And this paper plate system? I didn’t expect to love it this much. One plate per block. Everything I need, all in one spot. If I have time for one block, I grab one plate. If I have time for three, I grab three. Less mess. Less digging. More sewing. quiltyclass.com
All organized! Thanks to my friend Kathy for sugge All organized! Thanks to my friend Kathy for suggesting this brilliant idea of using paper plates. Each plate represents every piece needed for a single block. Super helpful for Soulshine since the blocks have a gazillion pieces! quiltyclass.comCabinet from @arrowsewing

I can't remember if I've showed this one here or n I can't remember if I've showed this one here or not. The quilt top was sitting in a closet for two years. Then I quilted it, and then it sat on a table quilted, but not bound for several months. FINALLY it's done. 😊 Sometimes these things just take how long they take. ❤️ https://meanderandmake.com/quilt-kits/fernweh-quilt/
