Star Sweep is finished

This is Star Sweep from Bonjour Quilts. I really didn't have great expectations for this quilt. I was just trying to use up some 2-1/2" strips, but I really like it now that it's finished. As my...

When I quilted my quilts on my sit-down Tiara, I glue basted the sandwich. Now that I have a long arm, I have used it to glue down troublesome edges. I have glued my seams when piecing for several...

Here is mine. I believe it's called the Idaho Beauty. The block finished at 8" square and contained 43 individual pieces. I had to use three different seam widths to get the points to align...

Help with wool batting

I just purchased some Hobbs Tuscany 100% wool batting for a large quilt which is intended to be washed. The directions on the batting are making me think I may have made a mistake. They say that the...

I understand that babies like bright colors, so any simple block with bright colors should be perfect. Warm Wishes is an easy pattern, as is Falling Charms. You can google either of them for a...

It’s very interesting how each of us prefers one quilting technique over another. I’ve done FMQ on my domestic, and I had a sit-down Tiara for many years. I disliked the actual quilting process, and...

That's a great-looking quilt. I'm thinking of a scrappy version with the stars and border in one color, the churn dashes in another, and the background and four patches scrappy.

Shannon Cuddle is the only brand I will buy. Far superior IMHO to any other. I've had no trouble quilting it with a sit-down Tiara or with a long-arm. And there is a lot less fuzz to deal with too.

My 2 1/2" strip drawer was overflowing, so I looked for a pattern that would use up some of them. I found a photo on-line of this quilt in browns and golds. I had tons of blues/greens/purples, so...

I’m good at choosing fabrics/colors for my quilts. I’m bad at being creative. I’d much rather follow a pattern. I’m more a technician than an artist.
