Finishing the Quilted Base
My project for National Quilting Day is a still life wall hanging. I completed the piecing of the top, and loaded it on the longarm to quilt. The idea is for the white quarter-square triangles to look like patterned wallpaper. I did the stand-and-stare for a bit, then dove in with the same quilting design …

Stashbusters November

Cradle Quilt Update
The cradle quilt drive has been amazing. Before we began Autumn Jubilee, I did two updates with photos of the 73 quilts that were received in September. The month of October has been nothing short of miraculous! This will be a very long and picture heavy post, as there are more than 100 more quilts …
Stashbusters October (A Week Early) and a Road Trip
Updating early because of Autumn Jubilee, today we check in with our Stashbuster totals for September. Much of what I worked on this month will not be completed until October, so fabric out was a challenge. But the fabric 'in' was a delight! You'll see a lot of these fabrics next month! Aren't they scrumptious? …
