Quilting Inspiration

auntjudy's - Tue, 08/31/2010 - 3:51pm

Hi Everyone. Ok.....time to have a show and tell. Or just a tell. What is everyone working on?

As for me, I have been working on my double wedding ring. Next week I have my class in the Farmer's Wife again, so I will be back to that with homework. Having fun sewing, getting ready to turn these projects into QUILTS!

Mistakes in Patterns, Kits? What is your experience, and.....

nursie76's - Tue, 08/24/2010 - 3:28pm

I am sure many of us have found mistakes in a pattern or kit when we are deep in the middle of a quilt. What are your experiences and how did you work around it?

Double Wedding Ring Quilt Top

Started this quilt top in the 1980's and didn't finish until the mid 1990's. It still isn't quilted. I have no idea where I got the pattern from.

Sources for 1930's (depression era) fabric

nursie76's - Sun, 08/15/2010 - 8:14pm

Over the weekend, I attended a quilting class with Judy at Mt. Pleasant Quilting. It was a new way to make a Double Wedding Ring Quilt. You use stuff that is like fusible interfacing to make the arcs and then temporarily fuse it to the background and then stitch with invisible thread. It looks very nice, isn't too hard (actually a little addicting), and is the only way I will ever make ANY size DWW quilt. My DH says he would like to see one big enough for our bed. Don't know if that will ever happen, but I do think if I have enough material, I will make at least an over sized lap quilt.

Great Source for rotary blades

nursie76's - Sun, 08/15/2010 - 8:27pm

Just wanted to pass on some info that I found on another site. Harbor Freight carries 45mm carpet cutter blades for 2 or $1.49 that fit many rotary cutters. They don't fit my Dritz cutter that has a little piece of plastic on the spindle for the blade, so requires a slotted blade, but definitely will fit my Fiskars. At that price, I can change them out sooner rather then tolerating them when they start to skip a thread here and a thread there.

Color Help Needed

auntjudy's - Mon, 08/09/2010 - 12:35pm

Ok quitting buddies.......I could use some suggestions for the sashing on my quilt blocks. I still am making more to this quilt. The main color scheme as you can see is shades of blue and white. If the fabric is not marbled, it has stars in it. I keep wondering what color my sashing should be. SUGGESTIONS PLEASE!! At this point, I am thinking maybe a light buttery yellow.

Updated my UFO List

Sue's - Fri, 07/16/2010 - 3:15pm

Quilt

I decided that I should make a list, so I don't get more projects when I go to the quilt shops.

I listed them with Projects in planning, Have Material only, work in progress, need to make label, basting the quilt, hand or machine quilting.

This way I know where I am in all my projects. This makes things clearer for me.

I have 25 projects that are all at different stages. Some in need some material for, and then others need to quilt. A very interesting list. Hopefully it will keep me on track.

A really reversible bed quilt

This is the 'main' quilt pattern.

This quilt has wool batting & was quilted by my local quilt shop. I bought a bed skirt in the tan color & it matches the quilt 'tan' perfectly. I was lucky. Also, made some matching pillows that aren't pictured here but use several of the same quilt fabrics.

Large Dog Quilt

Dogs love quilts & having a pillow too!

Hi to everyone! I've been busy with making quilts & accessories for "Pampered Pet Quilts", my small business to make a bit of income & cover my supply costs at a minimum! The good news is that I'll have a great store location starting the 15th, in a town that is high-end and where there are lots of animal lovers. I hope this will be real positive for sales & to become known for making these 'custom' pet items.

Landscrape quilt work in progress

This is 1 of the steps of making this quilt come alive

This is a quilt that I took a picture of a mission in California when we were there last year. I loved it and wanted to make a quilt from it.

So I took a 3 day class from Natalie Sewell, You may have seen her on sewing with Nancy. The class was great, I meet some wonderful people. I put the UPC of her book, so maybe that way you would know who she is.

This is how far I got in the class, I have done some at home. Will keep you posted of the progress. It is really fun to do.

The Farmer's Wife (progress thus far)

Block

Here are the blocks so far from the Farmer's Wife quilt book. We meet once a month, and do four blocks in class, (or finish them at home if we don't finish in class) and then we get bonus block homework. All the bright green and blue labels are the names of the blocks, it will make it easier when I go to place them, to have the names. I think the book has over 100 blocks. We are only half way through the class. I am trying to do shades of blue and white fabric. The overall theme of the fabric is stars, although some of the fabrics are just a ma

I found one pair!

Well it did not take long. Easy pattern. I lined them with flannel. They are normally lined with fleece. And I can add a button on the cuff to keep it down or stay stitch them down.

If there is a pocket or an emblem, you can fussy cut it into the mitten. I have a buddy at church that LOVES to golf.....Mittens for winter golfing. Last year we gave him orange golf balls.

Sold so fast my head was spinning!

I loved making this purse. It is lined with pockets, which I would have kept it now! Fun and easy to make. The gal who bought it (for $65.00) is using it as a knitting tote! She sends me material now, and I make her additional ones for her friends and family ($45.00 labor and additional materials). I included the prices, cuz I know you are wondering how much this might sell for, well, I was surprised too! :D

www.artworkshops.com This is a bed and breakfast that you can go for quilting classes. They also have art classes, etc. I went about 2 years ago, to take a class from Paula Nadelstern. It was great fun, the rooms and area are beautiful. A great room to have the class in, lots of light. This was the best place I ever took a class from. The food is out of this world, you will gain weight here. Fresh homemade cookies right from the oven for snack in the afternoon. This is near Albany, NY.

www.quiltingbythelake.com This is a great place to let people know about classes that are going on around the country. I went to this Quilting by the Lake, which there is no lake, because they moved locations. There are alot of classes more on the arts then tradional. It is great and a lot of fun. You can go for 2 days or 2 weeks in the summer. I meet a lot of great people here and learned more than I could ever tell you about. This maybe something to look into.

I call these my 'pumpkin heads'! I found one just like this at a yard sale a couple months ago. When I saw it I knew I had to have it! I was certain the woman would ask some high price for it....like $20, but when I approached her and asked her what she wanted for her pumpkin she said..."oh, how about a dollar?". Before anyone overheard her price I said YES and snatched it up. I took him home and dissected him to make the pattern. Its not in a book. It was very OLD. You could see that no one used a ruler or rotary cutter for the orig

I just made a $25.00 donation, and I hope that everyone will donate something if even a dollar per person, to help keep this site going! I've not participated as much as I would have liked in the last year, probably due to "Grammy hood"!! It's amazing!! And therefore I haven't done much quilting at all, but I always check in here to see what everyone is up to!! Please Please friends, let's do what we can to keep us up and running!!!

Hi Girls,

It's a long time ago that I was here. But we have very busy months. At first we had our party for our 25 years of marriage. But I also have flue. This is the thirth week. It goes better now, but I'm still dizzy. I have sinusitus and sinus inflammation. And that causes that I'm dizzy. I hope I feel well soon. When I'm well you will see me more often. I have some pictures of the party from last saturday.
