Sewing from the Stash

Posted on August 2, 2022August 2, 2022

My stash has been growing and it was time to start sewing from the stash instead of helping the economy by buying new fabric. I love supporting the economy but I’m running out of storage room. So I went rumaging around in my stash until I saw some fabric that I had found at the…

Progress Has Been Made

Posted on June 21, 2020October 24, 2020

Though I’ve been in a funk and not very motivated I’ve not allowed myself to stop sewing. I haven’t had the same joy in it I normally do but that’s okay I’ve managed to get one UFO and one current year start finished this weekend. That progress has actually energized me and I’m pumped to…

Unfocussed

Posted on June 17, 2020

I had a good day of sewing on Saturday and got this happy blocks quilt top quilted. I have to say it wasn’t an easy quilting job. My Sapphire’s pressure foot sensor and the walking foot weren’t playing nicely together resulting in the machine stopping and the error message “pressure foot too high” coming on…

Steps Quilt – A finish!

Posted on June 6, 2020October 21, 2020

I got up today thinking I’d make a backing for quilt and layer it as well as make some happy blocks. So I headed into my sewing room and decided I’ll make the back and layer the quilt  before I started the fun and easy happy block sewing. So I made the backing (I had…

Two finishes

Posted on May 15, 2020June 11, 2020

This week last week was productive with two finishes! One is a UFO and the other is a current year start.  Having a few long conference calls that didn’t involve video was the secret to my success. Paid attention to the calls but was able to sew binding on while people were talking about things…

Happy to be Square

Posted on May 5, 2020June 11, 2020

I have a couple of conference calls (no video) and a webcast to thank for my latest finish. Hand sewing down a binding really is the perfect way to make what tend to be long winded and not so interesting calls more useful. Here are a couple of pictures of my Happy to be Square…

Suite Times

Posted on February 15, 2020January 11, 2021

Another quilt top made from the Easy Peasy Quilts 3- Yard Quilts booklet borrowed from the guild library. I have to say while I’m liking the look of the patterns I’m finding them technically not as much to my liking as I’d hoped they would be. They assume a full 42″ of usable fabric, which…

Happy Blocks Quilt

Posted on September 10, 2018June 11, 2020

I finally have a finish. Believe it or not it’s my first one in 2018.  I started making these happy blocks earlier this year and actually finished a quilt with them  in the same year I started working on them.  I’ve made lots of tops in that time but never got them past the finish line. Life…

Ribbit Quilt

Posted on April 7, 2017June 11, 2020

Made with Happy blocks as per Mary Quilts this quilt was super easy and quick to do.  It used 16 4.5 inch squares for the centre blocks.  The only hard thing about it was deciding what border to put on. The pink won and the final quilt looked like this: I had just enough of…
