Since I have become a maniac quilter I would like some quilt note cards. Maybe at American Craft museum or online?

yes, they are quilted. They're each about the size of a fat quarter. That's what they're backed with. They are backed with inexpensive "what was I thinking when I bought this" fat quarters ;-)
I quilted aprox a 1.5" grid. I work on these when I'm between projects or don't know what to make next. They are my threapy quilts ;-) Sometimes I just sew aimlessly when I'm in a funk. Like going for a drive and not knowing where you'll end up. |
I am looking for large applique patterns.I went to amish auction and they these beautiful quilts big peacocks all kinds of large applique .Does anyone know where to get patterns

These are great, I would sew them together and make a quilt with them. I was going to save scraps and make one, I forgot about it and threw small trimmings away, now I have to go through my wastecan and retrieve the ones in there. I think they would make a beautiful quilt.

I'm just collecting them at this point. I have a few ideas rumbling around. I really like seeing them as useable cloth rather than a bag of waste. I use scrap batting for these as well.

Thanks - at this quilted point I bet joining them with the binding would be pretty easy. I'll put this type of project on my 'winter to-do list' for when it's too cold to sew downstairs....hmmm maybe on the treadle machine that's in the same room as the wood burning stove! :) |
