here are the 2 mock cathedral windows i made for another cousin's grandkids for xmas.
one has a quilted border top and bottom. it needed to be a little longer and i didn't have time to make 5 more circle sandwiches :cry: .
the stripe one i have posted before when it was a wip.

Pretty nana. I have this one on my to do list for maybe this year. I bought one of those circle attachmnets...did you use one of those?

very pretty

Very Nice!! I think I'm going to have to do one soon.

They are pretty cool. Did you put batting between the circles?

I just found myself staring at each panel. What interesting fabrics. I really love the quilts. They are wonderful and I think your cousin's grandkids are going to be very happy with them!

Circle sandwiches? Circle attachment?

OK -- I give. How do you make the "mock" windows?????????? :oops: :roll:

really nice job.

Here's a link to a version I did early in the year, really easy :D

Thanks Izzy!! However, the video would not load on my computer :oops: :oops: I'm sure it's something I'm doing wrong. Will try again later....

If not pm me, I think somewhere on my laptop I might just have a tute!!

Thanks Izzy -- you are so sweet!!

Now here is TWO different versions...I did the circle one, but the square paper one looks good to do too!!

This is the paper template square version

Those are very pretty - haven't done that pattern yet.

Thanks Izzy!! The pattern, "Simply Orange-Peel", I have seen done with batting and sewn by machine using a "circular foot". (I have a Bernina.) Just put the batting on the bottom as you sew your circle...

I just love these patterns and can't wait to start one --- sigh --- sew much fabric, sew little time :roll: :roll:

Very nice!!

hi thatnks all for looking at the mock cathedral window.
no circle attachment. i just found a round thing in my kitchen, in this case the lid for an old tupperware pie saver. drew the circle cut it out and sewed.
i used the cheapest flannel i could find, $1.oo per yard at wallyworld, prewashed of course, instead of batting. they are pretty easy but these were bigger than the baby size i usually make. but no big deal.
if you do a search on this web site there are instructions on how to do this pattern.
use whatever size circle you wish.

Very pretty. Have not tried that one yet either

I love your versions Nana. I just used a plate and put a tiny bit of 'bluetack' on the lip to stop it slipping and used a rotary cutter to whip around it...

Flannel on the inside is a great idea. Flannel bed sheets are usually pretty cheap in January/February - so I might look for some to use for insides. I've thought of making one of bedspread weight (very light) for summer use; maybe pretty florals. . .

Very nice.

I had some flannel sheets I just adored and when I got a bigger bed, I saved them and they were my daughter's favorite sheets. Now I'm spoiled because if my sheets aren't soft and comfy, I don't use them. :lol:
