Thank you, all... Working on sandwich today and hope to start quilting this weekend. I ordered the scallop ruler from QIAD. Open House on Saturday....fingers crossed!!
|
Oh how exciting!!! About the Open House I mean ;)
|
Good luck on the home sale, Teen!
|
Your Santa quilt is awesome. Like the idea of the trees instead of pieced blocks and the green border is perfect.
Wishing you good luck at the open house. |
Good luck on your open house Teen! I hope you get a great offer quickly.
Your Santa quilt top looks fabulous!! I love the addition of the trees. Your quilt is wonderfully balanced. I know your going to enjoy displaying that quilt top at Christmas. Your applique is second to none!! Simply awesome!! Anael, I didn't realize there were so many pineapple blocks and churn dash blocks in this quilt. They are really great. And your pineapple blocks take on a cool secondary design when they are put together. Really really great job. The top looks awesome!!! |
Thank you Judith! Yes there are.....:) In other quilts there are even more churn dash blocks (and other blocks LOL)!!!
|
Thank you, Blue Bell and Judith!!

Well, why are there two lines on the templates then? One for..........and one for????????? If they are exact size, why is there a second inner line? I know your name is not Jen Kingwell :D :D Not sure if I"m going to start Happy Birds. I might start Midnight at the Oasis and let you do the Happy Birds. That way you can tell me what to do and more important, what NOT to do :D :D . The directions are a bit confusing; however, at the end of the sentence it says "or use precut papers with 1" side measurement". If you measure a side on the inner line, it is 1" so this is the finished size of hexi. The outer line is the seam allowance. Go forth and whack that fabric...lol... |
RE: Jen Kingwell "Gypsy Wife" booklet. After purchasing, and reading several times, sorting fabric scraps, etc. I have decided to use all my assorted sizes/patterns of blocks already sewn to attempt this quilt. Planning to use 2" strips rather than the 1 1/2" in book, and will use graph paper to design my quilt top following her photos/ideas.
|
Quiltqtrs..... Sounds like a great way to use up some scraps and unique design with the wider strips. I haven't attempted this pattern yet but others here have with great success. looking forward to seeing your progress pictures and welcome to the Kingwell group.
