I finally finished my RT top tonight! I did the best I could with the photos, as I have nowhere to lay out such a large quilt.

In 2021, I joined three Quilting Board sampler quilt-alongs in the Quilting Challenges forum (my first samplers). None of them are finished, as I bit off more than I could chew. But I intend to...

I square up units (HSTs, etc.) in groups of 10 or 20 as I press them. If I'm constructing blocks in assembly line fashion, I square up when all the blocks are put together. If I'm making unique...

I still have my original cover. I just cover the cover with large pieces of flannel, which I wash when they get dirty. They aren't fitted, but they stay in place. If I'm pressing a long piece of...

I buy everything on line, so cannot evaluate beforehand. But I've never had a problem with the quality of fabric.

I've started on my smaller geese in lighter pinks -- much happier with them. I finally decided on a border plan I liked, but unfortunately, because of the fabric wasted in the first batch of geese, I...

I think I have to re-do my geese; they are too big and too bright and overshadow the quilt center (I'm doing 4x5 rather than 5x6. I probably should have waited to make them until my top was together).

Here is my RT center. I think I'll have to call it 'Rhododendrons in an Ice Storm' because of the icy look the pale gray B blocks give it. I had intended all of my butterflies to be flying east...

The pre-cuts I normally use are fat quarters and fat eighths. I notch all fabric when washing; this helps control the fraying. The fat quarters I wash as with yardage; the fat eighths I put in a...
