SCRAPPY TUMBLERS QUILT

SCRAPPY TUMBLERS QUILT

Are you looking for a simple pattern that can be done in any color combo? What about using lots of scraps? How about easy to put together? This Scrappy Tumblers quilt is the answer to all those questions. I have been working on another tumbler quilt from scraps that will look totally different (hint: look at the very bottom of this post for current photo). Anyway, I went looking for photos of the Scrappy Tumblers quilt to share with you…

HAPPY HIBERNATION QUILT (or using those crumbs & strips – Part 2)

I am back to share Part 2 of the Happy Hibernation Quilt which is a fun and cheerful way to beat all the ugly news about COVID-19 on the news. I am trying to remain upbeat and content during this stressful time.

HAPPY HIBERNATION QUILT (or using those crumbs & strips – Part 1)

The news at this point is full of the COVID-19 pandemic. Hopefully quilting is helping you get through this anxious time and giving you a positive project to work on. What are you doing for “quarantine” quilting? I have been working on this crumb/string/strip quilt that I am calling my Happy Hibernation Quilt Part 1 (or using those crumbs & strips). I googled “quilting trends 2020” this morning thinking there would be several posts on other blogs about “quarantine” quilts…

QUILT SHOW IN PADUCAH, KY 2006 (part 2)

Is it possible to over-dose on quilts and all things “quilty”? I believe most quilters would say no. Quilters seem to go to quilt shows to see other quilts and buy wonderful fabrics and other supplies. Here is more of the beautiful Quilt Show in Paducah, KY 2006 (part 2).

FINALLY FINISHED: FLOWERS & TUMBLERS (part 4)

This quilt started out as…well, not what it ended up. It is sections made of left-over parts from other quilts. However, it is finally finished: Flowers & Tumblers !!!! The machine quilting has been done for a couple months, but I couldn’t decide what color or fabric to bind it in.
