Bright quilts

I just made this very cheerful baby quilt entirely out of random 2½” strips I had laying around… this is my Honeycomb Hexagon pattern. I thought this would make a good video to show you how these blocks are made with the ruler you (probably) have! Here are a couple of behind the scenes pics, as I was doing the quilting, and then the bias cut striped binding (my favorite). This pattern is so much fun to make, and it came out so much better than I expected after just grabbing a little of this…

Eilene Johnson on Instagram: "Hexi Magic! I’ve always loved making scrappy hexi hot pads and coasters, but I didn’t like getting up and down for trimming. I’ve been thinking for awhile how I might make it easier with a quilt as you go method. This technique worked great I’m so happy to say! - grab yourself a small clear ruler and a Frixion heat erase pen and some sharp scissors. - I used a base of warm and bright quilt batting (but insulbright would also be amazing) cut to about 13” x…

A couple of weeks ago, I started a little scrap quilt using 2½” squares and leftover binding ends that I couldn’t seem to throw out. I showed my process for partial seams in making those super simple but interesting blocks in that week's blog post, Partial to Scraps!I made a total of sixteen blocks that ended up 6½” square. Now, to figure out a layout 🙂I decided on four rows of four blocks to make a square quilt. I thought it would be more interesting to put the blocks on point.… and that…

I’ve been obsessing over a quilt I saw on Facebook last week. Literally thinking about it all the time. I decided to dig into my stash and found this 2016 Kaffe Fassett layer cake and decided…

Rainbow Charms is finished! Measures 49" by 63" I bought the backing last year at Hancock's of Paducah when I was in town for the Fall Paducah AQS show. At the time, I didn't have a particular project in mind but I knew it would make a great backing - and it has. The stripe I used for the binding has been aging in my stash for quite a while - again, I knew it would be a good binding and I'm happy it has finally found its quilt. Quilted with Glide thread in Graphite (top and bobbin) using…

I love the bright fabric in this twin size (64 X 87) quilt. It can go on a bed or be used as a large lap quilt or throw. I quilted it with a light blue thread in a daisy pattern. The batting is Warm & Natural and I used Glide thread to quilt it. It is machine binded for durability. I can personalize it if desired. I can also add a hanging sleeve if you would like to hang this as wall art.
