I have an idea!

Scary, I know. 🤣 I figured out a plan for these fat quarters plus this background fabric. Before cutting, I did replace the white one and the bottom FQ.

I’m starting out using Shape 3 from my 16” AccuQuilt Qube. This might be my favorite Qube.

Time to sew some large HSTs!

Before I go, the sale at AccuQuilt has been extended!

Stay tuned and have a great day!

What to do?

I feel like I’m in a bit of a quilting slump. I can’t decide what to work on next. I have these lovely fabrics.

And these.

And this bundle I won from Andover last spring.

Of course, I have UFOs I could work on. They all feel uninspiring at the moment. Sigh….

Have a great day!

Leader/Ender Quilt

My leader/ender blocks are done!

And I’ve gone through and straightened up all my leftover 2” squares. Looks like I have enough for a couple more quilts.

Now I need to figure out my next leader/ender project. It might involve these 2 1/2” squares.

Have a great day!

This and That

Another finished puzzle!

This was a rare moment of peace between these two!

You may have heard that Arizona got pummeled by the remnants of tropical storm Priscilla. This is one of the parks in our neighborhood. We didn’t get it nearly as bad as some areas.

All the rain caused our cactus to bloom!

And I leave you with this thought.

Have a great day!

Finish It Up Friday ~ 30s HSTs

My little HST quilt is done. It seems to glow in the morning light!

I love quilting grids in these pieces. I don’t worry about getting things perfectly even. But it gives such great texture.

The back.

I didn’t have enough green triangles, so I added the pink. I think it works.

Today is the last day for the AccuQuilt Better Than Black Friday Sale!

There are also some fantastic Clearance deals, one of which I highly recommend! Believe it or not, this is on clearance!

I’ve had mine for a couple years now. It was great for bringing stuff in the RV, but I plan to use it for sew days at the local guild now as well.

It holds a lot of stuff! I probably won’t take my die cutter to sew days, but this will be great for hauling projects and supplies. So you may be interested even if you don’t have a die cutter. The large pocket on the back holds rulers and mats.

Have a great day!

Finally!

I finally found a local quilt group to join! The Calico Cut-Ups are a local chapter of the statewide Arizona Quilt Guild.

I recently attended my first meeting as a guest. I have never met such a friendly group of women! They sew after the business meeting. I brought my Featherweight and stitched a few blocks.

They meet twice a month and I’m so looking forward to the next meeting! I brought home some labels so I can donate some quilts to the groups they support.

I’ve never been part of a group quite like this. My old guild in Michigan was huge and could be a bit clique-ish. They had smaller groups for sewing, but the timing never worked for me.

Have a great day!

Summit Stitching QAL

I’ve been working away at my four patches.

And now all 320 of them are done!

It felt like I used up a lot of these 1 1/2” squares. But looking at the before and after photos of my bin now, I’m not so sure. Here is before.

And here is after.

I think they are having babies in there!

Have a great day!

Summit Stitches

Lori said we needed 80 four patches for this little quilt. It turns out, we need 320!

So I’m one fourth of the way there. I don’t mind at all. I love making these!

They are a perfect leader/ender project. Time to go pair up more scraps!

Have a great day!
