KatyQuilts

I’ve had an idea for some time now for a quilt. I decided to make a mini to try out my idea. These are the fabrics I chose for this test piece.

And these are the dies I used.

It only took a few minutes to cut these out.

Can you guess where I’m headed with this?

Stay tuned…..

Have a great day!

I’ve been binding the vintage quilt that I’m hand quilting. No, the quilting isn’t done.

But after I got one row of fans done all around the outside, I was able to get the binding on.

I think you can see the quilting a bit better on the back.

I used cutoffs from the backing to make the binding.

Have a great day!

Every blog post needs a quilt photo, right? So here it is.

Now on to the point of this post. I’ve used Bloglovin’ for several years as a way to keep up with my favorite blogs. Recently, it has become very problematic. I see this every time I try to read my blogs.

This happened a few months ago and I thought they had it fixed. If so, it’s broken again. Ugh.

If you have followed my blog via this app, there is an alternative.

You can also follow via Feedly. I am still on the fence about that reader though.

If you have any alternative ideas, let us all know in the comments.

Have a great day!

Remember this? I had the top all pieced when I got home from Arizona in April. Except for the borders…..why do I procrastinate on borders?

Finally, I made myself put them on and get this monster loaded. Here is the pantograph I am using. It is from Willow Leaf Studio.

It’s slow going, but begun is half done! Right? Right? 😳

This is likely to be on the frame for a while, especially with the littles here this week.

Have a great day!

I have several irons in the fire this week. Progress has been made on the blocks for the baby quilt. I have more done than this now, but I thought I’d keep you all guessing.

I finished the last of the Hattie’s Choice blocks.

I thought about using the purple Kona for alternate plain blocks, but maybe sashing would be better.

I’m also thinking about making a little quilt using these dies from my AccuQuilt 5” Qube.

The three local littles will be here all day today and tomorrow, so I’m not sure how much more will get gone this week.

Have a great day!

Today, AccuQuilt is rereleasing the 5” Qube. I made this little bit to celebrate!

I’ve had my 5” Qube for a while and I love it. The smaller the pieces, the harder it is for me to cut accurately with a rotary cutter and ruler, so I love this.

Of course, I made this in red, white, and blue!

I used shapes 2, 4, and 8. The hourglass units in this little quilt finish at 2 1/2 inches.

You can learn more about the 5” Qube by joining in on the AccuQuilt Live program today.

Hope to see you there!

I need a quick project, so I grabbed this charm pack and the lovely pink Kona solid.

It didn’t take long to cut the block pieces with my AccuQuilt Studio Cutter. I love all my GO! Cutters, but my Studio was my first and remains my favorite. Ten layers at a time? Yes, please!

Now I’m ready for a good audio book and some sew time! Have a great day!
