KatyQuilts

Progress is being made!

I’ve finished sewing all the strips of squares needed for this quilt. It appears I still have plenty of 2” squares in the bin.

I think this is what I will focus my sewing time on until we head west. Time for the next step.

But before I start sewing, today is a die release AccuQuilt Live program! I’m very excited as you might just catch a project from yours truly. 😁 click here to register.

There will also be give always and special pricing on new dies and bundles. Get the details on the deals here.

Have a great day!

I’m finally getting back to this.

I decided to go a different way with my triangles though.

Here is the top.

I’m trying to decide how to quilt it now. I hope to at least figure that out today. Life is very busy right now!

Have a great day!

Mr. Wonderful picked this up for me! I just love it. 😊

I got this gorgeous arrangement from Daughter #3 and SIL for Thanksgiving.

Our family always does puzzles on holidays. Sadly, we found this one was missing a piece. Ugh.

I think I have an idea for this pretty yarn.

E1 told me his sidekick, Stinky needed a scarf too.

Love that smile.

And all three Es loved their quilts!

Before I go, AccuQuilt has Studio Cutters on sale and all Studio dies are half off! I have every AccuQuilt cutter, but this is still my favorite. There is nothing like cutting ten layers at a time.

There are also some crazy good deals on GO! Dies in the Overstock section!

Have a great day!

I’ve been wanting some of this Andover line, Double Pinks and Blues, for some time. I finally broke down and ordered a half yard bundle when it was on sale at Homestead Hearth.

I wanted it to go with this Jinny Breyer Pillar print I bought back in the ‘90s!

I’m not sure when I’ll get to this project, but I’ll be ready when the time comes.

I also got some yardage of these two.

The green was purchased for my leader/ender project and the yellow, just because.

Though that yellow could make a good binding. Maybe.

Have a great day!

I’ve made a few bow tie blocks here and there. I’m up to 49.

I decided to sort and count my pieces. I ended up with some leftovers. Apparently, I can’t count.

I had enough pieces for 114 blocks. So I cut enough bits for 6 more.

Now I’ll end up with a total of 120 blocks. I don’t know if I’ll finish these before I head to Arizona in December, but if not, I have everything in order now.

Have a great day!

After a wonderful , but busy weekend, I headed down to the sewing room late yesterday. I decided to tackle this bin of 1930-40s scraps.

I had an idea in mind for these. I grabbed these dies and started cutting.

These scraps were leftovers from someone’s Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilt and many pieces look like Swiss cheese.

So I spent a short forever pressing and cutting.

And then, it hit me. I was cutting pieces for the wrong quilt. I need 4” and 2” finished squares.

🤦🏻‍♀️

These could work, but throws the scale off completely. It is NOT what I wanted.

This totally took the wind from my sails.

I know, I can still use these and it is not time wasted, but it wasn’t what I wanted. For now, I’m putting this bin back in the closet.

Have a great day!
