I’m playing with layouts today.
I think I like the alternate block setting best. But I need to find a good fabric for those blocks. These two options are both from my vintage stash.
I think I like the blue plaid best, but maybe I’ll keep looking.
Also wanted to remind you that today is your last chance to register for tomorrow’s Accuquilt Mix and Match party.
Have a great day!

I so love this little Jack in the Box quilt!
It is only about 52 by 65 inches so the quilting went fast. Especially since my son recommend this series to watch.
Yes, I know this is old. I’m not a TV watcher, but I’m enjoying this series.
Now I’m on to the binding phase.
To be followed by washing.
Have a great day!

I decided to try out this Accuquilt die set. I’ve had it for a while and never used it.
This is what the actual dies look like. they make a 3 inch finished block.
I tried pinning and not pinning. I think not pinning actually worked better for me.
I don’t have a plan in mind for this. But it’s always fun to try something new!
Have a great day!

I love this fun quilt! I really wish I had cut two sets of the solid squares, because I already want to make another!
All fabric came from the stash, which meant piecing a backing.
The extra navy binding I made a while back was perfect for this.
It is so bright!
I love all the crazy, random fabrics.
I kinda wish I could keep it, but it will be a wedding gift for my nephew and his new wife.
The pantograph is Malachite from Urban Elementz.
Have a wonderful day!
I love little quilts because they finish so quickly! I sat outside to bind this little beauty.
Ta daaa!
I love how the variegated perle cotton looks on the back.
Every piece in this little quilt is vintage except for the scrap of batting I used.
I love it on this doll bed.
Have a great day!
I’m working on something new! I love this die from Accuquilt !
I cut the background pieces from Kona White and the other bits came from my vintage stash.
See how the points are cut to make lining up the pieces easy? I love that!
I’m loving these so far! The blocks finish at 8 inches.
I think this will be a baby quilt. I have so many ideas in my head that I think I need to start making smaller quilts.
Have a great day!

I promised I’d share my secret to easy on point settings, here it is!
This die was introduced at the Accuquilt launch party today, but as a GO! Getter, I was able to get my hands on it early.
I used it to cut the light blue setting triangles for my jewel box quilt, and it was so easy and accurate! I have the 8 inch setting die set so it works with 8 inch blocks. It included the side and corner triangles. No guesswork or sizing up and trimming down.
I don’t know where this green backing fabric came from, but it was in the stash and worked.
Now I want to set all my quilts on point!
I’d like to get the 4 and 6 inch setting dies as well.
Before I go, I wanted to let you know that you can get 25% off your total order at Accuquilt , today only, with the code LIVE25.

Someone I follow on Instagram decided to copy a small Trip Around the World quilt and invited others to follow along. Since I had these vintage solids already cut into squares, I decided to jump in!
It didn’t take long and I was ready to start piecing.
And then, quilting!
Since the joy is in the journey, I decided to hand quilt this with my variegated perle cotton.
Now, an episode or two of Monk and I should be ready to bind.
Have a great day!
I finished my blocks for this quilt and played with layouts.
Want to know the easiest way to make a simple quilt look more complex? Put your blocks on point!
This is much easier to do than it looks. Come back tomorrow for my new trick for this and to see this quilt finished.
