KatyQuilts

I finished the blocks for my baby quilt and even got it together and quilted! Yes, the mister was gone all day. 😁

Not only that, I got this beast on the frame.

I have lots of quilting to do now. Have a great day!

I have a gazillion charm packs. The local Project Linus is in need of baby quilts so that was a great excuse to rip one open.

I cut the charms into quarters and also cut 1 1/2” strips of white and navy blue.

After stitching the strips together, I put them crosswise on my strip cutting die to subcut them. I should have taken a picture of this, but I forgot. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I also cut 1 1/2 inch squares. Now I’m ready to sit and piece.

Here is my first finished block.

Have a great day!

It’s time to get back to work on this little project.

The next task is to make borders from the leftover squares. I’ve decided to do this as a leader/ender project.

These squares are cut one inch. Tiny!

Have a great day!

It was fun to find a quilt I made hanging in the AccuQuilt booth at QuiltCon!

My adorable grand dog, Milo.

The mister and. Tried our hands at panning for gold. 😊

We recently watched this. Such a great movie!

For Valentine’s Day, we ate at our favorite German restaurant. It was fun to notice this patio decor.

I think from now on, I will refer to my sewing room as The Growlery.

And I leave you with this thought.

Hav3 a great day!

I took so many photos at QuiltCon! I have quite a few upcoming posts to share with you.

Have a great day!

The mister was working at Daughter #2s house and I made myself work on these borders.

It was no small feat, but it is done. You can see in the photo below how huge this quilt is.

I also figured out a backing. I picked up this solid yellow. Sadly, I have to piece three lengths to get a piece big enough. Wish me luck.

Have a great day!

I’ve been struggling with borders for this top. I need to add borders to get this up to king size.

I found the fabric on the far right. It is the first fabric I bought this year. The blue was in my stash. I will use it for the inner border.

Now I need to find the motivation to cut and sew these.

Have a great day!

I now have four blocks finished.

And the next four are cut out.

I really have no idea how many of these I will make. Once I have this next group made, I may play around with some layouts.

Have a great day!
