Tumbler

I’ve been working on getting a group of throw quilts together to give away. I came across a couple of these bundles that I picked up for a song a couple years ago and decided they would work well for quilts for men.

I decided to use my large AccuQuilt tumbler die.

I layered up four fat quarters at a time and cut into strips about 7 1/4 inches wide.

I rotate my strip set with every cut to keep from wasting fabric.

I was able to get 9 large tumblers out of each fat quarter.

Time to cut some background tumblers.

Before I go, I wanted to let you know about this amazing deal from AccuQuilt .

70% off! Wow! Happy shopping!

Have a great day!

This and That

I changed the sheets on all the guest beds after little visitors. I changed the quilts at the same time.

This made me laugh way too hard!

My newest vocabulary word. I spuddle a lot.

Wise words from the amazing Alice Cooper.

Have a great day!

Finish It Up Friday ~ Blue Story Runner

I’ve been a wee bit under the weather, but still managed to get this done.

I used this design board set for the quilting.

I like the curved quilting with the straight piecing.

I used some older Moda Marbles for the backing and binding.

Have a great day!

Blue Story Runner

I’ve played a bit with layouts. I liked this one, but it seemed too wide and too short.

So I ended up with a more random arrangement.

Time to get this finished up! Have a great day!

Blue Story

I found this charm pack at Tuesday Morning a while back. It seems my fabric always needs to age before I cut into it.

Anyway, I decided this would make a great table runner for a gift.

I placed stacks of 5-6 squares on my 2 1/2” AccuQuilt strip cutter to cut them in half.

So quick!

Then I shuffled and pieced one light and one dark together.

Press to the dark!

To be continued….

Have a great day!
