I've made 3 quilts in my life. One is kind of un-usable, I call it a crazy quilt, one was a gift to Andy: the grey scale quilt, and one was a small t-shirt quilt. Both the Andy quilt and the tiny t-shirt quilt, I paid someone else to quilt them for me. I want
This is some of sheree's hand work and it makes me smile every time I see it. I bet you know where this is going.....I am having a hard time deciding. So here are a few of the ones I am putting on my to do list. I have had a pineapple quilt on my to do list since seeing Karen Hellerby at market a few years ago. Red, white and blue are also on my list. This is Melissa Corry'sa pattern braided Irish Chain. I love the colors Becky choose. So it is on my list as well. My daughters and I each have a jelly roll we have ready to do this 1600 quilt with we just need to find a weekend when we can all get together without anything else to do. I love the look of this and have been wanting to do those pin wheels for a long time. This is the year. I have a few more to add to the list but found this as I was looking through old post and still have to say I hate to cut into new fabric, especially a collection.

Merry Christmas to all my quilt friends!
Got to admit.... I have been really, really good, using up fabrics from my stache during the past two years. But every once in a while you need to freshen things up and acquire something new. Back in January.... Christmas fabrics were on sale at Ye Olde Fabric Shoppe in Stratford, Ontario. Finish the bolt for an additional 10% off? OKAY! And then my sister and I recently went for a drive to nearby London, Ontario. Picked up these sweet pieces of yardage at the Grand Re-Opening of Stache Fabrics & Notions. Thank you for being such wonderful, amazing, generous, beautiful quilty friends! I must say purchasing new fabric is AMAZING! But what is even more amazing is YOU!!!! This email from Julie Vogel arrived shortly after publishing my post: Super Size - The Math - How to resize any traditionally pieced quilt block "I recently saw your blog about enlarging some of your patterns, in particular the foxes. Turns out I had already done that and flipped them so as to make mirror images for my Mama Fox and Kits quilt. Here are some pictures of the finished project. I am so pleased with it and appreciated working with such a great fox pattern! If you would like to share it in any way, you are welcome to. Thank you!" Aren't they adorable?!!! Julie, YOU are AMAZING! Thank you all so much for sharing your photos and stories with me! UPDATE! Thanks to all your AMAZING efforts in our fundraiser that continued until the end of January! In addition to the original total of $1155USD, during 2019, that was split between the NSW Koala Hospital and Rural Fire Service Australia..... WE ALSO RAISED AN ADDITIONAL WHOPPING $1370USD, for the NSW Koala Hospital in Australia. Truly, I am AMAZED at how the entire quilting and crafting community has rallied together to help in Australia's time of need. THANK YOU!!!! Keep On Quilting On!

For day 15 of the color challenge I came up with this fun project. I found the sentiment on pinterest and just loved it and saved it to my computer. I wanted to do something with it. Then i had the idea of incorporating it in a color page. I had these cups saved on my computer and I thought that was a perfect combination of two of my hobbies: craft and coffee! After printing my page I started coloring the cups with markers (no special brand). After everything was colored and doodled around the sentiment and handdrew the border I glued the color page to acolored background. It looked nice, but I missed something. So I cut out some silver spoons to add. This is a die from Joy crafts (Afternoon Tea set). So to finishe the page, which is7,5 x 8,5 inch, I added the spoons and also some sticky gemstones to the cups. This makes it all come more alive! I used a trip of paper folded in half and glued to the background as a stand for my project. I am quite happy with the result. It will get a good place in my craftroom! All details on the color challenge can be found here: The Daily Marker. Thank you for looking and have a creative day!
