Since I just posted my keyhole runner, I thought you might like to see my keyhole quilt…the pattern usually has the blocks all lined up but I like to stagger them …this is a great scrap buster...
Remember this quilt? Well, it has been sitting on my ironing board now for a few months. The other day, I took the "keyholes" and was amazed how quickly they became these 9 blocks. Today I ironed them. Do you like my new use for leftover garage sale stickers? After I took the picture, I decided to make them all facing the top correctly. Do you ever get a 'mental sewing block'....you know, where you convince yourself that something is going to be much harder and frustrating than it actually is? I can think of a few times I did this. . .like this, or like this, this, and for some reason I had convinced myself that these blocks wouldn't come together well because you had to partially sew down one seam, then put on another rectangle and so on until you came back to the first and finished sewing it. Now, I ask you....why did I stew about this forever? IT WAS A PIECE OF CAKE! These blocks came together better than another I can think of. So, now you all know that when I set a project aside, it is because I have a mental block. Onto other family news, we had our last soccer game of the season. Here buddy is stretching. I think there is nothing cuter than 4 year olds stretching. Can you feel the burn? LOL This shot is right before buddy scored. He had 5 goals on Saturday, which I thought was pretty sweet. Do you see the yellow practice pinnies? Well, Saturday's game didn't go so well because it was a constant. . .'I don't want to be yellow, I want to be white.' My poor husband had to try to please everyone (most of which needed a nap) while keeping the game going. I am not sure what he is doing here. . .LOL. Afterwards, they had pizza, balloons, and trophies. Buddy was thrilled to get his 'first' trophy.
Marie pieced this great quilt called Keyhole, a pattern by Missouri Star Quilt Company. She used batik fabrics in shades of light to dark brown. I quilted it with the Mimosa pantograph, used a peachy beige So Fine thread and Quilters Dream Blend batting.
I had a set of 2 1/2" strips and some other fabrics that I found to coordinate with them that I wanted to use. I drew out the design during break at work and showed it to the other girls. I went home at lunch and brought the fabric back to show them what I wanted to use. That was the Thursday before Memorial weekend. I brought the pieced top back on Tuesday. It went together pretty fast.

This lovely quilt is a variation of the Keyhole quilt pattern and was made by Dorothy. It is a great pattern for Jelly Rolls. Or you could use your leftover strips from other projects for a scrappy look. Grey and yellow always look so elegant together, don't you agree? Dorothy chose to have her project

I made this quilt using a jelly roll and some yardage I purchased last year during Missouri Star Quilt Company's black Friday sale. Coincidentally, I used MSQC's pattern called Keyhole from one of their magazines to make the quilt top. The pattern requires a jelly roll and a little over 1 yard of fabric for the borders so it sure was a perfect match. The fabric is from Sweetwater's Authentic collection and the modern fabric goes well with the modern pattern. I quilted this using a pantograph called Bauhaus Baby. It adds another modern element to the quilt. I used a slate gray variegated thread to make the stitches show. My daughter loves the colors in the quilt. Green is her favorite. I think I will have to wrap this up and make it a Christmas gift for her.
