Come on in and join me in a rug cuttin happy dance! It's so exciting to finally have this finished. The idea for the quilt started well over a year ago. The tulips are from Lori Holt's book Quilty Fun. However I started this quilt before her book was published. She originally gave the pattern on her blog for free during a row along. So I saved it. Of course I bought her book anyway with the intentions of making one of her patterns. But you know me...I can't stick to a pattern. In the book it calls for one tulip as a block. Using 4 tulips and some math I came up with the Promenading Tulips block. (not my tree, its Charles front yard) When I get an idea for a quilt it's just that...an idea. The details are always changing and morphing. You can read more about how I came up with the different elements of this quilt here and here. Planning the quilting is another hurdle. The same technique is used in this process which means I do the quilt stare and keep my eyes open when surfing the web. With the inner scalloped border I knew I wanted the quilting to be dense enough to make the 3D effect really stand up, but I didn't want a quilt that was a stiff as board with that quilted to death feel. Finding that balance somewhere in the middle. The decision was made to leave some "poofy" areas towards the center of the quilt. Now I bet you all are wondering about this truck. Ain't she a beauty! There's a story behind her too. A few months ago I was on my way to momma's, of course I always take the long way, winding through the country roads and enjoying the scenery. My meandering takes me through a small town of Providence. It's one of those 4 way stop towns with a church and a few houses. Well I spot this truck (not for sale at the time), how could you not see the bright yellow paint and orange wheel rims. I told myself should I ever drive by and see the owner outside I'd stop and ask permission to use his truck as a quilt prop. Well low and behold about a month later Charles and his wife were standing there just waiting on me! I whipped my ole hunk of junk up in the drive and introduced myself. You never know if people are going to welcome you or not when it comes to country folk, some live out here because they don't like people. But Charles and his wife were the good kind of country folk, telling me to feel free to use the old truck whenever I wanted. They've recently put it up for sale, and I'd love to take it home but....all I can do is wish and dream. Thanks Charles for letting me drool all over your girl! Okay let's get back to the quilt. You've gotta have crosshatching and feathers in every quilt, right? I love the traditional look from the simple crosshatched blocks. The yo-yo placement was marked with blue water soluble pen before quilting. After the quilt was quilted the yo-yo's were stitched in place with a few tack stitches. I wanted to the the 3D effect on those also. POST EDIT on 11-6-2015 The border technique used for this quilt is from the book "Just Around the Corner, by Kari Carr". If your looking for the Inner Scallop border tutorial on my blog, I've removed it, you can read more about it here. The backing is vintage baby prints from my stash. Might as well make the whole quilt scrappy! Thanks for stopping by and dancing with me today! This post has been edited on 5/13/2015 due the huge response in the last couple of weeks.

Let me show you how to combine my "Paper Tulips" and "Fairy Sisters" patterns for an extra cute spring quilt!
A month or so ago our guild brought a member of the Chicago School of Fusing to speak and teach, Frieda Anderson. A lovely lady, she makes happy quilts from her own hand dyed fabric. Beautiful, bright clear colors, my favorite kind. I signed up for her class. For years now, I've thought of fusing as the "F" word. (What were you thinking, hmm?) I cast my lot with the turned edge crowd and never looked back. But, I have to admit, I take classes to observe the teacher as much to learn a technique. I am always looking to improve my teaching skills. By watching other teachers teach, I can learn new strategies, and, sometimes, learn what not to do. For the class, our guild chose Frieda's Trumpeting Spring project. Just about half the class chose the daffodils, I went for the tulips. Being constitutionally incapable of following instructions, it didn't take long for me to veer off path. I've been experiments with subtle background accents behind my applique, so I tried it here as well. At this stage it's all fused and I'm about to start the hand embroidery. I didn't do nearly as much as I'd planned because pulling a needle through all those layers of fabric and Wonder Under was anything but fun. What I did fall in love with was the Madeira 30 weight rayon thread. Oh my! It was lovely! It looked thicker than 30 weight, but sewed out easily with a size 90/14 needle. The twist gives the thread incredible stitch definition. Frieda only had a few colors, but I bought my usual rainbow. Isn't it gorgeous? I'll be looking to increase my stash of these fantastic threads. The fusing part was fun. It was very easy to be spontaneous. The delphiniums and their tiny leaves were free cut from small squares of fused fabric. Frieda's hand dyed fabrics had wonderful gradations. It was fun to "shop" around each piece of fabric for just the right color and shade. Here it is, a lousy picture of it all finished. Well, almost finished, with just the binding to turn. Have I been converted? No way. As I was working on it, I was so tempted to break out the Wash Away Applique Sheets and do some free cutting and glue basting with the shapes. But I was a good girl and played by Frieda's rules. (Mostly, anyway.) It will hang in one of the boys' rooms turned guest room. You know, the class cost me about fifty bucks, including the kit fee. Guild classes are such a great value. I enjoy sampling techniques that are new to me. You never know when you'll find your new favorite thing. Or, perhaps you'll learn you'll never want to try that again. Both lessons are valid.

Autumnal Tulips is a true blue finish now! This has been such a sweet quilt to work on, I almost didn't want it to be finished up. How is it that some quilts start out so impulsively but then somehow end up being an all time fave? The finished quilt This is a quilt that has generated quite a bit of interest, here and also on Pinterest {not that I follow any of that very closely}. Surprisingly, a couple people have also requested a pattern. A full view Picture me scrunching up my face and making a 'who, me?' look and you know that's not going to happen. I'm terrible at making patterns, don't have the tools to do it properly and honestly, just don't want to take the time to fine tune all the details. Looking closely However, in light of the fact that it's close to Christmas and this year has been a total buzzkill, I decided to trace all the applique templates onto a piece of paper and save it as a PDF file. Just for YOU! Thank you to all my wonderfully supportive readers who stick with me through good quilts and sometimes, even the bad. I love you for that. Crumpled quilty goodness No, I can't figure out how to embed it into a post or load it somewhere onto my blog. After about an hour of trying I completely gave up. Techy stuff is so not my area of expertise and I have better things to do with my time right now! Ready for a good snuggle! So here's the deal. I'm offering you a Very Merry Christmas gift from Quilty Folk! If you want to have a copy of the Autumnal Tulips applique templates, leave a request in the comments below or drop me an email. It's that simple. I will attach the pdf file with my return email and then you can get started on your own version of this sweet, spunky quilt! Wouldn't it look yummy in pink and/or red poinsettia colors too? This offer is good through December 25th, but I might need until January 1st to get caught up on all the emails. Life is kinda crazy around here during the best of times! A few notes to consider: This is NOT a pdf total quilt 'pattern', simply the templates for applique parts and pieces. Obviously they'll work better if you trace the shapes onto template plastic or freezer paper before using. This is not a huge quilt. My quilt ended up being 48 3/4" x 57 1/2" after being washed and dried! There are 30-8" tulips blocks in my version. Cut the background fabrics out at 8 1/2" x 8 1/2". I included a template for the stem, but it's actually easier to make a long tube of bias or not bias stem {either one will work here} and further cut to size in regards to the length. Cut stem fabric out at 1 5/8" wide in long lengths. Sew the lengths together and then further sew into a very long tube with an extremely scant seam. Iron the tube with the seam at the middle at the back. Cut 30 stems at approx. 4 1/4" long each. Sashing and cornerstone squares are cut out at 1 3/4" wide. Outside border fabric is cut out at 3 1/2" wide. That's all the guidance you get, but I'm pretty sure most will be off and running with something amazingly unique and totally different from the quilt pictured! For the purposes of this giveaway, be sure to leave a return email in your 'request' comment. If you do not request the pdf file, I will assume you don't want it. Remember, blogger does not always play nicely with others these days, and a lot of comments can easily end up being 'no reply'. Even if your comments always made it thru to my email a year ago! What no-reply means is, I have no way to contact you! ZERO! If you have not heard back from me by January 1st, then it might be best to email me personally at audkateaster at gmail dot com. Crossing my fingers this actually works!
Dubai is full of expatriates – approximately 85% of the population is from abroad. Which means while great friends are found, very often they also have to leave to return to their home country or their next destination. Nearly 2 years ago - 4 quilters became true friends. Early in 2020 year we found out that our dear friend Nette would be returning to Australia in June. So the other three of us got together and forged a plan to make a quilt as a farewell gift. We started this project in mid-February 2020. Our original thought was that it would be a team project, meeting regularly to swap blocks and stitch different stages of the project together. We decided to do the Totally Tulips quilt from Missouri Star Quilt Company. We also wanted to share a little part of us with Nette, so we decided to do a stash buster project, using fabrics we thought we true to each of our style of quilting. The project has big blocks, which meant it showed off the prints really well. Never did we imagine a pandemic. So like the rest of the world, we were faced with quarantine, self-isolation, home-schooling, home-office and safety restrictions to move through the city. We could share the load and stitch up our share of blocks no problem. We found a way to drop off blocks and fabrics while on our way for essential groceries – leaving them at the front doors. We even had quilting design options laid out in the back of one of the cars, while the owner stayed inside the house and talked through the options from her window. Then suddenly, in May we found out that Nette’s moving boxes were going in 4 days! Opps we still were in safety restrictions and we still had the border and binding to do. With the deadline approaching for her departure, we also had to figure out a way to gift it to Nette. So we planned a Zoom call for the Saturday morning. Now to put the timeline in perspective – the Totally Tulips quilt is quite big, 89”x90” so it is a decent size to try and complete. Always up for a challenge, I assured my friends with then less than 24 hours to go I would have it done! I woke up at 5 am and started. By 4 pm, I had finished the borders and I was up to stitching the binding down. I am not particularly fast at this but was determined to hand-stitch it down, my favourite method. By 10 pm I was finished. With a sigh of relief, we would be ready for the zoom gifting the next morning. So while parked outside her building, I started the zoom call. The 4 of us were on – doing our normal chatter – she had no idea, until we asked her husband to come outside so I could give him the parcel. He kindly obliged, like so many quilting husbands, he dashed downstairs, and quickly run back up. There he was back in their apartment with the parcel. As she opened the quilt – there were tears from all of us. There is something extra special about a quilter gifting or receiving a quilt from another quilter. I think it is the overwhelming joy from receiving such a treasured gift, but also the knowledge of understanding how much love goes into that gift while taking each stitch. Photo courtesy of @NetteP - the Totally Tulips quilt in it's new home. Now for the details of this quilt Pattern: Totally Tulips by Missouri Star Quilt Company. Although the pattern uses 10
