Think about you, quilting. Pair that image with your wildest, most wouldn’t-it-be-amazing dream. What does your marvel of a quilting experience look like? For astronaut Karen Nyberg, her quilting adventure was a literal out-of-this world event: making a quilt block in orbit, on the International Space Station. Wow! Inspiration doesn’t come on a scale much …
For a couple of months now, I have been trying to land on a block design for my next Rainbow Scrap Challenge quilt. There were some types of fabric scraps I really wanted to focus on so I needed a block that had spaces for them. I wanted to clean out some scraps with multiple colors and low volumes that had a lot of color in them. I finally found a block that was going to work perfectly for what I wanted (thanks to Cathy and Diann). My blocks look very different than theirs because they are using all low volume prints and making theirs far more scrappy. I am using three fabrics on each block - the RSC color in the center, two low volume prints and two darker prints. In no time at all, I made ten 6.5" blocks out of my pink bin. I don't "love" them all. Some have better contrast than others but I am okay with that. In the end, I should be able to find a place for them all. It has been ages since I made such a small RSC block. And I laugh along with many of you, because I know this is large for some. It is going to be fun to see this block in more colors and see what layout will present itself. I love a new quilt start! ********************************************* It is now your turn to share what you are making with scraps.

How to Make an Easy Patchwork Quilt. It's easy and makes a great beginning quilt project.
I don't know why, but generally, the first color I look for in a background fabric is cream or something very neutral. Boring perhaps, but that's just the way it is around here. Then last summer, when we took our trip to Oklahoma, this quilt was the one I dragged around. 4 blocks of Vintage Red done I had lots of opportunity to study it as it was always draped across my lap helping me to endure the freezing cold temps of our vehicle {my husband insists on that}. And you know what? I adore the pieced together background of the applique blocks. Even now. And even though all the pieced fabrics are cream or a variation of that, they are different. They help make the quilt so much more special to me! So why don't I do more of that I kept thinking? You're probably thinking 'why doesn't she move away from cream as a background altogether', but hey! we all have our issues! And I've been trying to figure out how to incorporate a little more of that background piecing into my quilting ever since. Which brings us to this Vintage Red project I've started. I've wanted to use a classic {vintage} solid red in one of my quilts for years and years. Mostly I had vague thoughts of something scrappy like the picture below, nothing too precise or studied. In anticipation of that day, I bought about 3 yards of the 'perfect' red {pretty much the first time I stumbled across some} which would be oh... about 5 yrs ago? http://www.make-it-do.com/sew-it/oh-my-stars-mr-president/ You gotta know the perfect vintage red is not too cherry red or too tomato red and it's actually very hard to find. The sad thing is, I've stole little bits from that 3 yards of fabric until I was worried there wouldn't be enough for the real project, whatever that ended up being. I guess this 'Vintage Red' project with the funky applique is? I've already got 20 background blocks prepped and ready to go plus all the applique bits. But I may stop at 16 blocks, still undecided about that. The main thing is this, the very next time I stumble upon the perfect vintage red fabric, I need to go ahead and buy the whole bolt. There is definitely more of this color in my future.....

This is Marg’s Sampler quilt which was a guild project from 2005 and I have quilted many of these quilts over the years. Marg asked for light custom quilting to highlight the piecing. I tried a double line piano key border which I really like to quilt as your mainly traveling in the outer edge and not in the inner border seam like with normal piano keys. Free hand curls in the sashing and lots of CC’s, loops and curls in the blocks. Quilters Dream Blend batting and So Fine thread.
