Pinwheel Charity Quilt - FINISHED!

-
Image
The amazing Jo at Jo's Country Junction  does a ton of wonderful work doing long-arm for charity quilts.  After my friend, Natalie, and I purchased our long-arm, we both wanted to help do charity work, so I reached out to Jo to see if she needed some assistance.  She sent along five quilt tops, along with backings and bindings, and Natalie and I got to work! This first finish is a wonderful, happy, bright pinwheel quilt, made by Sharon Judkins of Hatfield, Arkansas.   (And special thanks to my 11 year old for photographing - she's working on photography for her 4-H projects, and wanted to help out in her own way!) Natalie did the long-arm work on this one.  Each pinwheel got it's own spiral, and there are spirals in all the sashing and borders.  Natalie made sure to get a pinwheel in cornerstone, as well. It was bound in a lovely blue, with the ladies in our local quilt guild stepping up to do the actual binding work.  This one will ...

Kate Spain Charm Swap Finish!

Quite a while ago, I participated in a Kate Spain Charm Swap over at Quilts from my Crayon Box .  I just loved the assortment I got back!  So colorful and bright, and so cheery to just have in a stack and pet.  But I decided to actually use them all.  I wanted a pattern that would really show off the variety of fabrics, and this one from Moda Bake Shop seemed to be a great fit.  I enlarged it to use up all the charms.  It's almost a complete charm quilt - I had to add in just a few duplicates to make enough squares.  I absolutely love the final result! The fabrics have such great variety I didn't really have to consciously do any fabric placement - they all looked good together! I used one of my favorites from terrain for the cornerstones and binding.  The quilter did a great job - outlined the stars and added a small flower to the center of each, with a moderately tight stipple throughout the rest.  I...

Making Plans

Making plans  - 2020 Version! These are in no particular order: Disco by Jaybird Quilts.  This is probably going to be a little more time consuming on the layout and planning front.  But it should be a fun one to do.  Showering Stars: It should go together quickly and be a good charity quilt.  Borealis by Frond - LOVE those fabrics, and I doubt I'll be able to give this one away!  Paper pieced, and it's going to take a while but I ADORE this quilt.  Punked Posies, by Frond again.  This shouldn't take long to put together, it's the quilting that will take the time on this one.  I really need to sign up for one of their thread punk classes to get some more ideas before I tackle this one.  Folding Screen, with more Frond (do you sense a theme??): This one is lower on the list than the others.  Maybe a good one for retreat? Shade Garden by Frond: Another one that shouldn't be hard to put together, but I nee...
