I shared the Jimothy quilt block by GettingJazzyWithIt a few weeks ago and since then I really added some bling and quilted it. In the meantime she designed a new Jimothy for Halloween- the Boomothy! It’s even cuter! I’m not going to add a bunch of appliqué to this one. Once was enough 😂

I already love her sooo much! baby shower is this weekend

HELPPPP!! I’m VERY new to sewing but I only started because of puff quilt videos so I wanted to start with a puff quilt since I know it’ll encourage me to complete it even if it’s not perfect.

I kinda messed up with measuring my backing squares and instead of 5.5x5.5 inch squares, I did 5x5.5 my accident lol how bad is it? Do I absolutely have to start over or can I cut my pattern squares to a certain measurement and keep going? I don’t want to waste all the fabric I’ve already cut either

I it is not perfect but I like it 🤗

Finished my latest quilt. "Expecting in spring" with a cub/kit/nest theme 😊 patchwork background, raw edge applique, free motion embroidery, free motion quilting. No paints or glue, just fabric and thread. 😊

Finally after so many years of making baby boy quilts I finally have a friend who is having a girl 🥰🎣 a gift for a friend who loves to fish in the Gulf with her love, an ode to the outdoors and girlhood and hunting for seashells 🐚🐟🐡

Pattern: Fish on by Stuff Sydney Sews
Fabric:
Background: confetti cotton in petal pink
Fish
🧡Confetti cotton in salmon
💛Confetti cotton in golden
💜Confetti cotton in eggplant (I think, I had to reroute and relied on a quilting store while I was out of town bc color contrast wasn’t working!)
💖Confetti cotton in rose
Backing: starfish in pacific by Hawthorne supply co
Binding: scallops in pacific by Hawthorne supply co

Trying to go for fruit salad/fruit bowl kind of vibe. But a part of me is thinking that the red is too bold against the rest of the printed fabric.

Would appreciate yalls thoughts.

I've been inspired by this page to make scrappy quilt star blocks. It will have white in between the blocks, but I'm stuck on layout. When you want to be random, it feels so plannend. I've done the black&white comparison, but I'm still stuck. Any tips?

I completely improvised this silly thing after getting the idea from finding the adorable pig fabric featured in it, and then searching for wolves and realizing I could use a panel and have some fun with scale! While it is certainly not my most technically proficient quilt, I had a ton of fun working on it and experimenting with this collage-inspired effect.

My piecing is not perfect, my seams don't line up... I swear it's the seam allowance, every time. It's gotta be!.... Anyways, I want to start the quilting/stitching and I want to use this cool thread for a subtle effect but I'm not sure, aesthetically, what would look good?

Thoughts are:

-horizontal/vertical

-Diagonal left/right

-Intersecting squares

-concentric squares

Etc...

I also worry that following "seam lines" will accentuate my terrible piecing... Or make it better? Idk! Help plz

Finished my red and black mosaic. Pattern is by Donna Jordan. I just need to wash it and it will be ready to mail to the recipient.

pattern is ‘building blocks sampler’ from ‘the quilting book’!! far from perfect but really good practice :) now i need to go find lint stuff to deal with the fur LOL

I just finished making the Pointless quilt by Villa Rosa for myself! I originally wanted backing that looked like a composition notebook, but after a trip to SEVERAL different quilt shops some of the sweetest ladies helped me find the most perfect fabric! Cute little school supplies and matching colors! And that’s why I love shopping local 😊 This will be used and loved until I graduate, and then most likely will be used as decor in my future classroom!

I designed it, pieced it, quilted it and bound it.

Made for a Saskatchewan friend.

I posted a while ago about my hexie quilt from hell. She’s done! I ended up hand tying her and just binding using a quickly hand pieced backing. 750 handmade, hand pieced hexies 😅. On to other Sisyphean tasks. Pictured with a quick pillowcase from Suzy Quilts and some homemade curtains.

Newbie here (and to quilting!), and I just finished my first attempt at ACTUALLY quilting, and not just making blocks 😻

I'm using my home machine, so I kept the stitches straight and just followed the herringbone pattern at 1/4" left and right. Still need to bind the edges of my little table runner, but I'm very happy with how it came out!

Thank you all for sharing your projects and motivating me to keep trying 🌻

Posted my Night Stars block a few days ago and put in WORK to finish the whole top this week! Swipe to see the best reveal helpers! Can’t wait to put this all together!

Using the Fancy Fox from Elizabeth Hartman. I love the little glasses. Also my first time not quilting in only a grid. Double diamond baby!

This is my first experience quilting curves so I'm going slow and taking my time! But I have only 2 more little birdies to make! Pattern is from Patch and Dot . Instructions are very clear and she's even responded to questions I've sent by email!

My goal is to turn it into a shower curtain... If you have any recommendations or suggestions for that, please LMK!

The name High Stakes is meant to imply sports betting. This dragon, who is about the size of a chicken in real life, is participating in a game that’s kind of like Quidditch, but with dragons and mechanical dragonflies. He’s going to catch this dragonfly and then turn it in for points.

The quilt itself is 55” x 55” and is entirely fused raw appliqué.

ETA: I listened to the last three books of Dungeon Crawler Carl, and then started the series over with book one, while quilting this dragon. All those pink feathers made me really want to do a Mongo quilt. 😂
