Have you ever started working on a project and just could not stop until you got done? That’s what happened to me yesterday. I had an idea for this little fox applique to put on a modern stripe quilt that would be perfect for a little person and once I got the applique cut out I couln’t stop. So at 12:30 last night I finished this Quilt As You Go version of a striped quilt with the Little Fox Applique. I love him. This is two quilts in a row now that I am crazy about. Oh my! What to do next? (And check out the backing I used on this one. Isn’t it cute too???!!!)

Sometimes you have thouse students who really want to learn and things get in the way and slow them down. This happened a couple of times in the course of this past year as we made The Sampler Quilt as You Go project at The Studio in Sierra’s class. But we kept moving ahead and she got that beautiful quilt finished. We met the day after Christmas for a few hours to get it all together and she took it home to bind and now it’s done so she can send it to the lucky recipient. Great job Sierra. I love the colors and can’t wait to see what you do next.

This is a photo of the completed quilt with binding. The color looks so different but the border really is grey as in the photo of Sierra above holding the quilt but you can get a look at it here.

Connie’s Sampler Quilt turned out GREAT! Nice job lady. It’s beautiful. Connie is in the 4th group of quilters who took our Sampler Quilt Block of the Month class. They met yesterday to work on their quilts. Scheduling conflicts threw off our schedule for a few months but everyone was able to come yesterday and almost everyone is finished. Connie was the first to get hers finished and we were all so proud of her work. Quilting is such fun. Watch for more classes coming up at the first of the year.

A few weeks ago I introduced a new series of quilts that I had designed, all based on NOT including any half-square triangles. My good friend, Wilma, hates making half-square triangles so I designed this group of quilts with her in mind and decided to call it The Wilma Series. (See and read about that here.) I just finished one of the designs this afternoon. I love the colors and the modern feel to this quilt. It was put together using the Quilt As You Go method. It went really fast!

Our Thursday Night Quilters completed their Sampler Quilts last night. Samantha, Shannon and Jillian are shown here with their amazing works. We missed Becky and Paula last night but look forward to seeing their finished quilts too. This was such a fun group of ladies…always eager to learn more and always ready to laugh. We had a great year quilting together! If you would like to learn more about quilting and sewing watch for our upcoming classes. We have a new garment series beginning soon.

At yesterday’s Row Quilt class while some of our quilters finished up their blocks, Janet started assembling her quilt rows. Isn’t it gorgeous???!!!! I just love how it is turning out. And Janet is doing a beautiful job on it. Can you believe she has just started quilting recently while attending The Studio’s Quilt as You Go classes? I can’t wait to see it when she gets the other half on it along with the border and binding. The color and fabric choices are so nice. It’s going to be fabulous!!!! Great work Janet.

A New Quilt Series – Wilma

Last night I worked on the designs of a new quilt series. The thing that makes it special is that it has no half square triangles in it. My friend Wilma is NOT a fan of half square triangles so I am calling this collection Wilma…..just for her! LOL! Patterns will be available soon as well as a class to teach an “On Point” quilt using the Quilt as You Go method.
