1. Tic Tac Hashtag - a new pattern. Here is a picture of my finished quilt top for Tic Tac Hashtag in the baby size. I really like the simplicity of this pattern and am trying to figure out a backing and quilting plan for it, any suggestions? (I think that this quilt would be great in school or sports team colors).
3. Foothills Piecemakers Quilt Guild Challenge Quilt - In my quilt guild we have a challenge to make a word mini quilt (no side larger than 30"). The quilt must have letters and words on it (applique, text prints, painted, etc). I can't show you the whole quilt until the reveal at the quilt guild meeting next Thursday, but I promise that next Friday I will share the whole mini quilt and the story behind it.
4. Out To Sea - The latest pattern and quilt I have started is called Out To Sea in a queen size for my son's bed. I was originally going to make a lap size version, but as soon as my son saw it he asked if it could be his. I ordered some more fabric and have been making tons of HST ever since, pictured below are about 1/3 of the amount I have to make. This quilt finishing at about 90" x 90" will be my largest quilt yet.
So there are just a few things that I am working on right now...thanks for stopping by!
I'm Linking up to WIP at Freshly Pieced, Blossom Heart Quilts, Quilt Story Fabric Tuesday, and Let's Bee Social over at Sew Fresh Quilts.
Sweet baby quilt top, Cheryl! How to quilt it? Hmmm... I have been on a spiral quilting kick lately and so that is the only suggestion I can come up with! Cute sneak peek of the mini quilt - the binding choice is my fave of all the text prints I can see. Love those blue and green hst's. What a load of work they are, but sew worth it!
ReplyDeleteLove your Hashtag quilt maybe a simple edge to edge would be good, Your word mini quilt is very cute cant wait to see it.
ReplyDeleteLovely design...I really like it like it is and probably would not do an overall design on it. Had a similar issue with one of my designs a while back and did a simple motif in my white spaces . In your case I would use the white space next to the red block (can't quite see which block is which) and fill them up with some funky motif stitched in white, just to give it some texture without distracting from the overall design.
ReplyDeleteDropping by from Let's Bee Social - do love your Hashtag quilt - the colours against the white are so crisp, your other projects look like they're going to be really interesting too :D
ReplyDeletestopping by from lets bee social Your hashtag quilt would be perfect for a teenager or college dorm and with the teams colors-perfect. Your word quilt looks fun too
ReplyDeleteI love the graphic quality of Tic Tac Hashtag - clean lines and a simple palette. Maybe a navy floral for the back and simple diagonal cross hatch for the quilting? Looks great!
ReplyDeleteI love the Tic Tac Hashtag - it is so crisp and striking.
