Funnily enough I have had 3 requests for help with quilt-as-you-go techniques via email & twitter this week! So I thought I would do a quick post outlining two different methods. This enables you to quilt blocks as you go along, and then put them all together at the end. It avoids the need to cram great big quilts through your sewing machine! The method you choose can be determined by the result you want to achieve: do you want sashing as part of the design or not! Whichever method you choose, you want to avoid quilting all the way to the edges of your block because you will need to pull the edges back a little to put them together. Quilt as you go with sashing. This lap quilt utilises sashing as a technique to sew your blocks together. There are other quilt-as-you-go methods that do not use sashing but I use it here because it adds a uniformity to the design. For the front sashing – you will need 1 inch wide strips, and for the back you will need 1 ¾ inch strips. Fold the back strip in half and press lengthwise. Pin the raw edge of the strip to the back of your block, and the front strip is pinned right sides together to the front of the block (see picture). Sew an accurate ¼ seam so that the back sashing, the block and the front sashing are now stitched together. Fold the front sashing back and press. Now pin the raw edge of the front sashing to the next block front sides together (as in picture). Sew with an accurate ¼ inch seam (the backing fabric in this picture is white!). Now lay the two blocks flat with the right sides up and press the front sashing flat. Turn the blocks over and sew the back sashing onto the back of the block using a ladder stitch as seen in the image. Continue sashing the whole quilt. Quilt as you go without sashing. This method does not use sashing. I didn't want sashing to distort my log cabin so this method was perfect. First, trim your squares to your required size (remember the seam allowance!). Take your two blocks and place them face down. Pin the backing and the wadding back out of the way. Now place the blocks right sides together, sew the front pieces together with a ¼ seam and press the seam flat (as shown in the picture below). Trim the wadding carefully so that it will lie flat. Now lay one piece of the backing flat. Turn the second piece under with a scant ¼ inch seam and pin in place. Slip stitch the pinned seam in place keeping the stitches small so that they will not show. Continue using this method to sew the rest of the row. Then continue and sew the rows together. So now you are done! There you are - two different ways of putting together your blocks once you have quilted them! I hope you find this useful and it gets you having a go!!!
The 'Mermaids' shirt from German brand, Micky Oye, is described by the company as 'showing the mystical underwater life, where mermaids and other sea creatures live peacefully together', and, in our opinion, is the perfect blend of deep and bold colours, treated with an iconic, laid back Aloha feel. This traditional relaxed fit shirt is cut from a luxurious blend of viscose and rayon, which feels supremely comfortable against the skin, while the boxy shape allows for superb breathability. An open collar adds to this shirt’s laid back style, and coconut buttons create an added touch of heritage authenticity. Each shirt comes neatly packed in it’s own beautifully designed storage box. Vintage/boxy fit Rayon fabric Coconut buttons Open collar Custom packaging Product Code: M024-103 Made in Germany

In the previous post I mentioned that for my CQJP2015 project I had chosen Sharon Boggin's Block 28 from the "I dropped the button box quilt". All these block patterns can be found here They are a fabulous resource and Sharon is so generous to make them available.. She has by far been the biggest influence on my crazy quilting and I can never say enough kind words about her. I received a comment this morning from a newby that she was overwhelmed by the number of patterns available and thought she just might pick a number at random... NO NO NO... There are things to consider. First I chose number 28 because it has more patches than I usually do.... (because I have so many fabrics for this project). It is also a very balanced block with the patches at random to each other.. If it were my first block I might chose one with fewer patches. This block is also well balanced with a random layout. In fact this is very similar to the one I used for my Morris block. For that I had very wild graphic fabrics and lots of images so I chose a simpler block ... But there are other factors also... and many times it is just a personal preference. I mentioned I liked the patches in a random pattern so I would not pick this block with all the patches in a row.... There are two things I always avoid and that are patterns that will end up with small awkward corner patches... like patch #8 here.. If I were to use this pattern I would make that patch larger to begin with. In fact I just worked on a block in a recent RR that had 3 tiny difficult corner patches. I think I blogged about it.. So just be sure to look at all patches when considering a pattern.... The second thing to be aware of is where seams intersect. I try to avoid blocks where several seams come together like where pieces 4 & 5 meet at piece 6. Depending on your fabrics and your skill level, this could be problematic. Here your have seam 5 & 4 coming to piece 7 dangerously close to where you are also most likely have a seam allowance. Multiple converging seams often have bulk that is hard to conceal and stitch through... Keep an eye out for them. This is a great block but I would divide both pieces 5 and 6 into two sections to make it more balanced... Keep in mind that you can always do that to any of the patches if you think ahead. My second choice when I was choosing for this project was # 52 except I would divide piece 6 into two pieces... I have printed it to use in the future... Janet Stauffacher also posts crazy quilt patterns. Her blocks have allowed for an image. She has a Free Crazy Quilt Block Patterns board at Pinterest at http://www.pinterest.com/j…/free-crazy-quilt-block-patterns/ Be sure to check hers also.. I did this post for Mary Ann, but if you think you are going to be a paper piecer like me, this post is for you also... p.s. I actually have seen IN PERSON the "I dropped the button box" quilt and have endless photos of it...
