If you are encouraged to participate in the Hands 2 Help program, you can read all about it HERE I quilted the 2 tops shared last week for Hands 2 Help program and this week I'm quilting on the Phoenix top made last year with GE Quilt Designs quilt along. That quilt is a lap size and will also go for Hands 2 Help. This one is the 2nd quilt made on behalf of Hands2Help. The first was the red and pink 3-part triangle quilt and free pattern shared HERE . Quilt # 2 is a Grandmas Goodness pattern from GE Quilt Designs; so easy and fun to make. I adjustment the measurements to accommodate my favorite child size of 46 x 58. It has a cotton batting and a fun sporty fleece print on the back Here is quilt # 3. This pattern is called Step by Step by the irish quilter.com. I also adjusted the measurements to finish at 46 x 58. The center panel is images of dinosaurs. Apparently I bought too much of this dinosaur fabric, so I used a big piece for the backing and it also has a cotton batting. Both quilts were quilted with Omni thread on top and Bottom Line gray in the bobbin. I used rulers and free motion quilting for both projects. I'm joining these linky parties this week. Be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.

When the fabric is the star and you want to keep the pattern simple, quick and easy - but still interesting!
I would call it the Week From Hell, but it would more accurately be described as the week from the North Pole. Frankly, though, some of hell’s warmth would be welcomed about now! LOL. Beginning Tuesday afternoon and continuing through all of Wednesday, the Salt Lake Valley was plastered with at least 18” of snow on the valley floor. The schools reverted to online classes and many businesses were closed. Those people who live on the benches (foothills) of the mountains that surround the valley got even greater accumulations, and the mountain communities were inundated. I think we’ll have no major water issues this year, but snow loads on roofs and trees and plants has been concerning. I’ve been out to brush off my rose bushes a couple times. I didn’t take pictures because I’m a dunce at those things. The frigid, moist air seems to have finally permeated the basement where my studio is, and I can’t seem to get warm. Perhaps, however, it’s the loss of 40 pounds of insulating weight? I’ve been wearing three pair of socks at a time, plus two to three layers of tops / sweaters. Some days I just couldn’t bear to sew, even with the supplemental studio space heater going, so my production, like my weight, is down. But I do have a few things to show you. I finished 10 pink crumb candy blocks. I will put these in with the other colors of crumb candy blocks, because everyone likes pink candy or bubblegum, right? The rest of my crumbs went into making a row of crumbs 4” tall by 40” wide, which I added to the top of The Creature From the Pink Circus quilt top. That little quilt top is sandwiched up and waiting to be quilted in the next week. My primary focus was layering and then quilting two more lovely Community Quilt tops that were sent to me by my friend McGill in SC. Her kids quilts are always such beautiful eye candy and a joy to quilt. As I quilted this cheerful 40x50” quilt using loops and hearts, I had fun checking out all her various scraps. There were so many that I have also had over the years, so it was like sharing a walk down memory lane! Thanks, McGill! Isn’t the backing pretty? This second quilt from McGill is my favorite. I am so in love with the saturated colors and lovely Tula Pink fabrics. It measures 43x45”. This was quilted with a basic stipple; light gray on the front and a medium gray on the back. The binding was a fun piece of Allison Glass SunPrint fabric I had in my stash. I love how the colors and intensity match the front and pop on the back. On Friday I had my annual mammogram in the morning. I’m glad that’s over for another year. At noon I took my son Ryan to an eye surgery re-check appointment. He had a lasik-type procedure done the day prior and wasn’t cleared to drive until the re-check. We then went out to lunch and just had a great few hours talking and hanging out. The only other thing I managed to accomplish this week was to work on fixing up these donation blocks. They were given to me from our Quilts for Kids chapter to “do something with”. On three of them I had to replace stained white background pieces. Two blocks needed to be torn apart and the piecing corrected. The last problem block is the basket block at the center top. The basket is portion is barely visible due to poor contrast. I had a scrap of yellow print to replace it, but the fabrics and quilt tops in The Cubbyholes of Shame were hissing and booing (the hooligans!), wanting me to be done with the dang thing already. So the blocks are in Time Out until I make my decision. I’d love to hear what you think…. Replace the basket or not? Have a good week! Linking up to Scrappy Saturday at Angela’s So Scrappy blog.
A couple of weeks ago, I started a little scrap quilt using 2½” squares and leftover binding ends that I couldn’t seem to throw out. I showed my process for partial seams in making those super simple but interesting blocks in that week's blog post, Partial to Scraps!I made a total of sixteen blocks that ended up 6½” square. Now, to figure out a layout 🙂I decided on four rows of four blocks to make a square quilt. I thought it would be more interesting to put the blocks on point.… and that meant
