I love the look of Flying Geese Quilts and here are 15 inspiration projects to get you making a flying geese quilt of your own!
Welcome to the Let's Bee Social! First off..... I would like to THANK YOU for all the words of kindness shared in the comments from my Instagram post. It is quite clear to me that I have some pretty amazing friends out there - in this great big global world of the online quilting community - of which I am so proud to be a part of. Thank you! This happened day before yesterday..... Baby Raccoons were born! So fun and so tiny! These are half sized blocks that finish at 5" wide by 4" tall. I made them into a mini wall quilt to match the big quilt. No. These are not paper pieced. A little challenging, but doable. You ever get that feeling..... Like someone is watching you? I've had one of those weeks. For sure! My only regret with this project is that I wish there was more contrast between the black part of the eyes and the black part of the mask on these cuties. You can see on the orange block that the eyes consist of a white square and a black square to give the appearance that the raccoons are all looking to the right. But on the black and grey blocks, from a distance, it just looks like an offset white square. Organic Wavy Line Quilting..... COMPLETE! Hoping to get some outside photos today for my post on Friday when I will share all the details. Meanwhile the Raccoon pattern has been added to my shop. It's your turn for Show and Tell!!!

Freestyle applique leaves you with a million raw edges. And then, when it’s time for machine quilting, you have to carefully stitch along the perimeter of each piece. Frankly, it cramps my “free” style. Today I’ll show you how to add a layer of nylon netting over your quilt top. It’ll hold everything in place so your stitch patterns can be wild and free.

Hi y'all! I am Jessica and I blog over at My Inner Need to Create. I am a stay-at-home mother to 3 kids (8, 4 and 3) but once a upon a time I was a web and graphic designer. Though I am not doing this as my career right now, I see this side of my style bleed through into all my crafting. In fact I like to think of all the clothes I make as a canvas waiting for me to make it into a piece of art. I like to do this in many ways but love the look of appliquéing... Here is a recent appliquéd project: Rainbow Butterfly Skirt. To start I took a skirt of my daughter's to use as a pattern. I chose a thick gray knit as the fabric for the skirt (it was left over from my Superhero Circle Dress from Week 1 of the Sew Along). I just made a simple A-line skirt with no seem allowance for the top since I planned on using 1.5 inch elastic for the exposed waistband. After the front and back of the skirt was cut out, I sewed one of the side seems together and laid out the skirt flat. Next I drew out the butterfly design, I used the skirt shape to dictate the cropping on the butterfly. Take your design and trace it on to Iron-On Fusible Interfacing, make sure that you reverse the image! Iron the butterfly onto the black fabric. Next- cut it out. Peel off the paper from the back of the butterfly, you will need this for a template in a minute. For my butterfly I wanted a rainbow, but at this step you could use a cute print or a solid color. I choose my colors and sewed them together in 1.5 inch strips. After the strips are sewed together and ironed flat, use the paper backing off of the Iron-On Fusible Interfacing as a template and cut out the wings. Iron the black part of the butterfly onto the colors. Take another piece of interfacing and iron it onto the back of the entire butterfly. Then iron that piece onto the skirt. Next you have to zigzag around all the black raw edges. I sewed with black thread... but with a gray bobbin thread so that I didn't have to line the skirt. I sewed the skirt together at the other side then I attached the 1.5 inch black elastic as the waistband. The skirt turned out very eye-catching with the bold, big butterfly but it is a really simple jersey knit skirt with very limited sewing skill needed (the zigzagging around the pieces of the appliqué takes the most practice.) My daughter loves the skirt and wears it everytime she finds it in her drawer clean. I took these photos with her wearing a black leotard as her top but a 3 year old wearing a leotard all day is really not ideal for going to the bathroom. So I refashioned a slimming black tank top from an old (very old!) tube top if you hop over to my blog you can check out the tutorial! Thanks for inviting me to guest post during this month of Flicker Friends! I am so glad to be able to get in on the fun! I hope everyone is having a great summer! If you don't feel like drafting your own skirt, the Becky Skirt Pattern from our shop would be a great base for this appliqué. Want to pin this post for later? Save this image on Pinterest.
