Hi! Ann Lauer here for a Technique Tuesday post using my new Cat-I-Tude fabric collection. I love to make bargello quilts. They have so much movement in the design, and on top of that, they're fun to piece. Today I'm going to show you the technique I use to assemble this type of quilt. It make assembly easier and more accurate. "Dinner in Style" bargello placemat pattern When I make bargello quilts, I like to use Creative Grid Flannel in my quilt sandwich. This 2" cotton grid fabric has “surface tension” built in to keep your pre-cut fabric pieces in place when doing your quilt layouts. In our case, we'll be layering batting over it, and it will hold the batting in place. The grid lines help to ensure that the strips are laid straight and that the stitch lines are straight as well. Here's how I do it, using my Dinner in Style placemat set pattern as an example: Step 1: Choose your backing fabric. I chose Aristocats on black. This is a nice backing fabric because the placemats can even be turned over with this fun fabric on the back. Step 2: Position the backing fabric right side down, Creative Grid Flannel wrong side up and the batting on top. I prefer to use a thin batting such as Hobbs Thermore, which is bonded on both sides so it's easy to sew on. I like the combined weight of flannel and the thin Hobbs Thermore batting in table top projects. Note: The lines on the flannel are dark and you don’t want them to show through the lightest fabric that you are using. Therefore, I layer it wrong side up and place it under the batting. You can see the lines through the batting well enough to keep the segments straight as you sew. There are other grid products available and if you use one that isn’t printed too darkly, you may want to layer it on top of the batting. Notice how you can see the lines showing through batting when you layer the batting piece on top of the Creative Grid Flannel. Step 3: Following your quilt pattern, cut your fabric strips and sew into a tube. Press all your seams in one direction. Step 4: Use the grid to lay the first segment along a left hand vertical line and the top of the segment along a top horizontal line. Follow the instructions and as you stitch each segment, open it up and check to be sure that the cut edge is staying parallel to a vertical grid line and that the seams within the segments are staying parallel with the horizontal grid lines. Directions are included in my pattern on how to correct any areas that begin to bow. By using this technique, all of the stitching will be straight and the bargello will be stabilized which will make it easy to fuse the cats onto the placemats. Step 5: Here's a view of the first five segments laid on the backing/grid/batting sandwich. These strips are tubes that have been opened on the designated seam so they lay flat. Step 6: When all the strips have been stitched in place, you will have made one large quilt-as-you-go section that you will cut into fourths to yield four placemats. Each placemat will be somewhat different, but they all go together beautifully.

Just because you know how to sew and are a brilliant, artistic, and savvy clothes-maker does not mean you have a knack for numbers. Sometimes, numbers can be a sewist’s worst enemy. This is why we have decided to create some helpful yardage charts for our readers. These Printable Yardage Charts help you determine how much fabric to use and how to seamlessly convert yard to inches as well as calculate your fabric usage in meters, as well. You will never be stumped again by a pattern’s need for fabric if you pin, save, or print these helpful sewing infographics and printables. Sign Up For More Free Patterns

I'm taking Katie's advice and sewing something, anything, to get back in the mood. In March I bought a kit on impulse. I wasn't feeling very creative but I wanted to get back to my sewing machine. I figured a kit might do the trick. This one was small to guarantee a quick finish and a sense of accomplishment. We live in a university town. My husband teaches at Iowa State University and by this fall I will have two kids attending as students. Maybe it's time to add a little cardinal and gold to my home decor. Just a little though. Iowa State has two resident swans, Lancelot and Elaine, on Lake LaVerne on campus. Elizabeth Hartman's pattern Swan Island is a perfect fit! When Rachel at Quilting Connection chose the red and gold accents for a store sample, it struck me as just the right touch of ISU tradition and colors. The kit includes only the fabric for the swans and you add your choice of background. Brown fits my living room furniture, and it sure makes the swans pop. They kept me busy for a day or two, then sat on the design wall waiting for me to quilt them and turn them into pillows. So, back to the idea of a quick finish. Piecing the swans kept me busy for a couple of days, but the quick finish eluded me because of that creative void. I didn't want an allover pattern like the one used on the pattern cover because there is too much contrast between my swans and my background. The quilting would be either too showy on the swans or too showy on the background. I knew what I didn't want but had no clue what to quilt instead. My swans hung on the wall for a couple of months. A couple of days ago I decided to at least prepare the quilt sandwiches (I was going to say baste but that sounds like I am roasting these swans!) By the time I finished stitching in the ditch around and in the swan block, I had a plan for the background too. I used my Westalee rulers to start stitching concentric circles centered on the front of the swan. Since I don't have any that will let me stitch out anything larger than about 12" in diameter, I switched to my walking foot with a guide arm for the larger circles, switching to a very long stitch length when I had to stitch across the swan. This let me keep track of the curve on successive rounds until I got past the swan. I needed each of those curves as a guide to follow on the next round, all the way out to the edge, but the long stitches across the swan were easy to pick out afterwards. I wrote a post all about this method several years ago. I like how it turned out. Last light I prepared a zippered pillow back, this morning I sewed the front to the back, and tomorrow I'll bring home some coordinating fabric for binding. I bought brown for the binding yesterday when I popped into the shop for brown thread, but now I am leaning towards binding in fabric that matches the feather tips. This is almost a finish, and I think my creativity is stirring. Next up: quilting the butterfly quilt. I has a longarm quilter baste it for me and it is ready for me to get started. I'm going to try starting with stitching in the ditch again and hope ideas for the rest come to me while I stitch.

I'm so excited to share that the NEW Upscale Plaid quilt pattern is now available! Believe it or not, this design was born out of the quest to create the perfect holiday coaster. Yep, you read that right, haha. Last year, Elizabeth (our fearless Creative Project Manager) and I were brainstorming ideas for a plaid coaster and we landed on an idea that we just HAD to turn into a full size quilt. Over the last few months, we've been tweaking, fine tuning and perfecting the scale and pattern until we created what you see today. Friends, I present to you the newest Lo & Behold pattern, Upscale Plaid! There are so many things to talk about with this quilt. It's difficult to know where to start! How about the sizes, shall we?

Hey Everyone, Here is the tutorial for the tree block from Brooke (her's is putting together either the table runner or the bedrunner). Here is Sally's Bedrunner which she has finished (over achiever). Here is my tutorial since I had to be difficult and make the lap size :) Lap Size Tree Tutorial (pdf) Cut your biggest pieces first and then use the strips to cut the next pieces. This is written as if you are using 3 green fabrics but you can use whatever you like as long as you can get all of the pieces cut. Be sure to keep your left overs you will need them for the inner tree part of the pattern that is later in this tutorial. Mark your pieces with the corresponding letter which is noted after the measurements in the cutting directions and diagrammed on the block below Cutting For Tree Block: (10”x 20”) From 2 green fabrics cut one 7” strip Subcut: 2 – 7” squares (one from each) if you don’t mind your points on each block of your tree being the same you could economize by just cutting one of these (A) 2 – 6 ½ squares (one from each)(B) From remaining green fabric cut one 6” strip Subcut: 2 – 6” squares (from the new fabric and one from one of the other two 7” strips you already have) if you don’t mind your points on each block of your tree being the same you could economize by just cutting one of these (C) 2 – 5 ½” by 3 ½” rectangles (again from 2 different fabrics)(D) 2 – 5” squares (from 2 fabrics) if you don’t mind your points on each block of your tree being the same you could economize by just cutting one of these(E) 2 – 4 ½” x 2 ½” rectangles (from 2 fabrics) (F) 2 - 4” squares (from 2 fabrics) if you don’t mind your points on each block of your tree being the same you could economize by just cutting one of these (G) 2 – 3 ½” x 1 ½” rectangles (from 2 fabrics) (H) 2 – 3” squares (from 2 fabrics) if you don’t mind your points on each block of your tree being the same you could economize by just cutting one of these (I) From Background Fabric: Cut one 7” strip Subcut: 2 – 7” squares (or one see above) (A) 2 – 6” squares (or one as above)(C) 2 – 5 ½” x 2 ½” rectangles (J) 2 – 5” squares (or one as above) (E) 2 – 4 ½” squares (K) 2 – 4” squares (or one as above)(G) 2 – 6 ½” x 3 ½” rectangles (L) 2 - 8 ½” x 2 ½” rectangles (M) 2 – 3” squares (or one as above) (I) Instructions: From your 7”, 6”, 5”, 4”, 3” squares make half square triangles as we have been doing in the last two blocks. Marking diagonally on the background squares and sewing down each side of the line, cutting apart on the line. Square to 6 ½”, 5 ½”, 4 ½”, 3 ½”, and 2 ½”. Piece the rectangles in as you see above on the block diagram. You will need two blocks just like you see them. The easiest way to do this is lay the pieces all out so you can see the picture then piece them in rows. This block will come out 10.5” x 20.5” unfinished. Inner Tree Block You will need to piece one more block from your green fabrics. You can piece this any way you like as long as it comes out 10.5” by 20.5” unfinished. Here are two different ways you can make it. These are basically to show you that you can do this any way you like. It looks good any way. And here is a graphic of how the whole quilt goes together again. As you can see the bottom row has the inner tree. And I show a version with either piecings of the inner block. it looks fine both ways so, go easy I say :) We will have another post next week about finishing with the border.
