Back in the fall of 2020 I saw the Birch Bella Lawn line come out and the second I saw it, I had to buy it! It is by Birch Fabrics and is organic lawn which is the softest fabric ever. Bella Lawn is silky and the drape is gorgeous and comes at 56" wide instead of the regular 42-44" wide quilting cotton. The main differ
At some point in my adult years I came to understand the truth of the statement "The obstacles in my path ARE my path." Periodically throughout my life I've been faced with obstacles and challenges that seemed to be diverting me from the path I wanted to follow. As I faced these challenges and found my way through the obstacles, they changed the me who I am... and became an integral part of my journey. This lesson was on my mind when I created the grey-blue version of this quilt, and that quilt serves as a constant reminder to me that obstacles and challenges are to be welcomed -- they bring with them personal growth opportunities and new perspectives for me. I'm sure that reading this you will be recalling your own challenges and how they have shaped who you have become. What a gift it is to arrive at that understanding! I was so pleased with that quilt that I was inspired to see how it would translate in a different colour combination. I was delighted with the result! The quilt finishes at 56" x 72".

#TwirlingAtTheDiscoQuilt My 'Twirling at the Disco' quilt was an idea I had to use up some of my 2.5" scrap fabric squares. Twirling at the Disco Quilt - Pattern by Anorina Morris I am very pleased to be sharing the details on how to make these lovely scrappy blocks.As I mentioned in my previous post, this will be my leader and ender project, so I haven't fully made the quilt just yet. Wondering what a leader and ender project is? It's the sewing you do when sewing another project - rather than cut the thread when you get up to go and press or trim etc, you have a tub with your 2.5" squares handy beside your machine. Pair up two squares with right sides together and sew down one side, enabling you to cut the thread of whatever you're working on and leaving this 2.5" pair attached to the thread. Make sense? Lately, when I turn on my machine, I have a pair of 2.5" squares sitting on the bed from my previous sewing session. These 2.5" pairs build up rather quickly and you'll have enough sewn together to start making blocks before you know it. Okay, let's do this. I cannot wait to see your Twirling at the Disco quilts come to life. To make one block, you will need: (40) 2.5" assorted (scrappy) squares (2) 4.5" squares in white solid (2) 4.5" x 8.5" rectangles in white solid Start by making two 16-patch blocks (4x4) with your assorted 2.5" scrap squares. Use the remaining 2.5" squares to make two more 4-patch blocks. Press these blocks - ideally pressing the seams open would be best as the blocks may be rotated or flipped when it comes to assembling them, but I just tend to press to one side and deal with the seams as I come to them. Now take your 4-patch blocks and sew a 4.5" white square to the bottom of the block. Press. Next, position your block with the scrappy 4-patch oriented up, and sew the white rectangular 4.5" x 8.5" piece to the right side of the block. Press. Now lay out the pieces oriented just like this image (below), with the two 16-patch blocks diagonally across from each other and the pieced 4-patch blocks oriented to the centre. Sew these all together. Press it and there you have your first block all completed, finishing up at 16.5". Easy, peasy, right? 4 x Twirling blocks will make up a little baby size 32" quilt 16 x Twirling blocks with make a nice lap size 64" quilt 36 x Twirling blocks with make a great bed size 96" quilt Please, please, please share your #TwirlingAtTheDiscoQuilt with me as I would love to see your creations. Feel free to use the hashtags on social and share the scrappy rainbow inspiration with your sewing buddies.

I just love it when this quickly turns into this This little rag quilt was fast, very fast ~ I have never made one before and it is so cute!You can't go wrong with the fabric. This is made from 2 Moda Bliss Charm Packs and 72 5 inch squares of Moda Natural (for the backing) that I already had and 72 4 inch warm and natural batting squares (all cut from scraps) I used this great tutorial found here at Creations By Kara. So easy to put together! And the raw edges are such a nice change. Still lovin' my little labels from Sweetwater. I originally had them printed with 2010 along the side, so now that it is 2011, I just cut that part right off. Back to reality tomorrow, kiddos back in school, husband back to work. Lots of cleaning and organizing and laundry around here today. Getting ready for the new week. I am really glad to get back to a routine.

Most quilters find the binding step to be the most time-consuming part of making a quilt but it doesn't have to be if you use your sewing machine. This method is a popular way to finish a quilt that both saves time (compared to hand sewing) and completes the quilt by giving it a nicely finished border edge. We personally sew all of our binding using a sewing machine as it's quick and easy and to be honest, we really don't like hand sewing all that much. This tutorial goes over the basics of quilt binding plus it illustrates the
