I mentioned last week that I was working on a new block design. This is that block. I am both sad and pleased to announce that I will probably never make another one. I like the way it turned out – it definitely looks best if you stand back and squint your eyes – but it was TOO much work to make. (I guess I’m an impatient quilter.) And I could never quite get the measurements right (hence don’t look to close.) I made myself finish it (despite my frustrations) thinking I could make it into a pillow or mini quilt. Then as I was taking the picture, I realized it might make a great medallion quilt center – then I could keep building the quilt with the fabric I pulled. I’m liking that I idea. But it’s heading to the WIP (Works in Progress) pile for now. Maybe it will live on my design wall for a time… So there’s that. Speaking of WIP’s this is my first WIP I pulled out to work on (in keeping with my goal to finish 4 before I start something new. This is the Scrappy Trip Around the World quilt I started two […]

Hmmmm…I have been trying to sort my scrap pile but I’ve discovered it’s just too much fun to play with scrap clay. This is a different version of the scrappy spiral beads and instead have turned them into scrappy spiral squares.  These are pretty funky. Create the spiral log as you would if you were…

I have been quilting since 2008 and have always been afraid of making scrappy quilts. For me, they are to busy, too many fighting patterns, just too much chaos.

I have been told many times over my life that I can be “too much”. As I was working on this #PrairieRoseQuilt, I chose to continually fight against my fear that it was going to be “too much”! Would subtle navy binding look gorgeous on this quilt? YES! But on a scrappy, smorgasbord of colour and print quilt, why not go all out and finish it with scrappy binding too?! So in the wise words of Elyse Myers… if this is TOO MUCH, go find less! 😜
