July's Candle Mat

In keeping up (almost) with the monthly tablescraps runner challenge with Joy at The Joyful Quilter, I rummaged thru my box/s of autumn fabrics and pulled 3 for a quick table mat. I'm not thrilled with the result which should be a lesson that it doesn't pay to hurry quilting creativity.

In any event, here is my fall candle mat. It measures 14 inches across. I used a 60 degree ruler to cut the wedges. I quilted it with Glide gold thread (my fav) and used a single fold binding.

I will gift it to someone and if they don't like the front, they can always use the back side.....

I'm joining the linky party with Joy this weekend. You can see all the lovely challenge tablescraps runners all this weekend at The Joyful Quilter .

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Tree of Life - June blocks

We are nearing the end of piecing this project. One more month to go, then time to assemble, assemble, assemble. I am making it in miniature. What better reason to paper piece than to make a miniature? This fine project is the creation of Denise from For the Love of Geese site.

And so here are my June blocks. They don't look so exciting all alone, do they?

August is just around the corner and will soon bring the reveal. See you soon.

4 Stars Baby Quilt

This is a Judy Martin pattern called Star Cluster. The only link I could find to its instruction was a direct pdf through google, so I thought it best not to provide a direct link here. But you can find it.

This quilt finished at 45 x 45. I designed my own border treatment. I'm really pleased with it. The backing is a fleece which wouldnt move around nicely on my quilting table, so I used the DSM with a walking foot.
