Mystery Star Sampler Quilt: Episode 101 ***Free Quilt tutorial and Free Pattern*** (youtube.com)
I had posted some blocks awhile back and now I'll share these newer blocks. I think I'm caught up with the project, so far. This first one looks out of place with the dark background, BUT .... it is the center of a feathered star block which we will work on end of May.
I'm joining these lovely linky parties this week. Be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.

This is a design from GEQuiltDesigns.com. It was a quilt-along last year. It was so quick and easy, I vowed to make many......... one of these days. I made this 60 x 80 quilt and a smaller child quilt from a half yard bundle. I quilted it with Glide thread. The quilting is hard to see on all the print fabrics. The smaller quilt was finished and donated last year. The backing is a floral print.

Have yourself a happy and productive week. Thanks so much for stopping by.
I have been puttering this week to use up the remainder of a strippy panel fabric of dinosaurs. I had to make it much bigger, so did alot of colorful piecing for the sections between the panels. It was only 36 inch wide, so added some side borders too. It is now 48 x 58. It won't get pin basted for quilting until next month.
I am now trying to finish up odds and ends and trim and store lots of scrappy leftovers from several projects. May will be a quilting marathon month for me.

So I got carried away with this block. The monthly 3yd quilt pattern for this month is "Lima". You will find it over at 2024 3YD Quilt Series Sew Along - Material Girlfriends.
The RSC color for April is yellow. So, multi-task it , I made (24 )- 12 inch blocks cut from the yellow scrap bin. I will add a couple borders to bring it to a twin size for the foster child mission at church. There should be enough yellow here to bring some sunshine to a child.

This quilt is the result of February's 3 -yard quilt design at
2024 3YD Quilt Series Sew Along - Material Girlfriends
I selected fabrics from a collection of an Angela Walters quilt along from days/year? past. There was enough to make it a twin size, so that was my goal. I made 35 blocks. There was a limited amount left of the rose/white design print, so I put it all in the border with a bit saved aside for center squares of the blocks. The green background fabric is a celery green and not as dark as it looks in the photo. It finished at 66 x 84 and has already been donated to the local foster child mission at our church.
I used a light gray spiral wide backing and 80/20 batting. I quilted it with Glide threads of course; navy thread cross stitching in the chain portions and a great blending thread in all the rest, called Lemon Ice. I used the "Every Leaf " templates by Amanda Murphy to make the flower design in the blocks. It really went quickly. I tried using the every leaf templates to make a horizontal chain design in the flower border (without marking). That didnt go as well, but the child recipient won't know its not perfect.

I stuck with this project until it was finished...a purpose and a deadline always works wonders. This quilt was pieced with assorted panel parts and more from stash. It was intended to be a child's throw/play quilt, but I thought it made sense to use up the panels, and so it turned into a twin bed size - 68 x 85 . Now I just need to piece together some leftovers to make pillowcases.

More blocks ready for London Calling. Cutting one each of different fabrics and sizes is not my strong suit. These little blocks are definitely a challenge and either I'm mixed up (which is always possible) or there is error in naming fabric numbers in the instructions. Thank goodness for color images. Dont look too closely at my block #9, the wheels on the bus that go round and round -- mine are more like Fred Flinstones.
My Block 7 & 8 both required alot of unstitching and re-doing. It was not my best day.
Block # 9 gives you a bit of a choppy ride on the bus. (no refunds). I am quite happy with the clock.

Is this a catchy name for a bed quilt made of Ohio Stars in Autumn colors? I started piecing this in April of 2022. Of course, it got set aside several times. Then you reach a point where it's time to get it done and move on.
I quilted it on my Janome Versa Sit Down. It was quite a job pushing the 90 x 98 quilt about while free motion quilting. I used assorted colors of Glide thread with 80/20 batting. I finished quilting it in February and it took several evening sessions to hand stitch the binding down. My hand joints feel it too. The backing is a tan speckled extra wide print from Kansas Troubles.
I am delighted to have this huge UFO finished. I am joining these linky parties this week. Be sure to visit them to see what other creative quilters are sharing.

Have a great week and thanks for stopping by.
I've been quilting up some recently made flimsies. The first is Alpha which is a 3 yard quilt pattern offered by MaterialGirlfriends.com. My version finished at 47 x 55. I quilted it with Glide thread. You can see the bottom corner reveals the backing which is a red/black plaid fleece.
My other finish is another 3-yard quilt pattern; this one offered by sewcanshe.com. The pattern is called Stars and Ladders. My version finished at 45 x 57.
