A new quilt project will begin in April, and I’ve been searching the stash for the perfect fabric. There are so many choices, I don’t know what to pick. I considered and eliminated the Fig Tree polished cottons because I … Continue reading →

I’ve worked on the Creative Play piece in fits and starts. I’d stop because I didn’t know what to do next, and an idea would come to me. This style of quilt and the process of putting it together were … Continue reading →

Posted on March 10, 2019 by quiltpaintcreate

The dry spell continues. I finished two more QAL blocks. I could have finished block 7 last night, but decided I didn’t like it. Today I’ll tear out the corner HSTs and replace them with plain squares. I already switched … Continue reading →

Sunday Stash March 3, 2019

Posted on March 3, 2019 by quiltpaintcreate

This year sets the record for no fabric in or out. I picked up a few quilting books at the library sale this weekend. The book that features camouflage fabric has some cute bag patterns, though I doubt I’ll use … Continue reading →

March 2019 Short List

Posted on March 1, 2019 by quiltpaintcreate

Hard to believe it’s time for another Short List. Every month seems to go faster than the last. I worked on three of the February projects, but didn’t finish anything. That’s OK because I didn’t expect to finish anything. Moving … Continue reading →
