Here's a SIMPLE Disappearing 9-Patch You'll Enjoy!
|
Hi Reader, No sooner do I get close to finishing a quilt than another idea grabs my attention. As you know, there are four twin size charm square quilts I'm working on using different Disappearing-9-Patch Layouts. This week's is number three and I'm already working on the fourth. Don't miss my Confetti: A Disappearing 9-Patch Quilt Pattern which is available at 40% off only to subscribers via my emails! Oh, Happy Spring! π»ππΌ I've gathered my floral fabrics for some upcoming spring quilts. Plus I have some other great choices to work with to make a few more quilts I've been thinking about. Particularly a baby quilt for a new member of our family. You can see the fabric I've chosen towards the end of the video above. Or you can check out the Cottage Grove Layer Cake Fabrics at the Fat Quarter Shop. If you're like me, spring also means time in my gardens. I love growing flowers to brighten up our yard, plus herbs and greens for eating. Being outside this time of year feels wonderful after a few cold months. My perennials are popping up and getting me excited to do some more digging. Between our newest bird-sanctuary garden and all the song birds we have visiting, I've been busy online learning all I can. My husband has discovered that Black Oil Sunflower Seeds are a favorite which certainly seems to be true. So yes, I now have 100 seeds to grow some of these large flowers ourselves. If you like to garden inside or out, here are a couple links you might enjoy to find just what you're looking for. Leaves and Soul offers interesting products that are specific to various plants. I'm trying the Herbs & Greens liquid fertilizer. I love adding fresh herbs when I'm cooking and am anxious to see how this work.π₯π₯π₯ I also want to add a small lettuce garden but being in GA that'll only work in spring and fall. My best producers are basil and parsley which grow like crazy! So that'll be for the edibles and maybe a bit of cilantro, too. It's too hard to compete against all the critters that want to each my veggies. So flowers and greens it is. πΊππΈπΏπ± Thanks so much for following along. Have a great rest of your week!

Hi Reader, There are three quilt block techniques that always get quilters excited. First is a rag quilt, most likely because they are very easy and don't require traditional quilting. That makes them a perfect quilting-for-beginners choice. Second is the disappearing 9-patch. The initial block is a simple 9-patch which is then cut into multiple pieces and rearranged into some very interesting designs. Third is the potato chip block. It's definitely been a favorite of mine, too! The allure...
Hi Reader, This has to be the FASTEST method to create an adorable scrappy baby quilt in just minutes! Youβll be amazed how quickly you can turn 100 charm squares into an awesome quilt faster than you ever thought possible! Not enough charm squares on hand? Check out these 100 count charm packs in assorted solids & prints. Luckily my leftover charm pile was overflowing. So much so I should have enough to make four twin size quilts with this pattern! I'm excited to them finished, though that...
Hi Reader, Is anyone else besides me getting lots of quilting done? Are you making any special projects for Valentine's Day? Check out my pretty pink Chenille Heart Pillow article on the website. It's a quick 'show-the-love' finish that you can still squeeze in before the big day! The Valentine's Day pillows I made this month are quite pretty. Two use a chenille trim, but there's an amazing shortcut that I just discovered! The other is a French Rose Rag Quilt Pillow which is rosy and bright!...
