Quilt Market Finishes and Fat Quarter Shop Winner

It is that time of year again.

QUILT MARKET!!

I personally have never had the chance to make it there,

but this year a few of my projects will be there for you to view.

And for those of you (like myself)

that will not be in Houston,

Here is a little preview.

I created this computer satchel with several different Therm-o-Web products.

I really enjoy finding fun new ways to play with the iCraft® DECO FOIL™

Gold is really a favorite of mine.

Next, is my Patriotic America quilt.

I had a thought of how to create this when I first started quilting,

but I wasn't really great at my new hobby and

I had no clue how to execute my idea.

I did a mix of hand and machine quilting on this.

I used my favorite!

Aurifil 12 wt. in Red for the hand stitching around all the squares.

I wished that I would have gotten a close-up before it headed on

it's merry little voyage.

You can see all the Therm-o-Web products I used and some more photos - HERE.

If you are in Houston, check out Booth # 2033.

I would love to see pictures.

And for the winner of the Fat Quarter Gift Certificate is Tonnia!

Congrats to her.

A Brilliant Cut Blog Hop & Giveaway

Welcome to the Fat Quarter Shop Brilliant Cut Blog Hop!

What is A Brilliant Cut?

Well....,

It is this beauty.

http://www.fatquartershop.com/a-brilliant-cut-mini-quilt-kit

As some would say, a girl's best friend.

There example was done in beautiful

Moda's Sew Solids blue.

So rich and gorgeous.

I chose a slightly different color scheme.

I wasn't quite sure what I had planned for

this mini until I put pieced together

the block.

It was a cinch.

The Creative Grids 9 1/2" Perfect Rectangle Ruler

http://www.fatquartershop.com/catalog/product/view/id/54098/s/creative-grids-9-1-2-perfect-rectangle-ruler/

Made piecing the diamond perfection.

I can see using this tool in many other projects

After piecing the diamond,

I fondly recalled a lullaby that

I would sing my babies.

I am sure most of

you can figure out the song.

A Mocking Bird

A Looking Glass

and of course the Billy Goat

or as my husband says "The Old Goat".

It is my Hush Little Baby quilt

with a Brilliant Cut Diamond Ring block

from the Fat Quarter Shop.

The shine for the berry, diamond, mirror and glasses was added by using

iCraft® DECO FOIL™ which you can find here.

EQ Seasons: Row-A-Long The Big Reveal and Giveaways

Today is the big reveal day!

Have been around and check out all the beautiful

rows that are available for free for a short time?

Although summer is my favorite season, for purely selfish reasons (Time Off),

while creating this,

a little saying kept running through my head

Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall

I can't decide which one I love best of all.

So, I decided to make each.

It is my seasons quilt.

It is 12 rows, 9 of which are part of the Row-A-Long.

I threw some different little filler rows in.

(Yes, I am a Rebel.)

It is a over sized twin quilt.

You can definitely see that pretty little pop of

lime DecoFoil on the Flip Flops.

It really picks up the light.

I used the following rows in my quilt.

A few of them, I had to change up just a little.

I can't leave well enough alone.

It give it just a little more touch of me - "Crazy".

In order,

SPRING

Kissed Quilts

Country Junk'tion

A filler row

SUMMER

Sew Incredibly Crazy - that's me

FALL
