CONVERGING CORNERS QUILT

Remember this quilt?  It resulted in having lots of leftovers that I figured would be perfect for the Converging Corners quilt first seen over at Film in the Fridge a couple years back.



excuse the greyed out picture


These blocks are easy to piece, but do take a bit more time than a typical block



Worth the time I'd say. It's fun to watch the pattern come together when the corners "converge".




I'm wondering what kind of straight line quilting I can treat this to, so will have to search for inspiration.
Thanks for stopping by today.
Enjoy your weekend  : )

LOVE LETTERS

Am I the only one who would buy a jellyroll for the 4 red strips in the middle? Somebody tell me I'm not alone. Somebody tell my husband-- I'm not alone!


Those lovely reds in the middle is what I was after and we had no yardage in the red. I thought it was perfect for the little quilt I've had in my head for a long time.





I pieced the letters VERY carefully improv style.  There was no extra for mistakes.


I did pebble quilting around the letters, and straight lines for the rest.



The binding was made from a leftover red piece and the two other strips that had some red in them. I love the little birds on the edge.





Happy Valentines


Now I need to figure out what to do with the other 34 strips I have leftover         : )

A NEW PROJECT

Noteworthy arrived and it is beautiful.  I picked up a jellyroll and started on a project that's been on the to do list for quite some time.


The background fabric is 'Love Notes' by Echo Park Paper Co. for Andover Fabrics.  It's perfect.



That's it. Just a little teaser.
Happy Sunday.
