Anvil Quilt Block

I joined a Quilt Guild and currently they have a block of the month. The  Anvil  Quilt Block was chosen, the guild shared the 12” pattern- but I found a 6” pattern that I prefer more. The 6” pattern  ould easily fit with my 365 challenge quilt. I figured it’s my quilt, I can make it the way I want. If you are interested in the pattern - it can be found “ here ”.  Links: Block Library 6” pattern

Sock Challenge

  Earth Day is on Friday, April 21st! I thought a fun activity for this year is to find a way to recycle or up-cycle socks. Everyone has that draw of unmatched or single socks. I think this year after sorting through that sock drawer we should create something new with them. Pinterest has tons of ideas. Complete interest survey " here ".

Crumb Blocks

Even Smaller Pieces Every time I create with small pieces I wonder how I can work so small and then I go even smaller. I have a number of techniques that I have created for working with small pieces and then when I go smaller I find that I need to adapt and create even yet another technique. For these small pieces I initially began by using my mosaic technique and then discovered that the pieces were way too small for that. I turned the sewing machine off, made a cup of coffee and sat and thought.  I have a strict rule when creating. I won't create a technique that requires purchasing any special materials for construction. No special glues, no bondaweb and also no chiffon or netting (unless I already have some in my stash). I always have a supply of cheap white plastic school glue and that can sometimes be used but not if the end product is going to be washed. The technique has to be possible with only a sewing machine, a domestic with a straight stitch, fabric scraps and thread....
