Tula Pink Puff Quilt. The top is made with 10โ€ squares, the hidden muslin squares are 9โ€. The backing is gray minky and I ended up hand tying the intersections with embroidery floss. #puffquilt #quilting #tulapinkfabric #quiltsky

This quilt top went together super nicely. The fabric does all the heavy lifting. The pattern is Gentlemenโ€™s Agreement by new Leaf Stitches. #modernquilting #quiltsky #quilting

The quilt went together beautifully. I think it is very pretty.

The size is stupidly impractical. 81.5x81.5 in. Too small for a double size mattress. If I make it larger, I have to send it out to be long-armed.

Lesson learned: read sizes before buying. #modernquilting #quiltsky #quilting

A pair of โ€œThree Yard Quiltsโ€* that will start filling out the donation pile. The meerkat quilt was enlarged by a column since I had additional fabric. #quiltsky #threeyardquilts

I took #mxdomesticโ€™s fabric weaving class last weekend and was able to turn it into an awesome pillow. Great class. Highly recommend. #modernquilting #quiltsky

Round three is complete. Next stage is a little more complicated but Iโ€™m still enjoying the quilt #quiltsky#tulapinknova #quilting #epp

Finished quilt. Lightly quilted with an emerald green minky back. The quilted can be folded to match various decors. Aka stealth mode. #modernquilting #quiltsky #quilting

Itโ€™s based off of Missouri Star Quilt Companyโ€™s pattern โ€œConfettiโ€. Iโ€™ve made it larger to fit the recipient.

This weekโ€™s update on a thousand+ of tiny triangles quilt. Still have another third to sew together before I do the final arrangement. I know already that the green to white transition is to harsh. #quiltsky #quilting #modernquilting

My guess is the background strip is added to the one side of the triangle before they are added to the 4 patch. It might have been put together by FPP but Y seams are more likely.

If I knew then, what I know now; I would have made the triangles bigger. This is approx 1/3 of the pieces. Using the MSQC pattern โ€œConfettiโ€ as the base. #quilting #modernquilting #quiltsky

Finished this out of this world quilt. ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ
Fabric is primarily Dear Stella and Elizabeth Hartmann with a grey background from Pippa Shaw.
Pattern is โ€œWishโ€ by Cluck Cluck Sew.
It was machined quilted by the Quilting Page with no batting and with Shannon cuddle.

I was organizing my scraps and realized that I had enough gray 2.5 inch strips to make this easy throw. #quiltsky #scrapquilting #quilting #modernquilting

I upgraded my quilting storage recently and I have been going thru ALL of my fabric and scraps and organizing them. I rediscovered these extra Irish chain blocks from a quilt made a year ago. I decided today was the day to make a baby/lap quilt out of them. #quilting #bonusquilt #pippashaw

I first saw Notre Dame 30 years ago and I had a bunch of art history knowledge fresh in my head. I knew what paintings to look for and felt the historical gravitas. Today, it felt bland and too clean. I miss the sooty ceilings of centuries of candles.

Finished the bear series. Four bears, four seasons. I used Elizabeth Hartman for the first three. The Spring panda bear was designed by Burlap and Blossom Patterns. (With a little extra borders to make it the same size as the others. #quilting #quiltsky
