What? Another February Finish?

/ quiltinggail

A friend sent me this! It made me laugh out loud. It reminded me of when we first met when taking a Free Motion Quilting class! A few of the comments that were made (and will remain private for now) had us in stitches. That friend has become a fantastic Free Motion Quilter! So, I’d say it was a good class!!! And we have always encouraged each other to free motion quilt and try something new! This brings smiles to my face!

Yup, another February Finish!

It seems like I’m on a roll here!

I posted this quilt on Wednesday for the Sweet on You blog hop. You can read about it HERE!

I hope to be teaching a class at Essem for this quilt. It’s quick and easy, but I also have some tricks up my sleeve to make it even easier! We haven’t decided on a date yet, but once we do, Essem will be announcing it in their newsletter.

Quilt Stats:

  • Fabrics: Island Batik scraps paired with Island Batik’s solid white.
  • Size: 48″ x 48″
  • Pieced with Aurifil #2600 Dove Grey
  • Quilted with Glide thread “Peacock” using mostly 4″ Cupid ruler (Silly Moon) with the occasional 3″ heart.
  • Hobbs 80/20 on the inside
  • Scrappy binding

A DrEAMI as well

Sandra, from MMM Quilts, hosts a linky party every month for DrEAMI. If you’re not aware, DrEAMI stands from DRop Everything And Make It. So I did – sort-of.

Days Filled with Joy is hosting a “One Gift a Month” challenge. February’s gift is a Heart Shaped Zipper Pouch. See HERE for the tutorial.

It doesn’t use a lot of fabric! I used Island Batik fabric from a Stash Builder bundle. I also used scraps of Hobbs 80/20 batting and Aurifil thread for piecing and top stitching.

These are perfect for earbuds! And, I think they are super cute as well! These were both made in an afternoon – and I was also working on something else at the same time! So EASY PEASY!

I’ve been Featured!

Jennifer, from  Inquiring Quilter, Kelly from My Quilt Infatuation and Andrée from Quilting & Learning – What a combo! featured my puff quilt. You can read about it HERE.

One who sleeps under a quilt is covered by LOVE!

Happy Quilting!

  5. Hi Gail, the quilt is lovely. I love the curator saying…and those are my initials lol! Those mini heart pouches are very cute.
    As always, thanks so much for linking up to Free Motion Mavericks. Leaving on the ship tomorrow. It’s over 30°C in Buenos Aires. 😀

  9. lots of fun and creative sewing happening in your sewing room! I was thinking of the Indian hatchet block as a RSC2023 but settled on other blocks. I do like your staggered setting…maybe RSC2024 for me!
