Volcanic Island – Construction Reconstruction
I feel like November is going to be a month of finishes. And here is one of my favorite finishes: Volcanic Island – Construction Reconstruction. I began this quilt in July of 2008, so it has taken me more than four years to get it done, but here it is and I love it! I am …
November ufo
What quilt is this that laid to rest under my sewing table for nearly a year? Can you see it peeking out of the random materials I laid on top of it? Yes, we are finally back to the denim cathedral windows quilt. I have great faith that I will finish it in November. Now, …

technical difficulties, September ufo
So, this is the second time I am publishing this due to the word press glitch. Hopefully, that is my third and final technical difficulty.

slow progress but progress none the less
I almost have the center section done. I love the way it turned out, way better than it was. The tension is considerable as to whether I will finish it by the end of this month. One more weekend to try!
whew!
I started piecing these blocks back together and I love them! I even used a new technique that I had never tried before that created those think lines of orange. That orange is actually the back fabric. I sewed the blocks together back side together. Then I had the seam allowances on the front. I …
Paul’s quilt wrapup
We had a great weekend camping but I’m running a little late. Here is the wrap up of Paul’s quilt. Now, I don’t generally like working with a client, even when he is my own son. However, he pretty much had two stipulations: red and black. Many of the t-shirt panels are his own clothes. …
Yes, I did
Yes, I cut into a finished technically finished quilt- bound and everything. Septemeber’s ufo is the Hawaiian quilt. I cut out all of the squares out. I plan to reassemble them closer together. I didn’t like how far apart they were. I have a lot of scraps to add as well. I’m excited about it now, but it …
September ufo
This month’s ufo is number 11. This quilt is technically done but yet I still don’t like it. I have been thinking about cutting it up and assembling it again because there are a lot of elements I love about it.
flames
This is what did with the painted fabric. I cut it really small and sewed it down. I love the way it turned out. I still have to finish the rest of the houses.
