Cathie’s Square in a Square

steppingstone_finishedI’ve been remiss in posting some of the projects I’ve worked on in the past 3 months.

This is a quilt done by Cathie, one of my favorite customers.  She is a woman after my heart and worries way too much about whether her points match…!

I love quilting her Cathie-Square-in-Square8projects because they lay flat, are square and such a work of art.

I love the pattern on this one; it’s matches the colors perfectly, too!  You can’t even see the quilting, though, which is kinda cool….

New Training Video!

I got a new training video, PajamaQuilter Rethreaded, about freehand machine quilting techniques, from Dawn Ramirez, the Pajama Quilter, in the mail a couple of days ago.  You’d think I would have ripped it open, huh?  Nope, it’s still sitting on the love seat, waiting for me to have some free time!

I found out Dawn was having a sale from a blog post by Mary Johnson at MaryQuilts.com and decided to splurge a little on it, as I’ve seen some really nice quilting on some charity quilts that she’s done, and she swears by this DVD.

I’m taking the dogs to the groomer, I’ve got a sew day tomorrow, and I need to see about getting some shoes repaired and return a pair.  I’m thinking I won’t be viewing the DVD tomorrow, either!

If you haven’t discovered MaryQuilts.com, please visit her site.  Not only does she offer free scrap patterns, she runs another site called Heart Strings Quilt Project which makes string quilts for charitable organizations.
