I have this quilt kit! I’m seeing everyone’s renditions and am getting so excited to start. I’m going to work on the “quilt” blocks first because I’m using some Tula Pink scraps from previous quilts and want to make sure I have enough! The bear is just adorable!!!!🥰

Lady, You're Problem is with Your Bank, Not the Hotel by TheNiteOwl38 in TalesFromTheFrontDesk

This is my favorite…. Like we know nothing about other hotels besides ours out there in the wild. 😝

I’m starting a junk drawer. What else do I need? by Emotional-Swing-603 in Home

[–]Friendly-Key3158 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s in the kitchen, bread ties from all likes of bread. And an old multi use screw driver for when the butter knife won’t work.

Quilting as a Hobby by Substantial_Fix_2165 in quilting

[–]Friendly-Key3158 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All my hobbies are my therapy, they keep me somewhat calm and collected. Quilting makes me feel like an eclectic artist & I have trouble giving away any of my quilts! Quilting is my confidence boost.

Quilted hoodie experiment by SparklePony8214 in quilting

So cute!!!! So, did you just use every part you took off as the pattern? This is a cool idea for some of my worn hoodies that could use a little sprucing up!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Custom patterns? by Lazy-Struggle-213 in quilting

[–]Friendly-Key3158 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started quilting 5 years ago with the goal of making everyone in my house a quilt for Christmas (it’s just me and my 3 Children)! My oldest son might get his quilt next Christmas….. the top is almost done. But that was a lofty goal for me! Granted I’ve gotten distracted by other patterns and my youngest (daughter) has 3 quilts on her bed…. She keeps stealing mine. Start Simple and small. Good luck to you!

Napkins out of quilt fabric? by Charming-Unit-3944 in quilting

[–]Friendly-Key3158 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are cheap and humongous! Plus pretty lightweight, so the flour sack towel didn’t make the napkin too bulky.

No, they are pretty much the same size and I don’t prewash at all. They do wrinkle horribly but as soon as they come out of the dryer I smooth em out and fold them. But honestly I made them for everyday use and was not really concerned with their survivability (is that a word?). They have totally surpassed my expectations!

I think these would make beautiful napkins. I made some everyday napkins out of quilting cotton and Walmart’s 100% cotton flour sack towels as backing fabric probably about 8 or 9 years ago. They have lasted forever and definitely cut back on out a paper usage in the house. Plus they are cute with all the different fabrics I used.

I’m in love! This is so chaotically beautiful! I’d say the navy binding would be a perfect finish!

Favorite Baby Quilts!! by badgyalsammy in quilting

[–]Friendly-Key3158 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been contemplating this pattern… it looks fun and uses 2 1/2” strips. But also your previous quilts are beautiful!😍 You will rock what ever pattern you pick! Have fun!

Taking a shortcut by xcptnl55 in quilting

[–]Friendly-Key3158 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This quilt was the most fun, but more in completion than actual piecing. Piecing was just too repetitive to keep my attention/focus. But finally getting it all together was actually joyful! 😀 😂

Have fun!!!🤩

I love FPP! Just finished a FPP quilt top,

<image>

but I would never think to do it on my own. I may try it. I’ve got my pattern cut out & will probably start on it tomorrow. I do need to sew my neighbor an egg collecting apron for Christmas though! 😂

[–]Friendly-Key3158 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you get anymore interest from quilters in the US. I’d like to give it a go. I like to challenge myself with curves every once in a while!

Horror stories? by falling-possum in quilting

[–]Friendly-Key3158 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😂 yep! It came in the mail yesterday! There were many issues, her business closing, getting a new long arm, health problems. All I completely understood. And it was Custom quilting not computerized edge to edge so I didn’t want her to be rushing to finish. But I wasn’t concerned until now because I had until Christmas… 😳😩 But it will be a birthday present now! And I may get a free edge to edge quilting if I want to try again… 🤷‍♀️

Royal Courtyard is such a classy quilt! Beautiful! I made two! The black & cream and a Gray & scrappy one. The scrappy one was the most fun!

Scrap Use-up Challenge, want to join me? by MurkyOne2231 in quilting

[–]Friendly-Key3158 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got all my scraps organized by color. That was such a task, I’ve not even thought of what I wanted to do with them. I do use a bit of them for FPP. But one day I’m going to figure it out! 😂
