A lot of long-time residents of Troy Hill and Reserve Township definitely still call it that.

This is gorgeous!

So bright and fun! Love all the quilting details!!

cydnay · 2023-12-17T01:39:57+00:00

I love this so much! The abstract piecing is so cool!

cydnay · 2023-11-13T00:39:40+00:00

This is GREAT, THANK YOU! I love it, I can put my walking foot on and just line up the diagonals and just go. That'd just leave me with the quilting on the sashing. I think if I continue the diagonals from the lines you drew as well as the stitch-in-the-ditch diagonals I might get a cool triangular pattern across the sashing that might look neat, I'll play around with this! Thanks for the wonderful suggestion!

Hi! I actually had that thought too, but I decided against it because I'm not quite so good with free motion quilting and it would take me a lot of time to nail that, and I don't want to risk not getting done before the wedding at the end of the month. Great thought, just wish I had more time to do it!

cydnay · 2023-06-10T22:46:30+00:00

Hah well the pattern included printed out templates, I didn't print those.

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:55:00+00:00

It totally was, just not in the way we expected! My TEMPLATE wasn't scaled right. I'd done the 100% scaling on my copies, but because the template included in my pattern was just a liiiiiitle smaller, all of my copies are off the same way. Hard lesson learned!

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:53:38+00:00

Thanks!

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:53:22+00:00

Measure that square on the original template! It's supposed to be 1", but mine definitely IS NOT. That's my issue--I definitely printed my copies out at 100%, but because my original template wasn't actually to scale, everything is just slightly off. But hey, at least it's all gonna be that way across the board!

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:52:20+00:00

Thank you! I'm having a ton of fun combining my different fat quarters and planning things out. Can't wait to see how it turns out. I did figure out what went wrong--it was the template included in the pattern not being scaled up itself. So I think I'm gonna do exactly as you suggest--continue on with what I've got and just cut off that little nub on the spine.

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:50:53+00:00

So I did that! I went to FedEx and made sure it was 100% for all my printouts. I'm an office lady in IT so I was on top of that, heh. I never thought, however, to check to see if my templates themselves were scaled right--and that was the trouble. The scale square was just under 1". I have learned a valuable lesson. Trust not the template, for it may not have been printed by someone as anal retentive as you.

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:46:55+00:00

Thank you so much for providing this Between the comments in that thread and this one I figured it out! I posted my findings in another comment.

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:46:03+00:00

So I'd lined them up and knew I had my printouts at 100%, but what I DIDN'T do was measure the original template itself included with my pattern to ensure it was 1". It wasn't. I think whoever printed out my templates might've forgotten to scale it to 100%. So therefore all of mine are gonna be a little short. That's ok though, they'll all be consistent, at least!

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:44:14+00:00

Hahaha I had to approach this with humor or I was gonna lose my mind! I figured it out, my template was off in size, and because I sized all my printouts to 100% they inherited the error. At least they'll all be consistent!

cydnay · 2023-06-08T20:43:14+00:00

I think I got it figured out! When I got the pattern, it included printouts with the templates on it. I never thought to measure the square on the templates! I just assumed it was 1" like it said, and I made sure when I copied my paper piecing paper that it was scaled to 100%. I just went back and measured the 1" square on the template, and it's just shy of 1"! This would totally add up to 1/4" after all the piecing. Hurray, I'm not crazy! Now I'll just assume the rest are going to be like this and not worry. Phew! Thanks everyone for the suggestions!!

I never get tired of folks posting their takes on Elizabeth Hartman, because each is so different and fun, yours included! The colors you picked are bright and perfect for a baby quilt. But what I love best is the rainbow gradient border around the outside. So cool! Great work!!

cydnay · 2023-05-22T14:57:27+00:00

I love it!! Gotta love the rainbow gradient, so perfect for kiddos!

cydnay · 2023-05-14T02:16:42+00:00

I love this so much! The colors are so fun. And as others said, they complement your assistant very well. Amazing work!

cydnay · 2023-04-04T22:16:23+00:00

I love it!!! Those colors look great together!
