It's a fun fusible applique design and I really enjoyed making it. I bet if you dig thru your fabric, you can find some green.... leprechaun green fabric. I made my leprechaun with a white beard, but a red/orange beard would be very cute too! I used fabrics from my Marcus Fabrics stash.

I then pressed everything into place.

When I make an applique mug rug, I like to layer the top, batting and batting all together before I do the stitching around the design. I like that when I'm doing the buttonhole stitch around my design, I'm also quilting my mug rug at the same time. You can do additional quilting if you'd like besides outlining the design. I just find it to be a great time saver. Like I said before, I'm really pleased with how my St. Patty's Day gnomes turned out. They will add a festive touch to my kitchen for the month of March.</span></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.quiltdoodledesigns.com/shop/PDF-Patterns/p/Lucky-Gnome-Mug-Rug-PDF-Pattern-for-St-Patricks-Day-x55858496.htm" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-dnFOIltUpiM/YFFH-lfoKWI/AAAAAAAAYJE/-dt4RWv0iocm9dD1HrE4ThqbKhBu6Ik_ACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h480/AA5DDEBF-4B1E-4FA3-A789-79BFA6C9B502.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I hope that you have a fun St. Patrick's Day, even if you're not Irish.

I'm in love with Sweet Bea Bunny. Did you know if I had a girl, I wanted to name her Beatrice. I loved the idea of having a little sweet Bea. But as fate had it, I was blessed with all boys, and I wouldn't have it any other way. That's where the inspiration for the bunny's name came from. </span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span>I usually use Dunroven Towels for my applique, but I decided to</span><span> use something a little different this time. Not everyone has Dunroven Towels on hand to easily purchase, so I used a couple of tea towels that I purchased some time ago from Target. My point being, you can applique my designs on anything that you desire, an apron, a quilt block, on a simple table runner, anything your heart desires! So let me show you how I make this sweet bunny.</span></span></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh51Kkwv-w7jyFFpiO9mTyhhwMtgJgNQtm9kX7y8LgBJXoXGPcR0m-UfdQ6-7BVy4XatLcsCjHxoFA_3EOgKzz5oZwPByFatPoePtqVGdy2HhCRGw6MXQV0CYo5Du6doHYDMSeVe7XfH7U01C9Ix49vg8doZqUrONxsjb52tPBiekxnOHYYHrG0-18xqQ_c/s4032/IMG_3236.HEIC" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh51Kkwv-w7jyFFpiO9mTyhhwMtgJgNQtm9kX7y8LgBJXoXGPcR0m-UfdQ6-7BVy4XatLcsCjHxoFA_3EOgKzz5oZwPByFatPoePtqVGdy2HhCRGw6MXQV0CYo5Du6doHYDMSeVe7XfH7U01C9Ix49vg8doZqUrONxsjb52tPBiekxnOHYYHrG0-18xqQ_c/w300-h400/IMG_3236.HEIC" width="300" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I trace the design onto the paper side of my sheet of flexifuse.

Such a fun design for spring and Easter. This sweet bunny can be on display all spring and summer if you'd like! I've got spring fever really bad and have started my garden seeds in the house. I'm pretty pleased to announce that they are starting to sprout! I had troubles with baby bunnies last year in the garden, they were able to squeeze thru my wire fencing for the garden. I'll have to add a smaller grate wire fence this year to my garden fence to try to deter them. Baby bunnies are so cute, but not so cute when they get in the garden. Those little buggers wiped out my beans, spinach and cabbage last year! Little stinkers! I replanted twice! I have high hopes the garden will do better this year. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">This cute iron on applique pattern can be found in my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/quiltdoodledesigns" target="_blank">Etsy Shop</a> and also on the <a href="http://www.quiltdoodledesigns.com" target="_blank">website</a> as a PDF download.</span></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: courier; font-size: large;">Hope that you have a wonderful day and find some time to do some quilting,</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: courier; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: courier; font-size: large;">Cindy and Josephine</span></div><p></p>Quilt Doodle Designshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17595359656477088279noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5086454657691142891.post-89364401775546880022024-02-29T23:30:00.009-06:002024-02-29T23:30:00.144-06:00March's Blocks!<p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqZyC_EjtfwWQaeWsP3-tV8YMm9su_HBsuLJ_1DeSRjrdDflbkJNcQYUUxIOnepo0lNZmwyqxLsTJwHoI02ZGGGORsJU3hnMEmSUL-XI0KTFvz3XuXiB-k5i3uO11DnDBntlMBQKNpjB7pm3gVesNMq-ViuhZubJywbvSwII2ATTbuiFwiEoh2colzzenQ/s646/BOM%202024%20Logo.jpg" style="clear: left; display: inline !important; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="646" data-original-width="508" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqZyC_EjtfwWQaeWsP3-tV8YMm9su_HBsuLJ_1DeSRjrdDflbkJNcQYUUxIOnepo0lNZmwyqxLsTJwHoI02ZGGGORsJU3hnMEmSUL-XI0KTFvz3XuXiB-k5i3uO11DnDBntlMBQKNpjB7pm3gVesNMq-ViuhZubJywbvSwII2ATTbuiFwiEoh2colzzenQ/s320/BOM%202024%20Logo.jpg" width="252" /></a></p><div><span style="font-size: medium;">Happy March! The temperature has been crazy here. We went from a 60-degree day down to below zero in a 24-hour period! As I write this, we are slowly warming up again giving us hope that spring is right around the corner. I've bought my garden seeds and I plan on getting them started indoors. I'm on the hunt for my grow lights, they are somewhere in the house... hmmmm where did I put them! I have a garden I would like to totally dig up and redo, I've been kicking around what I would like to plant in that space. It's gone from a shade garden to 100% sun with the loss of an oak tree. Along with my garden plans, I am excited about the arrival this month of a new granddaughter! We can't wait to meet her! Such an exciting time... I had all boys so it's so much fun to have granddaughters. I am enjoying spoiling them both! <br /></span><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Now onto this year’s block of the month in case you are just joining us, it’s sorta a mystery and I am encouraging everyone to use fabric from their stash. You will want the same background color for the quilt to tie it all together but, other than that the sky’s the limit. So, to begin with go dig thru your fabric stash and look for the following.</span></p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b><u>Fabric Requirements</u></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">Blue background fabric- 2 yards</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">white fabric (snowman faces) - 1/2 yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">green (trees) - 3/4 yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b>pieced border</b> - red- 3/4-yard, pink - 1/2-yard, light green- 1/2-yard, light blue- 3/4-yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">orange- snowman noses</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b>scrappy hats</b>- 10 plus fat quarters or a combination of fat quarters and fat eights in a variety of colors such as red, blue, yellow, pink, green, purple. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Now let's get stitching!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbvdLrNc3cZJY8o_qZYdbOGDiA4Zpy7EUbVdF1VCawzbxeSs4MK-WcMEMADWrnZUDeaOCy0J3T583cC3WLDVJ9DkWVXyLX-alcVbL9TlfrSkPx4ry616LmVno9ikI2sq_2DR_kmJS21bEzuoWwBVUCBThwe1t2zQP5ofPrFFagD64cYjzJ_SzpMm5R1WAi/s676/snowman%203.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="149" data-original-width="676" height="142" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbvdLrNc3cZJY8o_qZYdbOGDiA4Zpy7EUbVdF1VCawzbxeSs4MK-WcMEMADWrnZUDeaOCy0J3T583cC3WLDVJ9DkWVXyLX-alcVbL9TlfrSkPx4ry616LmVno9ikI2sq_2DR_kmJS21bEzuoWwBVUCBThwe1t2zQP5ofPrFFagD64cYjzJ_SzpMm5R1WAi/w640-h142/snowman%203.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Cabin; font-size: medium;">Snowman Hat Rectangle- Sew a

It's first false spring here in Minnesota. It's unseasonably warm here this week. It's supposed to hit 50's today. I should take Josephine for a walk, but she had a bath the other day and she's looking so nice that I hate to chance her rolling in something disgusting at the park. It's crazy warm, I've even cracked open a couple of windows to air the house out. I suddenly have spring fever and it's too soon! Toooooo sooooooo....... although it's been glorious to finally see the sunshine and blue skies. We had several days of gloom and fog the previous week.</span><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;">With my spring fever comes the urge to clean and straighten up my sewing room. It's very much needed. I'm sure I will be distracted by the pretty things I will find as I clean, lol! <br /></span><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Now onto this year’s block of the month, it’s sorta a mystery and I am encouraging everyone to use fabric from their stash. You will want the same background color for the quilt to tie it all together but, other than that the sky’s the limit. So, to begin with go dig thru your fabric stash and look for the following.</span></p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b><u>Fabric Requirements</u></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">Blue background fabric- 2 yards</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">white fabric (snowman faces) - 1/2 yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">green (trees) - 3/4 yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b>pieced border</b> - red- 3/4-yard, pink - 1/2-yard, light green- 1/2-yard, light blue- 3/4-yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">orange- snowman noses</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b>scrappy hats</b>- 10 plus fat quarters or a combination of fat quarters and fat eights in a variety of colors such as red, blue, yellow, pink, green, purple. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Now let's get stitching!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbvdLrNc3cZJY8o_qZYdbOGDiA4Zpy7EUbVdF1VCawzbxeSs4MK-WcMEMADWrnZUDeaOCy0J3T583cC3WLDVJ9DkWVXyLX-alcVbL9TlfrSkPx4ry616LmVno9ikI2sq_2DR_kmJS21bEzuoWwBVUCBThwe1t2zQP5ofPrFFagD64cYjzJ_SzpMm5R1WAi/s676/snowman%203.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="149" data-original-width="676" height="142" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbvdLrNc3cZJY8o_qZYdbOGDiA4Zpy7EUbVdF1VCawzbxeSs4MK-WcMEMADWrnZUDeaOCy0J3T583cC3WLDVJ9DkWVXyLX-alcVbL9TlfrSkPx4ry616LmVno9ikI2sq_2DR_kmJS21bEzuoWwBVUCBThwe1t2zQP5ofPrFFagD64cYjzJ_SzpMm5R1WAi/w640-h142/snowman%203.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Cabin; font-size: medium;">Snowman Hat Rectangle- Sew a

I have a niece who is in love with llamas, so I certainly had her in mind when I drew this design up. My dad- way back in the day worked for the Llama Registry in Minnesota after he retired. He loved it, he also worked with my sister there. Another reason why he loved working at the registry! I thought of the sweet memories and stories he'd share when I stitched this up. It's a fun design to make. I was able to get it done in an afternoon. I made my llama's white and cream, but you can have fun and make yours any color combo! There are so many different types and colorings for llamas. </span><div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-65_-mkQDb48/Wl9-vhPbrHI/AAAAAAAAIaw/bpNih92SPyMo2TiyAt1ne1JmIYv6WC7xgCEwYBhgL/s1600/IMG_0727.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="720" height="400" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-65_-mkQDb48/Wl9-vhPbrHI/AAAAAAAAIaw/bpNih92SPyMo2TiyAt1ne1JmIYv6WC7xgCEwYBhgL/s400/IMG_0727.JPG" width="225" /></span></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption"><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Something I wanted to share that is a little different then I normally do is, instead of sewing with brown or black thread.

For me it’s officially the new year when the ball drops in New York City and I hear Frank Sinatra singing ‘New York, New York’. The fireworks in our neighborhood at midnight are just a bonus! It’s always fun to watch the fireworks display at Buck Hill every year from our own front yard…. oh!! and it finally snowed here in Minnesota! We woke up to a snow-covered yard Sunday morning, it was very pretty. I have also awakened this morning to my New Year's cold. It seems as soon as the holidays are over, I relax and come down with my annual holiday cold. I was planning on going over to visit baby girl but I'm rethinking it, I don't want to get little munchkin sick. I may be spending the day wrapped up in a quilt with a movie.</span><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Now onto this year’s block of the month, it’s sorta a mystery and I am encouraging everyone to use fabric from their stash. You will want the same background color for the quilt to tie it all together but, other than that the sky’s the limit. So to begin with go dig thru your fabric stash and look for the following.</span></p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b><u>Fabric Requirements</u></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">Blue background fabric- 2 yards</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">white fabric (snowman faces) - 1/2 yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">green (trees) - 3/4 yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b>pieced border</b> - red- 3/4-yard, pink - 1/2-yard, light green- 1/2-yard, light blue- 3/4-yard</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">orange- snowman noses</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><b>scrappy hats</b>- 10 plus fat quarters or a combination of fat quarters and fat eights in a variety of colors such as red, blue, yellow, pink, green, purple. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: medium;">Now let's get stitching!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbvdLrNc3cZJY8o_qZYdbOGDiA4Zpy7EUbVdF1VCawzbxeSs4MK-WcMEMADWrnZUDeaOCy0J3T583cC3WLDVJ9DkWVXyLX-alcVbL9TlfrSkPx4ry616LmVno9ikI2sq_2DR_kmJS21bEzuoWwBVUCBThwe1t2zQP5ofPrFFagD64cYjzJ_SzpMm5R1WAi/s676/snowman%203.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="149" data-original-width="676" height="142" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbvdLrNc3cZJY8o_qZYdbOGDiA4Zpy7EUbVdF1VCawzbxeSs4MK-WcMEMADWrnZUDeaOCy0J3T583cC3WLDVJ9DkWVXyLX-alcVbL9TlfrSkPx4ry616LmVno9ikI2sq_2DR_kmJS21bEzuoWwBVUCBThwe1t2zQP5ofPrFFagD64cYjzJ_SzpMm5R1WAi/w640-h142/snowman%203.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Cabin; font-size: medium;">Snowman Hat Rectangle- Sew a

I am encouraging you to use your fabric stash for this project. Listed below are the fabric requirements... it's a guideline for you to go thru your fabric stash.... do you have a ton of fat quarters? These will work well for this project. Do the snowmen look familiar? This quilt is a spin off from a quilt design from several years ago.... This project will be a great skill builder... It's mostly pieced with a little applique. The carrot noses for the snowmen will be appliqued. The eyes and mouth can either be done by adding buttons or yo-yos, but that will come later on. The trees can all be the same, or all made scrappy. Again, I am encouraging you to use your fabric stash, I know that I will be for my quilt. The quilt will feature a group of snowmen with scrappy hats.

It's a tradition that we started years ago! My boys were little! I always looked forward to baking that day with my sisters and nieces. I always make the same things, caramel, dipped pretzels and peanut butter yo-yos. This year I bought some special frosting Santas and penguins to decorate my peanut butter yo-yos with. I also got some cute snowman carrot noses to make snowmen! I also purchased some cute boxes and bags to package things in. Most everything I make is an almond bark dipped item so that my nieces and sisters can use the oven. Mom's oven sure gets a workout that day! It's always a fun filled day full of visiting and baking. <p></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcfWsdGRvyjlZ-JNwzSEJRKICijf7XD5mSBSYEzIvJ1zbCBoy6dFhepPFFHmqMyEZ2r3igK5dK7d0eW6RwpYiCSfcN-ESqCgtKwtG2OlCRLxpbrKKJdOuJ3FpMIr3N-c1BWq6ZqMpc5Ia8gX8DMJfxtqa7FNFu_9S5fYs9ZvvfqDYAszz5n69nhrchCZJi/s462/caramel%202.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="391" data-original-width="462" height="542" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcfWsdGRvyjlZ-JNwzSEJRKICijf7XD5mSBSYEzIvJ1zbCBoy6dFhepPFFHmqMyEZ2r3igK5dK7d0eW6RwpYiCSfcN-ESqCgtKwtG2OlCRLxpbrKKJdOuJ3FpMIr3N-c1BWq6ZqMpc5Ia8gX8DMJfxtqa7FNFu_9S5fYs9ZvvfqDYAszz5n69nhrchCZJi/w640-h542/caramel%202.JPG" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I make six batches of caramel and I'm also so appreciative when I have help wrapping it all!</span></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtEV8rCQ-32VOwaNGOdfoDOFo0TbTJTQeeHh2eO5gY0aVKhgGfiCHva7W1yKDIPrMijnQYbXv6CLMyBJ-xLA26fuves_eNRs1jJ8KhJdG5iXU9pNyGvnF21W_anz9Z1O40dqJXHAv4Srzw5n2u_uvz9pDreX5pbwEEXu8YrEsPPx4mjLiyrvUxwUxpcHhe/s640/caramel%203.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="494" data-original-width="640" height="309" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtEV8rCQ-32VOwaNGOdfoDOFo0TbTJTQeeHh2eO5gY0aVKhgGfiCHva7W1yKDIPrMijnQYbXv6CLMyBJ-xLA26fuves_eNRs1jJ8KhJdG5iXU9pNyGvnF21W_anz9Z1O40dqJXHAv4Srzw5n2u_uvz9pDreX5pbwEEXu8YrEsPPx4mjLiyrvUxwUxpcHhe/w400-h309/caramel%203.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: large;"><u>Microwave Caramels</u></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: large;">1/4 Cup Butter</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: large;">1/2 cup white sugar</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: large;">1/2 cup brown sugar</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: large;">1/2 cup light Karo Syrup</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: large;">1/2 cup sweetened condensed </span><span style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: large;">milk.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: large;">Combine all ingredients.

Dropping a little of the mixture into a glass of cold water, if the caramel can be formed into a soft ball, then it's done. </span></div><p style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: Calibri;

It's hard to believe that the end of the year is almost here! There is so much to do this time of year. I haven't gotten my tree or any of the decorating done yet. Hubby did his part; I came home thanksgiving weekend to a beautifully decorated house all lit up with the Christmas lights. He always waits until after thanksgiving to put up the lights. It's such a treat to come home to see the Christmas lights on. I have to say, I did get the front porch decorated with pine boughs and dogwood once the Christmas wreath arrived. I'm planning on getting the inside of the house done this weekend. I'm going to need some help hoisting the tree boxes upstairs. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span>It's also time to wrap up our yearlong project with a big red bow.

It's free the month of December. Gather your fabrics, try to work from your scraps from the previous blocks if you can. I have also added a few fabrics from my fabric stash.

Trace out one set of the snow-covered cabin shapes onto the paper side of the fusible interfacing. Group shapes that share the same color fabric. Press onto the wrong side of the fabric. Cut out the shapes, peel off the paper backing and place the shapes fusible side down on the right side of the blue background strip, centering the design onto the ... and to all a goodnight panel. Press shapes in place following the fusible manufacturer's directions. Stitch around the raw edges of the applique using either a straight stitch or buttonhole stitch. If you're unsure of your stitch size, practice on some scrap material until you find the setting that you want to use for the machine applique. The snow can be made using white buttons or small yo-yo's.

I'll be having my boys, and their families join us this Sunday for an early celebration. I need to make some serious lists so I don't forget to do something! I have busy decorating the house with fall leaves and pumpkins, some of it was leftover from Halloween. I like to decorate the table too for dinner and I've been on the look out for something for the place settings. I've been looking online, made a couple of trips to Hobby Lobby and I didn't have to look further then my sewing room! I decided to make some quilted leaves using up my bits and pieces that I had in a fabric bin.

I love Halloween! It was fun to see all of the trick or treaters out and about even though it was a cold evening with remnants of our overnight snowfall. Yes, we woke up to snow yesterday morning! I made my traditional mummy meatloaf and a Jack Skellington pumpkin pie for my family. It was pretty good. Now onto this month's section of the quilt. I decided to split up this month's planned sewing into two. So, the final applique sections will be out December 1st. There is a section that can be pre-sewn together and I will go over that in this blog posting for those of you who want to get a head start on sewing. This month we will be doing a Santa and his reindeer applique onto the Merry Christmas to all... panel. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Make sure you head on over to Quiltdoodledesigns.com and download the pattern. It's free the month of November. Gather your fabrics, try to work from your scraps from the previous blocks if you can. I have also added a few fabrics from my fabric stash. Those of you who got the kits may want to do this also. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2r5MxgYlM5RLjM9TYzdA3_RbMZ0MBdB76tUFKJ2CCRK-JS_TDvOyPrneFrsKdOfRlCw4ODBjAZmLHBlKS4Rj626-GQ5u0J6IX_gpzjgcj9oyBaaHHX54_lfQpyKG7XH4-NxgavM7THZ7A1_Tq_l390beB7SBagOJ6wChvUrdLW_Pv4QDQ2kmIPZjpZefS/s4032/IMG_2582.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2r5MxgYlM5RLjM9TYzdA3_RbMZ0MBdB76tUFKJ2CCRK-JS_TDvOyPrneFrsKdOfRlCw4ODBjAZmLHBlKS4Rj626-GQ5u0J6IX_gpzjgcj9oyBaaHHX54_lfQpyKG7XH4-NxgavM7THZ7A1_Tq_l390beB7SBagOJ6wChvUrdLW_Pv4QDQ2kmIPZjpZefS/w300-h400/IMG_2582.jpeg" width="300" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">After you print up the applique pattern, trace the shapes to the paper side of your fusible web.</span></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsMdnFsjU0q6Yq_YZsI4xPat8gC1EfKPyzmknKC2DzQ_GYcCXPB9rnm-prUX3xPN7geCZa2y91CLuatZGUrj_DZf9fkkhXbhnQMma-8g3zDU2aolUSGwBoRqNEFQRp2RguXkF6-NIMWZzOOa76VNYlOmJhDZpk-w3QXyz4PKqnuqYvLCaaylvSxNhJYwgG/s4032/IMG_2588.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsMdnFsjU0q6Yq_YZsI4xPat8gC1EfKPyzmknKC2DzQ_GYcCXPB9rnm-prUX3xPN7geCZa2y91CLuatZGUrj_DZf9fkkhXbhnQMma-8g3zDU2aolUSGwBoRqNEFQRp2RguXkF6-NIMWZzOOa76VNYlOmJhDZpk-w3QXyz4PKqnuqYvLCaaylvSxNhJYwgG/w480-h640/IMG_2588.jpeg" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Following the manufacture instructions, iron onto the back side of the fabric grouping shapes that will use the same color fabric.

The weekend just flew by! It always goes by so quickly! I like to bring a special treat for everyone so this year I made project bags for each of us and filled them with sewing supplies. (thread, spool holders, wonder clips, hand-made labels and candy, gotta have candy!) For my nephew I got him a couple of Lego sets to work on. These bags are fun to fill for quilting or other crafts that your friends may be doing.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Making project bags was a great way to use up my scrap fabrics from projects past. The bags I made used 2 1/2" squares, a couple fat quarters, or scrap fabric, a zipper and some vinyl. I used fabrics from my stash, so it was a great way to use up what I had. The only thing I had to purchase was the clear vinyl. I'm not a bag maker, I struggle with making bags, but this pattern was easy enough for me to make!</span></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicse9OxZsjn6RnQk7LG_T0AdNXnyRftwBKvmW-QLrYzU27jr5w8ZAVeYdFzcuQeRZfrT0_z_SXtFzHbZjcApW7ZzpGCIMu6AXwvnmTEWOL4AqEoNrsGq6Up-8paAIe2rXBpfjQ2t0ungC6yLiC-2SZrXqKpFgavBOr0-a_EJLPfaqSDuzGM1eFUMEw-XVZ/s2956/403B9BFB-4210-49F5-8EB1-DADBF9144A55.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2956" data-original-width="2956" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicse9OxZsjn6RnQk7LG_T0AdNXnyRftwBKvmW-QLrYzU27jr5w8ZAVeYdFzcuQeRZfrT0_z_SXtFzHbZjcApW7ZzpGCIMu6AXwvnmTEWOL4AqEoNrsGq6Up-8paAIe2rXBpfjQ2t0ungC6yLiC-2SZrXqKpFgavBOr0-a_EJLPfaqSDuzGM1eFUMEw-XVZ/w400-h400/403B9BFB-4210-49F5-8EB1-DADBF9144A55.jpg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I like to chain stitch my squares to form my scrappy back for my project bags.</span></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR-WeTpww_Ma6jSI1wtlVHSs4kVML7EisF0o1k5HaDAkcdZL7i6gMEhHxpN4aFG8083DSspHsMEddefQCAnDXnjuOvpl94XIWCPsY-bHbtYoOiQ52sG2oawRLhVuDQgPAjPvKp1HTkjHXCmfC8sSkHdUolqJrPPkMstQ1sIfZngs3nY0vRofCR51ixes1j/s3024/IMG_0545.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR-WeTpww_Ma6jSI1wtlVHSs4kVML7EisF0o1k5HaDAkcdZL7i6gMEhHxpN4aFG8083DSspHsMEddefQCAnDXnjuOvpl94XIWCPsY-bHbtYoOiQ52sG2oawRLhVuDQgPAjPvKp1HTkjHXCmfC8sSkHdUolqJrPPkMstQ1sIfZngs3nY0vRofCR51ixes1j/w400-h400/IMG_0545.HEIC" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Iron the backing well.</span></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlVbzdTqrjVwBtpO2pF1awvo1v6Olhhagu91llRDNu0XJVT-YWvZnmPy-G3kPtm_5Nn061FKxZjIYQccISDRYJCHb0O2L-pIlfx5nnl8JUhVtQ3N-saUh1Jo2gaOdw93HHDpjUTZ-vmUhivYDwZ6ItE1vqNKNLqid12quNdN5z_cAxd9QJVsEWjwqGIA5w/s4032/IMG_0546.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlVbzdTqrjVwBtpO2pF1awvo1v6Olhhagu91llRDNu0XJVT-YWvZnmPy-G3kPtm_5Nn061FKxZjIYQccISDRYJCHb0O2L-pIlfx5nnl8JUhVtQ3N-saUh1Jo2gaOdw93HHDpjUTZ-vmUhivYDwZ6ItE1vqNKNLqid12quNdN5z_cAxd9QJVsEWjwqGIA5w/w300-h400/IMG_0546.HEIC" width="300" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Layer with a fun backing fabric, batting (I used up scraps for this) and your pieced square block.</span></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMhdJ9eg2vZjEMYXzRoM_mlMHboPRewGvezyURQvq36XzylSqVsEmN_1WR_L8Pd_wDTZucrOlm8xP2QWXqoazRJxmMYk0maP_Bnk8fdfWYYRYyzHmjJIY87LQd5PNEk7KYJVeSOMCrbAYJyYA_xa2gqA9YaTju7aIjw9PZG1cu6KujlQnQHWFRqXdZTpkl/s4032/IMG_0547.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMhdJ9eg2vZjEMYXzRoM_mlMHboPRewGvezyURQvq36XzylSqVsEmN_1WR_L8Pd_wDTZucrOlm8xP2QWXqoazRJxmMYk0maP_Bnk8fdfWYYRYyzHmjJIY87LQd5PNEk7KYJVeSOMCrbAYJyYA_xa2gqA9YaTju7aIjw9PZG1cu6KujlQnQHWFRqXdZTpkl/w300-h400/IMG_0547.HEIC" width="300" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Quilt as desired.

It's my day to show you some spooky fun! I just got back from a quilt retreat with my mom and sisters. We had a wonderful time. This is our third time going to this retreat and we swore it was haunted, ha ha! It's a charming old creaky house with hidden passages between bedrooms, another locked door that seems to go nowhere, all sorts of creepy stuff which probably wasn't creepy for its time. I also didn't want to sleep in a room by myself, so I was happy to share a room with mom. I've listened to too many Stephen King books this month. So, this year I packed sage candles to burn. I also had some 2 1/2-inch Halloween charms that have traveled to retreat several times. I really didn't know what I wanted to do with them. Well, I finally figured out what I wanted to make with them, with a little inspiration from Pinterest.... I stayed up very late a couple of nights and made these two adorable spooky projects. </span><div><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYHZkp-xrKUrkQq15flNWZbf1rJIcdJpUgPTGLwjOMr-L2dy-TuQd6nswERowaDcO3zmAbtHMfhqxfCXshTipMtoxU30AHlwnJciCer89rrSpiJhmp2I34-C59ucxHvFqImu66W447zFc4zv_OjNQhDgJj7FovUWAA1KzQtr2PqEcBgEuo0jjvMSoTo1T6/s4032/IMG_2446.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYHZkp-xrKUrkQq15flNWZbf1rJIcdJpUgPTGLwjOMr-L2dy-TuQd6nswERowaDcO3zmAbtHMfhqxfCXshTipMtoxU30AHlwnJciCer89rrSpiJhmp2I34-C59ucxHvFqImu66W447zFc4zv_OjNQhDgJj7FovUWAA1KzQtr2PqEcBgEuo0jjvMSoTo1T6/w480-h640/IMG_2446.HEIC" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I laid the 2 1/2" charm squares on the table next to my sewing machine and sewed a few half square triangles and improved sewed blocks for the ghost's eyes.

He also joined us on retreat was excited to check the park activities.

It was exciting to meet with everyone, make some memories, and do some brainstorming for upcoming Quilt Doodle fabric lines and go thru the Marchives (Marcus Fabrics Archives) and dream of some future quilts. Tracy, Lora Lisa and I enjoyed hanging out together and visiting. It was such a pleasure to talk in person instead of over a zoom call. Since Covid I have missed going to Quilt Market and the opportunity to meet in person with Pati, Monika and Kristen. I really have missed the collaboration with fellow designers. This trip was wonderful and was uplifting in so many ways. Our Marcus Family were wonderful hosts and it's always a pleasure to work with them! Thank you, Pati, Monika and Kristen! It was awesome to see the behind the scenes at the Marcus office and meet everyone that makes my ideas into beautiful fabric.</span></span><p></p><p></p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwdvVO4uPGSI_QlKrgqJc6sX21SvJA-V6CFkX4nVOU_Ascf5V6u1Str_M_1-OLCHIGV8r_qGWKP1YN6rYTZtAD1as980pnET3HGGGy1Kbs6bpweWH0mxYvV4T3xu0uPLuy4XwA6EPQnfx_7sH79m1UeMPiUL15qPIUUhO1sANwVvucLVxh9XOSi1SHEqG6/s1186/IMG_1816.PNG" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1186" data-original-width="828" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwdvVO4uPGSI_QlKrgqJc6sX21SvJA-V6CFkX4nVOU_Ascf5V6u1Str_M_1-OLCHIGV8r_qGWKP1YN6rYTZtAD1as980pnET3HGGGy1Kbs6bpweWH0mxYvV4T3xu0uPLuy4XwA6EPQnfx_7sH79m1UeMPiUL15qPIUUhO1sANwVvucLVxh9XOSi1SHEqG6/s320/IMG_1816.PNG" width="223" /></span></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Indie Flower; font-size: medium;">Going thru the Marchives</span></td></tr></tbody></table><span style="font-size: medium;"><span><span style="text-align: center;">For me, I've dreamed of returning to NYC for years, I was once a New Yorker, my family moved to Orange County to the town of Warwick.

This is where I get my inspiration for my project, my first snowman. We built it on top of the plowed snow bank from the street on the edge of the parking lot. My snowman greeted everyone who passed by! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I also have many fond memories of New York and New York City. When we moved into our new home we were greeted by our new neighbors, Anne and Sal, an Italian couple who moved to the suburbs to retire. They introduced us to homemade Italian food and soon became our adopted grandparents. We fondly call them Nana and Uncle Sal. I remember Uncle Sal surprised us Christmas Eve playing Santa Clause, of course I knew it was Uncle Sal and we loved that he stopped by to bring some Christmas cheer! </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Anne and Sal also invited us to a trip to Little Italy in New York City. I remember that they were looking for drapery material to make curtains for their home. So, when I had a chance to see Little Italy again, I was thrilled!

Growing up in New York there were countless field trips to the city. Radio City Music Hall, Times Square, New York Stock Exchange, Metropolitain Musuem of Art and Empire State Building. I remember the street venders and the NY pretzel, and Italian Ice. I remember seeing the Twin Towers being built, seeing them from a bus window as we drove to and from our field trips.

I spent last weekend at my first quilt show since Covid as a vender. My plan was getting home Sunday night and do the October posting. Well, I got home from the show exhausted and passed out in my comfy chair. You know the comfy chair... it sort of sucked me in. Add the weight of a basset hound on your lap and it was all over. Then to add to the delay, baby girl was sick and couldn't go to daycare. Family comes first in my book, so I spent a couple of days with my favorite little girl in the world. We read books, watched Bluey and had spaghetti for lunch. All of her favorite things, grandmas too. So I'm back and playing catch up... </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Now let's talk about this month's blocks. It's the last of the trees! yeah! They are done the same as last month, same size. We'll be working on a set of 4 light green trees. </span></span><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"> These tree blocks measure 7" x 7", this includes the seam allowance. We'll be doing a few more tree blocks and then we will move onto some fun appliques and embellishments over the next couple of months.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixVDienb3SDHPPi-nyPsUOPM640-r-APuGA6DmcxC6B-ev3SoXrHruxlW7XU3WN_zKIoB0UwpF8a0dUsFJXEhhzvGbht0i7tMz1s-eKZJC7YO9gn9s7Dy735L-Eq3o3QE6kUUK8Yali_7ELgm2Oi6sddcSTI45T4nCBuW1hriyUs_Ofpf-dq5E7tJldpEb/s1355/october%20block.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="864" data-original-width="1355" height="408" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixVDienb3SDHPPi-nyPsUOPM640-r-APuGA6DmcxC6B-ev3SoXrHruxlW7XU3WN_zKIoB0UwpF8a0dUsFJXEhhzvGbht0i7tMz1s-eKZJC7YO9gn9s7Dy735L-Eq3o3QE6kUUK8Yali_7ELgm2Oi6sddcSTI45T4nCBuW1hriyUs_Ofpf-dq5E7tJldpEb/w640-h408/october%20block.JPG" width="640" /></a></div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Make sure you head on over to Quiltdoodledesigns.com and download the pattern.

It's actually the perfect time to work on some holiday projects. I made the cutest table runner with a piano key border. It was fun to put together and a great way to use my strip it and Snowfolks fabrics. I used the 'center' rectangle in my Snowfolks panel, the one featuring the snowmen making smores. It's a great project to make to go with a Snowfolks quilt! You will need the following to make a piano key table runner. You'll need 1 Snowfolks panel, 1 fat quarter for the corner triangles. 1/8 yard of each of the Snowfolks coordinating fabrics. I also used the strip it fabric to make the runner scrappier. For the binding you will need 1/4 yard. You will also need a backing fabric, 2/3 yard and batting. The finished measurements of the table runner is 21 1/2" x 33 1/2". You will also need a strip of cream measuring 4" by the width of the fabric.</span></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgktvVearejKYZt7-49_zcvHVINaESHdQK1ao75EpNeQVQcQApvZTSZ3W8qR2KYHWHjYN5s4yhdIyCz3hZ1CxCzNAEsVOjusu04zKH8ZjVun9kmJAC3DFIF8rj6FPi-KBqNgXRenPdRpbzGulOxii5Kn16LV0IH31c7dTo1rDO6_1MP3V4_LHWNFC3ymsRz/s4032/IMG_2034.HEIC" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgktvVearejKYZt7-49_zcvHVINaESHdQK1ao75EpNeQVQcQApvZTSZ3W8qR2KYHWHjYN5s4yhdIyCz3hZ1CxCzNAEsVOjusu04zKH8ZjVun9kmJAC3DFIF8rj6FPi-KBqNgXRenPdRpbzGulOxii5Kn16LV0IH31c7dTo1rDO6_1MP3V4_LHWNFC3ymsRz/w640-h480/IMG_2034.HEIC" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I fussy cut the panel design first making sure that it was at least 12 1/2" for the height, I did not pay attention to the design's width, I just squared it off.

I wish they could live forever. They are sweet, loyal, great listeners and great walking companions. I am particularly fond of Basset Hounds, shhhh, don't tell sweet Lola, my grand puppy. (I love Huskies too) My Josephine is a sweet girl and turning out to be a sweet companion. I didn't know at first, she was a wild puppy with no fear. My last basset, Belvedere was a bit of a scaredy-pants. Josephine is also half Billy goat, she climbs everything! It's common to find her on top of chairs and couches to get a better view outside. I shouldn't be surprised, her mom liked to climb on top of the kitchen table. I saw the pictures! Josephine is also a counter cruiser, which is new to me. None of my dogs have been counter cruisers.... I have upped my keep the counters clean game. She's a challenge but I can overlook all that because she is the best snuggler and hangs out with me on the weekends (snuggled on my lap) as I watch football or the Hallmark channel. She also watches out for me and lets me know when it's bedtime. Somehow, she knows when I need to get to bed for my full eight hours. I love her so. She's a wild one and I wouldn't have her any other way. </span><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQMZl-yOYOobmzwWwhvTURQ08lpIcLsxWsvBiOJLrTp0o7qjsZs49u7RgaltbxWJW62pxRFSvjBsKOtFFZCw-X_L5lMkkMH5R_FLJ80m_tWTUCFP_tfLFeuUGBpzhK5jXlAzNv6_Ax4Kszq5pX0dwNu-XDsORHcVI7OOdC6b8R-dqRnexokeTDHBPWPDUn/s2048/IMG_2156%20(1).jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1910" data-original-width="2048" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQMZl-yOYOobmzwWwhvTURQ08lpIcLsxWsvBiOJLrTp0o7qjsZs49u7RgaltbxWJW62pxRFSvjBsKOtFFZCw-X_L5lMkkMH5R_FLJ80m_tWTUCFP_tfLFeuUGBpzhK5jXlAzNv6_Ax4Kszq5pX0dwNu-XDsORHcVI7OOdC6b8R-dqRnexokeTDHBPWPDUn/s320/IMG_2156%20(1).jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">When I'm designing, I tell Josephine, 'Let's go to work' and she runs into my office and jumps up on the daybed and sleeps. When I'm done, she's all ready to play and do her zoomies around the house. Her favorite thing is going to the dog park or walking trails at a state park. She's not fond of walking the neighborhood, but give her an unpaved trail or rocky shore and she's all in. </span></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhReOBXZ_pFNL5O3IVn7f2466vbGsNkp44upNdznop8yEjr0mmOFFb6KzblaxOa-oBxaDnvLhh2CTPUQ1VHKPMRdKmE5_eIJAgfKLYNK9n9d4p0WDJqfPsBS053WMnGjFQEpb48yHugd7DzO9RR5puNzaWwNhonNCIjzHc5g_DyZfJlq4EKifmIXEU_PB1N/s1280/IMG_7104.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="960" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhReOBXZ_pFNL5O3IVn7f2466vbGsNkp44upNdznop8yEjr0mmOFFb6KzblaxOa-oBxaDnvLhh2CTPUQ1VHKPMRdKmE5_eIJAgfKLYNK9n9d4p0WDJqfPsBS053WMnGjFQEpb48yHugd7DzO9RR5puNzaWwNhonNCIjzHc5g_DyZfJlq4EKifmIXEU_PB1N/w480-h640/IMG_7104.jpg" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">This is a sweet mini quilt I made to look like Joesphine.

Great for a beginner... There's no seams, just some cutting. Once I slice into a panel, the next few cuts seem to come easier. Believe me, I still measure once then measure twice. But it's a little easier. So, grab a panel, I'm using my Snowfolks panel. And fussy cut a small design out, I am using the snowfolks snowman who is ice fishing. Talking about ice fishing, this particular design was inspired by my sons who go ice fishing during the winter up north, way up north in the Lake of the Woods area. Oh, don't worry about how cold it is, they are pretty spoiled and spend their time in an ice castle watching football, playing cards, eating smoked ribs. Okay back to this fun, quick project... which would work with my Snowfolks panel or even my Birds and Bees panel which will be in stores in October! Its also a great way to use up scrap batting and fabric left over from other Snowfolks projects. </span><p></p><p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6Qfg9RBCmNm-1T_UNXY7jtSZFlttD_MGwKFmwL3a9Xcw0IYNlEIHqcDZZrD0oXX8zIbljp3H3XIXtDCC-87O_2ulZWJS7Ce9Jlo5VOmwdh7JW3WNQTIG44T3ljCiEF_M8_5WF5LJnVztLgh7Z-W2qLnv37vKdtw5seFt6gOama5SH21s-yzr6Ep9PrdGy/s4032/IMG_2040.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6Qfg9RBCmNm-1T_UNXY7jtSZFlttD_MGwKFmwL3a9Xcw0IYNlEIHqcDZZrD0oXX8zIbljp3H3XIXtDCC-87O_2ulZWJS7Ce9Jlo5VOmwdh7JW3WNQTIG44T3ljCiEF_M8_5WF5LJnVztLgh7Z-W2qLnv37vKdtw5seFt6gOama5SH21s-yzr6Ep9PrdGy/w480-h640/IMG_2040.HEIC" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I fussy cut my ice fishing snowman and I'm using a nine patch block I made a few weeks ago.</span></td></tr></tbody></table></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6XhdxRSFOXpQBiUUB4xZX6qjDffXQ-_YfmqMU1HFw63OE7rhVr6TuLT6ryEOge5_NyNzVmU7-EGLl6IiPVFRlDVDDoO-o_i9yrCUk4PG0TlNX8x-pCgN_9zU8qEvu1lp2XYnvclLXNrxSJXaE6IHcGQN6ET6YqW5vDXqoZD7lPj2RmyoUEbQbxsytj4J9/s4032/IMG_2057.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6XhdxRSFOXpQBiUUB4xZX6qjDffXQ-_YfmqMU1HFw63OE7rhVr6TuLT6ryEOge5_NyNzVmU7-EGLl6IiPVFRlDVDDoO-o_i9yrCUk4PG0TlNX8x-pCgN_9zU8qEvu1lp2XYnvclLXNrxSJXaE6IHcGQN6ET6YqW5vDXqoZD7lPj2RmyoUEbQbxsytj4J9/w480-h640/IMG_2057.jpeg" width="480" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Make a quilt sandwich with you batting, backing (my nine patch) and the snowman block, then quilt as desired...

I agonize over making a mistake, especially if I took the time to embroider the panel too. My Snowfolks panel has six fun sections, all different shapes and sizes.

It uses my Strip It fabric from Marcus Fabrics and with just a few seams you can have a quilt top done in no time. Let me show you how you can have this quilt top done in an afternoon.

The Strip It fabric is so much fun to play with. With just a few seams it's easy to create a scrappy border. The five inch squares are the perfect space to feature some fun quilting. Darci quilted a fun orange peel design. It is also a great space for squiggles, snowflakes, meandering, let your imagination go! I used a coordinating cream swirl fabric for the backing but a minkie would be so yummy on a wintery quilt. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I hope you have a wonderful day and find some time to do some stitching,</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;">Happy quilting,</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: courier; font-size: x-large;">Cindy and Josephine</span></div>Quilt Doodle Designshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17595359656477088279noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5086454657691142891.post-26429389775884559212023-08-07T09:24:00.003-05:002023-08-07T09:24:00.142-05:00Easy Four Patch<p><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxK4xtCTyRmXxktiOCs-OufL_WMAOHKBO2QSdafSDUBR4QVTNAY71R5I-T-z8k4zwvjG9ASXxRTHf_kK9fS5OMxS7HXsW7k7BP0naJNrCN1K9MYXCrcgETsy2xDZV-qp2Ht7iPqbHof-SVIXr3igtuNacYUZHtaJxVW_-fdfMpQI7RJu-m6-8ai0mThHCr/s1773/C231FC6C-F2CB-4F7B-BB23-A70AD2D8576A.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1773" data-original-width="1773" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxK4xtCTyRmXxktiOCs-OufL_WMAOHKBO2QSdafSDUBR4QVTNAY71R5I-T-z8k4zwvjG9ASXxRTHf_kK9fS5OMxS7HXsW7k7BP0naJNrCN1K9MYXCrcgETsy2xDZV-qp2Ht7iPqbHof-SVIXr3igtuNacYUZHtaJxVW_-fdfMpQI7RJu-m6-8ai0mThHCr/w200-h200/C231FC6C-F2CB-4F7B-BB23-A70AD2D8576A.jpeg" width="200" /></span></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />I was playing around with my Strip iIt fabric the other day and found you could use it to jumpstart a disappearing four patch block. Out of each 5 1/2” x WOF you can get one block and leftover scraps for some snowball blocks. But if you cut 5” x WOF you can easily get two blocks. Let me explain… I played around and originally cut 5 1/2” widths for my sample and it wasn’t until I competed my block that I can get two blocks if I cut 5” widths. This would be playing with the eight fabrics in the strip it to get fun scrappy block.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_GktRLArVapHdI2vWw9E3Fdvyg4K4UianSEBVu_OdRuZ64DXZaQgwQ-0MqNIQ5lrEKtMoRQYvZ7P4IKwHUlcjEqayFEXAxXuhMEiiIYHEjshcHfh_m4Pikl5aqB2H0BpMXj4NCC5dxV_jgLVcno8aQBrr3tzsttGQxKxX8jf-ZLKXBVRSOM8kpFXPkeoJ/s1784/024D7221-6D2C-46AE-89AB-D5A14A551306.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="983" data-original-width="1784" height="352" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_GktRLArVapHdI2vWw9E3Fdvyg4K4UianSEBVu_OdRuZ64DXZaQgwQ-0MqNIQ5lrEKtMoRQYvZ7P4IKwHUlcjEqayFEXAxXuhMEiiIYHEjshcHfh_m4Pikl5aqB2H0BpMXj4NCC5dxV_jgLVcno8aQBrr3tzsttGQxKxX8jf-ZLKXBVRSOM8kpFXPkeoJ/w640-h352/024D7221-6D2C-46AE-89AB-D5A14A551306.jpeg" width="640" /></span></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMVwVnNrakSHe9YgmJct5Ddk_EmcKsxfK52J0bihsW1D1f-BlzPJ24_D0gT9Ik5_lZrbFD2FuhdjNtweEMOlUUqxdxoDLuQXBR_y8_vGTo-ef2IoFpiHHLToHoxMAM5wujoELSLFwchqLGuAp7N7yPfuiqS_A26VVPiOO0H55KyiYZsFShRvc6WO0RCSRr/s1793/960FC53C-45E7-49C7-A326-A75DA4BF6EE3.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="976" data-original-width="1793" height="348" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMVwVnNrakSHe9YgmJct5Ddk_EmcKsxfK52J0bihsW1D1f-BlzPJ24_D0gT9Ik5_lZrbFD2FuhdjNtweEMOlUUqxdxoDLuQXBR_y8_vGTo-ef2IoFpiHHLToHoxMAM5wujoELSLFwchqLGuAp7N7yPfuiqS_A26VVPiOO0H55KyiYZsFShRvc6WO0RCSRr/w640-h348/960FC53C-45E7-49C7-A326-A75DA4BF6EE3.jpeg" width="640" /></span></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />If you want a traditional disappearing four patch you can cut 5” squares from each of the fabrics in the strip it and construct squares that way.
