A little fabric luv… | greenwichminus8
https://greenwichminus8.wordpress.com/2013/10/19/a-little-fabric-luv
Just another WordPress.com site. A little fabric luv…. From the Etsy shop New Mom Designs. I find Etsy a great source of interesting, hard to find and unique items and have recently bought original jewelry, an oil painting (bumblebees, so beautiful! And a yard of a very hard to find fabric I fell in love with and first spotted in a Pinterest pin. I really liked this fresh, modern fabric. Enjoy! I live in the Pacific Northwest, in Tsawwassen, BC, Canada, a small bedroom suburb of Vancouver, BC.

Homeward Bound: Block #48 | greenwichminus8
https://greenwichminus8.wordpress.com/2013/10/15/homeward-bound-block-48
Just another WordPress.com site. Homeward Bound: Block #48. This block is a good test of your basic accuracy skills. No need to paper piece this one! Just cut accurately and mind where your seams intersect. I cut my three colours into strips first, then cut the unit pieces off the strips. I had intended to make the centre square out of the background fabric, but in the end I went for the punch of cherry red. Below is a preview of what the block would look like with the background as the centre square.

Honey’s Choice: Block #50 | greenwichminus8
https://greenwichminus8.wordpress.com/2013/10/16/honeys-choice-block-50
Just another WordPress.com site. Honey’s Choice: Block #50. The fun of pot luck! As I have completed both a difficult block and an easy block, what would come next? I decided to let the Fates decide, and printed off all 109 remaining paper foundation patterns, shuffled them up and pulled one from the pile. As luck would have it, #50 was the block drawn, the charmingly named “Honey’s Choice”. Turns out, Honey’s Choice presents some interesting design choices! Look at these two versions, below:. Very accur...

Salty, Sweet:Buttertart Squares | greenwichminus8
https://greenwichminus8.wordpress.com/2013/09/08/salty-sweetbuttertart-squares
Just another WordPress.com site. Salty, Sweet:Buttertart Squares. Salt, sweet, buttertart squares! There is a time for every purpose under heaven…and fall is the time for Buttertart Squares. As delicious as buttertarts, but much easier to assemble, prepare and serve! I was raised on buttertarts, that Canadian staple, and thought nothing could ever beat the warm, Northern Lights aglow experience of a steaming mug of good tea washing down a sweet and salty buttertart. By Clo Carey, makes 3 dozen squares.

Just another WordPress.com site. Monthly Archives: October 2013. Two Blocks: #35 Flower Basket and #51 Hovering Birds. Hovering Birds (left) and Flower Basket. It took me a while to finish the Flower Basket block as I have never done this block before and was hesitant to apply the handle! I have always avoided this block for that one simple reason, but finally, I have slain that dragon. If you are new to appliqué, or want a very pleasant and thorough review, I highly recommend Karen Kay Buckley’s D...

Peaceful Hours: Block #65 | greenwichminus8
https://greenwichminus8.wordpress.com/2013/10/14/peaceful-hours-block-65
Just another WordPress.com site. Peaceful Hours: Block #65. Strips cut, paper pattern ready….well, almost! I leafed through the Farmer’s Wife book, searching for an appealing block to begin with. It would have been more logical to begin with the easier blocks, ones with few pieces and straight seams, no points, but those are (by and large) less attractive blocks. On page 51 I found the Peaceful Hours block, assembly diagram on page 192. Peaceful Hours is lovely, but it is very difficult. Of The Quilt Sho...
