Sunday, January 05, 2014. Saturday, June 01, 2013. I have been collecting black and white fabrics for awhile so I decided to put them to use. I am also using up a few bits of color from my scrap box. I saw this idea on Pinterest. I can't recall who posted it but I fell in love with it nstantly. I'll be making lots more blocks. Each one is about 6 inches square. Saturday, May 25, 2013. Wednesday, May 08, 2013. In Plumas. It was made using the Rapid Fire Hunter Star ruler. Thursday, May 02, 2013. In Plumas...

Saturday, May 25, 2013. I pieced this one with Kaffee Fassett fabrics last year but didn't get it quilted because I wanted to use a wool batt. I finally got one last week and yesterday I put the final hand stitches on the binding. It has a wide black border all around which really sets off the wild colours in the KF fabrics. I love the wool batting. It's super light weight but warm. Wednesday, May 08, 2013. In Plumas. It was made using the Rapid Fire Hunter Star ruler. Thursday, May 02, 2013. Two of my g...

J's Quilting Blog: November 2012
http://jdebreuilsartandquilts.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 29, 2012. I finished sewing the binding down on this one yesterday. Now I have one twin quilt to finish before I leave for Australia next week. I have one side almost done so I'm hopeful. Saturday, November 24, 2012. Monday, November 19, 2012. Wednesday, November 14, 2012. I now have half the blocks put together and the rest are cut out. This one goes together very quickly because the blocks are so big. Now I need to find another big piece of backing fabric. Wednesday, November 07, 2012.

Wednesday, June 27, 2012. These two wall hangings are both sold but I thought a picture on the wall would give an idea of the size. I may have to make another one for myself. I finally got this one quilted and luckily didn't have to turn it on the frame. The binding is leftovers from many quilts so it is as colorful as the rest of the quilt. Now to get at hand sewing the binding down. That's going to take me awhile. Sunday, June 24, 2012. Saturday, June 23, 2012. Tuesday, June 19, 2012. Then the problem ...

J's Quilting Blog: I Spy the Second
http://jdebreuilsartandquilts.blogspot.com/2013/05/i-spy-second.html
Thursday, May 02, 2013. I Spy the Second. I have started a new I Spy crazy quilt. I went to Kickass Country Store. In Plumas to look for novelty print fabrics. They sell I Spy kits of suitable fabrics that they have put together so I bought one of those plus a few more quarter yards of other cute fabrics. This weekend our local quilt show will he held and I'm sure there will be lots of vendors so I'll probably end up with more picture fabric. I'm thinking I'll have to do several more of these.

Wednesday, October 31, 2012. I have this one all pieced together and I put it on my queen sized bed to see if it would be big enough. It's 76x62 and just fits the top of my bed so I'm sure that's big enough for a twin bed. Now to find some backing and get it quilted. Sunday, October 28, 2012. It is supposed to finish at about 60x72. I may put a border around it to make it a bit bigger but if not, I'll bind it with the orange fabric. Wednesday, October 24, 2012. Tuesday, October 23, 2012. I have added som...

Sunday, August 12, 2012. Ariana's Quilt Part 2. The quilt is all pieced and is about 71 x 99 with the 10 inch white border. Now I have to find some backing and quilt it. Friday, August 10, 2012. I only need to make four more blocks for this one. It will have two inch white sashing and possibly a narrow piano key border with wider white borders on each side of it. I have not arranged these at all yet so there's still lots of fun left on this one. Friday, August 03, 2012. Thursday, August 02, 2012.

Saturday, September 29, 2012. This is the second quilt using the same inner blocks but with different outer pieces and different sashing. I haven't been in the studio much lately because the gorgeous autumn colours have been luring me outdoors. Winter will soon be here and then, hopefully, the quilting will kick back in. Monday, September 17, 2012. On Sunday I went for a hike with friends on the Rae Trail which is north of Holland, Manitoba and a couple of hours drive from my home. I put a dark brown bor...
