PickingandStitching: Possibilities, #1
http://pickinstitchin.blogspot.com/2017/01/possibilities-1.html
Friday, January 6, 2017. Do you love January as much as I do? I'm so glad I left out the green. I'm still trying to use green and black blocks from Grand Illusion that I wouldn't use in the quilt. Next up was cleaning and organizing my stash closet. It wasn't too bad except for the repro fabrics. I keep my Civil War stash separate from the rest. Here is a before picture;. Pitiful, isn't it? Something had to be done, so another bin was created. I separated into lights and darks. Here's my 3 blocks. 160; &...

PickingandStitching: Nautical Knots
http://pickinstitchin.blogspot.com/2016/07/nautical-knots.html
Friday, July 1, 2016. Its just squares and rectangles. My first adventure with it took place with my scraps from the Seven Sisters topper from our guild workshop. There were some 2-1/4" scraps, which I cut down to 2' and made a Christmas Knot. It finished at 6-1/2" and is cute as a button. Just in case, anyone else is having garlic knots or arrowhead puzzles swarming in their heads, here is a short tutorial on the one I drafted. Nautical print - 1/2 yard. Red accent - FQ. Kona Snow background - 1/4 yd.

PickingandStitching: June 2016
http://pickinstitchin.blogspot.com/2016_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 28, 2016. My Quilt Guild recently sponsored a workshop featuring the Seven Sisters quilt pattern which requires Y seams or a partial seaming technique. This is a quilt pattern I had always admired, but found very intimating because of this technique. Kelly Ashton (Kellyquilter.com) taught the class and soon had all of us sewing partial seams like pros. Here's a photo of us at the end of the day, proudly showing our progress. Gina's, in progress. More about that in a subsequent post. I now h...
