    I have my quilt all cut out and ready to piece……in my mind😂 I decided to go on a marathon of quilt making for our local quilt groups charity making quilts, pillow cases and beads of courage bags for our local Children’s Hospital. Having a week or snow, ice and unusual sub zero temperatures gave me time to so far complete 7 flimsys (that I will be quilting this week) , 20 bead bags, and 20 pillow cases😅….I am not sure what got a bee in my bonnet but I am glad to have felt and filled the need to work on what I hope will be blessings for children going thru tough and scary times. And next week? I have EVERY intention of working on my sew along (unless something else sets me off on yet another marathon😀) autism rules!❤

    I notice you have a lot of bright, juvenile prints. I have almost none of those in my stash. I did the b&w phone pic and it certainly helped determine a few combinations that just didn’t work. The only successful “scrappy” quilt so far, I specifically purchased 1/8 yards of fabric for.
    I’m going to keep going out of my scraps. We shall see?! Thanks for the tips, Amy. You make great content.

    Your top is gorgeous! I feel like I have some ugly fabrics but we’ll see how it finishes. I’m about halfway done and just using up fabric mostly. This has been FUN, Amy. Thank you so much for your teaching along the way.

    • @amydement.
      @amydement.  9 місяців тому +1

    Thank you for all the tips, Amy! Love the variety in your fabrics. There will be a bit more repetition among my fabrics, but this is making a great dent in the fabric stash. Challenged myself to use more whites. About halfway through blocks plus using HST’s from my geese method to make some strips that might be a border…maybe. Thanks!

    • @amydement.
      @amydement.  9 місяців тому +1

      Thank You! Trust yourself and play. If it turns out ugly (it likely won't) you'll have learned something and it will still be a cuddly quilt. It's just fabric - have fun. You can totally do this!

    Great suggestions! After deciding the layout of my quilt top, I like to take a photo just in case I somehow get a block or two mixed up. Oopsies! I'll have to try the red filter. Thanks much!

    Your quilt is beautiful. Is there any chance we can see you long arming it. I would love to see your set up. I have recently been thinking about buying a long arm and I love seeing what other people are doing.

    • @amydement.

    I wonder if I'm the only one who can't figure out how you're sewing rows and columns together. I am much more methodical and would appreciate a slowed down tutorial with lots of commentary as to what exactly you're doing. You're grabbing blocks and sewing and I'm lost! Other than that, i love your colorful scrappy geese!

      I know it went fast today. I've shown it before and I'll try to show it again at some point. The best thing to do is check the link in the description box - the one that says "webbing the top" it's a walk through with all the info. Thanks so much!
