    I love the look of those quilts, Amy! I love sewing quilt tops for the charities my quilt guild supports. Someone will love to cuddle with those special quilts! If something doesn't work on a quilt, or I've run out of fabric, which never happens, into the stash I go. The orange yellow fabric is an added layer of sunshine! The purple hair is back! Have a Happy New Year! Marion in Oregon.🍾

    Hi and congrats on all of the subscribers who follow you. About books - I have Patterns and Paradox checked out from the library right now and I love it! So much history about quilt blocks, the Amish, and so many beautiful quilts. Very inspiring. Other books you may be interested in are - A Common Thread by Gwen Marston, lots of photos, little text, ample inspiration. Also a new book by Nicholas Ball, Use and Ornament, love, love, love it. Read it cover to cover, even the bits about supplies (info I already know). Take care, happy 2025.

    That’s hotter than it gets here in the summer! I’m so jealous. 😂 I thought the yo-yo quilt behind you was an EPP flower quilt 😂
    Those buttons are gorgeous but I’m a sucker for vintage clothes, fabrics and buttons from the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s. That’s not a mistake on your piano key border, it’s a deliberate decision so it’s a design choice. I can’t wait to see the Hawaiian quilt you come up with. I’m weird in that I was a coffee drinker all the way until I was ill. I couldn’t stomach it the thought of it made me 🤢 now I drink tea 95% of the time apart from the two cups of real coffee I have every morning. I need them to kick start my day. 😂

    Yay! 10,000+! You go, girl! I’m hot coffee in the morning…2 cups. After that, meh…occasionally a cup of tea in the afternoon, with a snack, if I need it. But in the summer, I do enjoy a large Dunkin iced coffee as a treat on the weekends. But, no caffeine after about 3pm. I do like to sleep, after all.

The top I’m currently working on, I plan to “float” the piano keys in the border fabric. I too love Mary Fons, must get that book. I’m a coffee drinker, all day, regular and decaf, black and with cream, hot and cold. Occasionally tea. Sparkling water and occasional diet soda too. See you tomorrow.

    My morning doesn't start well without two cups of rich black coffee (preferably a Columbian dark roast.) However ---- ahem, I also have the better part of one kitchen cabinet with many kinds of tea. I love them both.
    My heart leaped when you showed that bag of brightly colored scraps. Ha - as if I need any more fabric. I don't have time to use what I have.
    I totally love the added yellow in the piano key border. I do "crazy" stuff like that all the time. But of course, I have books by Gwen Marston, Jan Mullen and Victoria Findlay Wolfe that have inspired my quilting style.

    Are you going to make a Hawaiian quilt?. If so, count me in!!! I love the look of one large pattern, but I think it would become overwhelming to needle turn applique and then know I still have to hand quilt it. 24" blocks would be easier to needle turn, and then put them together as a top. I have done a Hawaiian wall hanging, and am working on a throw pillow. I guess I have to remind myself that a queen size quilt, would be a 'many year' project.

The manual ones can be a little tough on your hands and wrists if that can be an issue for you.
