Quilty Fun Sew Along - Week 6 - Chubby Chevrons! ...


I thought I'd show you a picture of the
while it was in progress.
I made the first part of it
 while on retreat in September of this year.


Now we are into week 6 already!


It's been so much fun to see everyones blocks so far…
the Quilty Fun flickr group is full of adorable photos!


Hosting this week is my friend 
Go visit her to get all of the details for this week…
wait till you see her scrappy happy chubby chevrons…

Here are mine when they were on the design board in September…
These blocks are easy to do and a great way
 to use up 2 1/2" squares from your scrappy stash.
You can see how an X block is formed
sew very easily by using 4 of my chubs:)

Have a quilty kind of day!!

Stuff Your Stocking with Quilty Fun Notions!!!...



Hello cute people!
I have had so many of you email me about
where to buy my favorite notions 
that are featured in my book...


Lessons in Scrappy Patchwork



I asked Kimberly and the girls over at
 Fat Quarter Shop
 if they would make a page 
on their website where 
you can view them all together
for your convenience…
and of course they said YES!!!
(I just love those girls)


So for those of you who have a
 "notion"
 to have even more Quilty Fun with me…
(pun intended:)

Go ahead and send
to all of your friends and family 
who are wondering what
 you want for Christmas!


I hope you wake up on 
Christmas morning to a
Sock-Full-of-Quilty-Fun!!!

Here is my block on the mug 
that was sent out to
 all of those 100 designers 
who participated in this issue.


We also got a ginormous badge ...fun!!!


All of the blocks in the magazine have instructions
 and all 100 of them finish at 12" square.
You can even win some of the blocks!

This week there is a giveaway for one person to win all 8 volumes.
That is 800 blocks!!!
