Fall Projects



I've been working on a few projects for my fall seasonal decor! I love to make stack-and-whack quilt blocks--they are fun, easy, quick, and a great use for the fabric stash. Check out Bethany Reynolds' Stack and Whack books! I made two sets of five blocks in fall prints and stitched five together in a row for the runner, with borders and a flat piping insert and contrast binding to set off the blocks. I used the other five blocks to make Georgie Melot's fabulous quick serged pot holders from her wonderful book, Ready, Set, Serge. It's recommended! Great projects and a fun way to learn serger skills. The potholders literally take minutes each to make. I couldn't resist making piles more to share, from my fabric stash. Big fun!

  3. Hiya, I'm really glad I've found this info. Today bloggers publish only about gossips and net and this is actually irritating. A good website with interesting content, that is what I need. Thank you for keeping this web-site, I'll be visiting it. Do you do newsletters? Cant find it.
