Up on the Rooftop Quilt Along
This top was made from a kit from Fat Quarter shop to participate in their quilt-along for Christmas. I did change several things from the original pattern: I made the “h”‘s more cursive and less pixilated-looking from the original pattern. I also changed the background from a solid black to a grunge fabrice. I added the pieced border to mimic and compliment the divider. The backing has been pieced and the name label has been inset into it. The binding has been cut and prepped. What is left to do? I still need to cut batting and sandwich, quilt, and bind the quilt and put in the date tag. I did have to purchase the black thread so I am waiting on that to quilt it. Related Images:

2025 Brown Bag Mystery #1
I kept seeing this Mystery on my Facebook feed and gave in to doing it – I am a sucker for a mystery quilt! I managed to get the top completed and I went to sandwich and quilt it last month, but found out I didn’t have enough backing fabric. So I ordered more. It came in this week, but I have not started the quilting process yet. This is the first time I have used a border print for a border and have mitered the corners. I did have to watch a few youtube videos. I am quite pleased with my mitered corners for it being the first time. Related Images:

Autumn Nights
This cute little wall hanging was from the Fat Quarter Shop’s Autumn Night Quilt along. I just did a quick meander on it to finish it. Related Images:

Some Fabric Therapy
Lisa Bongean of Primative Gatherings is hosting a sew-along to benefit Hogs for Heroes. I had to sew along with them. I have been fighting purchasing more fabric unless it is to finish a quilt or that goes with something I have already purchased. This one called to me. Plain and simple. I purchased the large fat quarter bundle and cleared the decks to start work on this one. If you want to join in, head on over to Lisa Bongean’s blog. The blocks are free, but she does ask for a donation to support Hogs for Heroes. Her goal is to raise $25K, to get one Hog, but wouldn’t it be wonderful if she could get double that? Related Images:
