Gator Quilt is Sandwich’d – Ready to Quilt

Posted by Brye Lynn on Aug 24, 2011 in Quilting

I am entering the home stretch.  The Gator quilt is finally ready to quilt.

This quilt is being made without batting; just the quilt top and the fleece backing.  Sandwiching it was not fun and very hard to get flat.  When I am doing this, I generally use my hands and do a lot of flattening [...]

Little Brown Bird

Posted by Brye Lynn on Aug 14, 2011 in Applique, Quilting

I have decided that Little Brown Bird by Margart Docherty will be my next applique project.
After my magazine review podcast I heard from Errin telling me all about this pattern and where I can buy the CD.  I immediately ordered it, but when it came it, I knew that I would need more than just [...]

Strip Twist Progress

Posted by Brye Lynn on Mar 23, 2011 in Quilting

I have 6 of the strip twist blocks finished.  This is what they will look like next to each other.  I was worried about the fabric choice, but now I think it will look pretty good.  I will probably use this as a throw for me.

The Geese are Flying

Posted by Brye Lynn on Mar 12, 2011 in Quilting

A few weeks ago, in a tiny bit of a fit, I started a new miniature quilt.  I was working to finish Rick’s gator quilt, and then Rick pulled out the gator blanket he bought at Wal-Mart and that did it.  He didn’t deserve for me to finish his quilt so I started something new.  [...]
