Hello Andi i can see you are happy 😃 so nice of you to share everything with us! Greetings from Sweden ❤wish I had a longarm but it’s not in the budget 😢
I have a once a week sew day and on two of the days I work on the group project we are doing at the time. The other two days I work on making backs and pinning some projects. So far this year (2024) I have finished 34 projects 🎉 YEA

I have just found you. I also like pre cuts....Jelly Rolls and Layer Cakes. I started quilting again after 15 years. My Hubby gave me a Kaffe 475QE Bernina for my birthday in March. I have finished 4 baby quilts and 4 large lap quilts. Thank you for your tutorials 💓 I am looking forward to learn with you about pre cuts.

Thank you so much for this sewing tip by explaining about thinking about someone's legs. I'm left-handed and this REALLY helped me keep each angle consecutive as l moved down the border.❤
Thank you. I am about to do a pizza box quilt challenge where we have to do two blocks a month for others and there is a lady I don't like so I want something easy. Ha ha ha I think the rail fence variations will be perfect.
Congratulations! I’m still working on my first quilt of the year! In my “defense,” it’s a complicated and huge quilt; but still! I’m piecing the last border. Maybe soon???!!!! 😊
And 6 of the 15 projects are done! I really need to spend more time at the longarm so I will figure out some good camera angles and give that a try soon.
I love these. I started my goals for the year in May and it is also about finishing UFO's and using up fabric that I purchased. I am also not buying fabric unless it is to make binding or add a backing. Your finishes are inspiring!
My Air Force travels were all on Lackland Air Force Base, basic training then off to the north end for Tech school then kicked out for being me aka gay.
The quilt shops that I go to are usually not in my community. It’s so much easier to buy a kit than buying fabric from a shop and run out or too much of a specialty fabric. When I travel I always buy a kits from the distant shops
I don't have anything against quilt kits, it isn't cheating, but I like to make quilts that don't look exactly like every one else's quilts, so I change up the fabric a little so it isn't so similar.
I love both! I found if I need pieces smaller than a fat 1/4 or a 1/2yd or even 1yd Im going to the fabric shops. You never know I might find something I like more. When I started quilting I worked in a quilt shop and you won’t believe it There were no kits (that was just a few days ago 😅)Any way I love both. One thing ILEARNED when you buy bundles buy the border and binding. That could be a problem. I learned the hard way 😮
I worked in a quilt shop before there were jelly rolls! 😂 Yes, definitely get border fabric with the collection right away. I can see how that might be hard to match after time has passed.
