Square Heart Quilt Pattern

On a Whim...

in my sewing room I took out "The Box" all the odds-n-ends

too good to throw away

I chose a green with red flowers and a red paisley.
for one heart cut, 

Red is cut 1 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Green is cut 1 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Green is 2 1/2" x 1 1/2"

Sew the Red to the Green square 1 1/2 x 1 1/2", then add the 2 1/2 x 1 1/2"

Cut Squares 2 1/2" x 2 1/2"

Sew to the ends and trim to 1/4" all around

Log Cabin Quilt Pattern in Pink !

I love PINK, 
there is nothing better to me than PINK.

 I've decided to do some decorating??

The furniture is hand me down, I like it, but I'm making pillows for the backs.

I'm using a log cabin pattern, these are cut 2" x 2"
Sewn together and pressed to the outside. I cut some strips for the outside edges 2 " wide and add them, I don't measure each one.

Here's the pattern to follow,

I've added a great border and this will be the backing too !

Nine Patch Table Topper Tutorial from The Quilt Ladies

Part Three of Nine Patch Little Quilt

Background fabric

The best way is to.....just lay it all out 

This purple paisley is the one I thought would work?

NO.

Rust

Darker, deeper purple

WHICH ONE ?

The Quilt Ladies Store

I went with the rust color, border, not liking.

Cut 4 Squares - 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"

Cut 4 Squares - 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" Cut from Corner to Corner Half Triangles
these are your edge triangles

Cut 1 Squares - 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" 
Cut from Corner to Corner and again
Cut from Corner to Corner  Quarter Triangles 

TIP:

When cutting your corners and side triangles, I always cut them 1/2" to 3/4" larger then needed. Fabric does not stretch and I just cut it down.

How to Sew a Nine-Patch Quilt Block - Part Two

Tutorial on how to make a small Nine Patch 

Cutting for ONE Block
Cut 1 Center - 1" x 1"
Cut 4 Edges - 1" x 1"
Cut 4 Center - 1" x 1"

With smaller blocks:

Use the same 1/4" seam allowance you always do.

After sewn, cut the seam allowance down. 

I like to press my seams on the center row to the outside,
and the top/bottom rows to the inside. This is the way, I like to do it, but as long as they are opposite?? it's all good. 

I pin everything, again, use a 1/4" seam allowance
and cut it down or in half.

 All the bottom
