Tell a Quilt Story - Quilting Tips from The Quilt Ladies

Every quilt has a story, take a notebook or journal,  a few moments and record your quilts as you make them, photo’s are wonderful, a fabric scrap, why the quilt was made, and always how you felt about the process. I can't tell you the joy is gives me to look through mine.

B...B....Benny !

Pin It
He went to a royal wedding, I watching it on television. He flew in, we drove to Sioux City, Iowa. He parked at the back door, we walked blocks.  
He was on the stage, I was in row 20. He had on a blue shirt, I was in coral plaid. He started to play, I started to cry.  He played for 3 hour and I'm still amazed.
He was on my bucket list and I crossed him off.  I saw Elton John !
Thank you, Sir Elton, what a pleasure.
 Husband, we keep Living the Dream. What a ride !

Applique Fix

 I've started the applique and had to change one of the fabric's.


The one of the left is the original, and the right is what is going to be one of the flowers.




I couldn't get the fabric to turn, as it turned it frayed.



Yellow flowers center's finished.

Purchase Good Fabric Quilt Tips from The Quilt Ladies

Pin It

Purchase the best quality 100% cotton you can afford. It is known as quilter’s cotton. I use the standard rule to wash all cotton as I purchase it. Wash, dry, iron with a dry iron, fold and either use or store.
