Monday mysteries solved and a cute baby on a quilt

My guild had a mystery evening last night, where we brought a
set of precut coordinating fabrics
and then made these weighted pincushion organizers.
(The reason the two at the right are matching is
that I cut two from my set of fabrics
and brought one to share.)

Quilting Process: Cutting

I will be honest, cutting for me is the worst part of the quilting process.  I hate the fact that I have to take a wonderful piece of fabric and cut it up into itty bitty little pieces (in some cases).  It is one of the reasons why I enjoy pre cuts so much, they are cut into littler pieces and I don’t feel so rotten cutting them up into more little pieces.

100 Days


She went through my snippets jar, picking out 100 unique pieces of fabric.
She trimmed them into relative squares and rectangles.
She sat on my lap in front of the machine.
She learned how to line up the edges of the fabric, place them, and drop the needle.
She guided them through the machine while I worked the pedal. Or we switched jobs and played Red Light. Green Light.
She placed the rows and sewed some more.

She celebrated 100 Days of school.
