"LITTLE TREASURES" Block Bundles are now available!



Introducing "LITTLE TREASURES" bundles of little quilt block patterns!  

There are now five bundles of patterns (containing 9 blocks each) available at www.fabrictherapyonline.com.  They are available as digital downloads or you can get them the old-fashioned way...through the US mail.

(When figuring postage on the store site, each "bundle" is considered a "pattern.")

The thumbnails of ANIMALS (1) are pictured above.  Each bundle contains nine patterns and a thumbnail/instruction page.  The patterns can be used "as is" to make 6-inch blocks, or you can follow the enlargement directions to make 9- or 12-inch blocks.

Here are the thumbnails displaying the contents of the FLOWERS (1) bundle.


I got so carried away drawing flowers that there is a second bundle of flower blocks.  Here's FLOWERS (2)...


There is a bundle of fruits and vegetable related blocks, FRUIT-VEG (1)...


The MISC (1) bundle contains a range of blocks including two that can be personalized by embroidery or archival Pigma pens.  The "Bundle of Joy" block celebrates the birth of a baby and the "Anniversary Banner" can celebrate a wedding or relationship.  They have room for names and a date.

There are more coming...another MISC bundle, a DOG-CAT bundle, and a BIRD bundle.  Coming up with new blocks is easy...doing it in multiples of nine is a little trickier.

There is a PHOTO GALLERY OF PATTERNS on the store site where I am putting color pictures of each block as I get them stitched up.

Here are the most recent completions...



This is such a fun project to be working on!  And this is really pushing my computer skills.  I just drafted another 8 blocks in the last 24 hours that I need to prep and stitch.

I chose to make the blocks to finish 6 inches as I am mixing them with swap block for a Michigan Memory quilt.  They would also make a nice quilt label at the smaller size, worked up on a larger background, of course.

I am looking forward to making the flower blocks to finish 12 inches for another quilt I have in mind.

Watch this space!!

My new project..."QUEEN MARY'S GARDEN © 2018"

Image
Mary, Queen of Scots was born in Scotland on December 8, 1542.  Her parents were King James V of Scotland and the King's second wife (from France), Marie of Guise.   She is pictured above at age seven. Of all six of his children, Mary was the only child to outlive him who was legitimate of birth. At the age of six-days-old, Mary's father, the King, died.  As he had been on his death bed at the time of her birth, he never even saw his new daughter.  Nevertheless, at six days of age, Mary became the Queen of Scotland and the newest ruler from the House of Stuart.   A Reagent would rule in her place until she was older. Mary was sent to school in France, where she was taught many things including embroidery and other textile arts.  She loved needlework and had quite a talent for the beautiful variety of complicated and expressive stitches.   She was a lifelong fan of embroidery and would come to lean on her artistic abilities through her life as ...

Pictures from the AQS Fall Paducah Quilt Show...

Image
It was a quick trip to the AQS Fall Paducah Quilt Show in Kentucky, but my first time to visit Paducah. I was blown away by the number of quilts on display, in multiple buildings, both contest and exhibition.  What I saw and could take pictures of was merely a drop in the proverbial quilt bucket.  I currently have a bit of a gimpy foot, so my viewing was limited. Next time I need to stay more than one night! I managed to get pictures of 40 quilts to share.   One of the most impressive quilts was one I couldn't get anywhere near for even one picture..."Hawaiian Improv," by Cheryl See.  It won in the large quilts, hand quilted category.   (She also won a first prize in a second category.)    Beautiful hand quilting!  It was one of the first place category winners which is involved in the voting for the super huge money prizes tonight.  You can see it on the AQS Fall Paducah web site.  The maker was giving detailed tours of her quilt to sma...
