What's on the Quilting Table #10


Today starts out with me still cutting the blocks?  Did I not end there yesterday?  Oh well had some more to cut.


While Tanya was waiting to tell me what I was going to do with the blocks I sat down and put the binding on I think 6 hot pads that was sitting in the too do box for way too long (maybe 6 months?)


Oh now I know what I am doing it seems that I am going to make 2 really simple quilt tops just made out of just 6 inch squares.  I told Tanya that it was too simple and boring I like to cut things into smaller pieces before I sew them back together but as a good husband I did what I was told.


Any way 2 quilt tops is what I had 


when this day was finally over.

What's on the Quilting Table #9


Today on the Quilting table we have one of my reunion quilts being bound.  While I guess I have to trim it first.


When I first started quilting I totaly dreaded binding.  After the hundreds of quilts I have done its secound nature it now takes me more time to cut and iron the binding then it does to sew it on.


This 2nd quilt on the table today was pieced by Tanya.  I am not sure what pattern she used for this quilt but it was a great way to use up many scraps we had in the bin.


After timing up this quilt I also bound it.


Tanya handed me a stack of fat quarters and told me to cut them into 6 inch square so I did no questions asked.  What do you think she plans to do with them?  She never tells me so who knows.  In our house I cut and she bastes.  Thats our rule and it works well for us.

What's on the Quilting Table #8


Whats on the Quilting Table today you ask?  Well it is now time to sit down and quilt the 2 Reunion Simple Squares Quilts out of our pattern we sell on crafty


This is one of my favorite quilts for using up all the little scraps I have left over from other bigger projects this quilt is mad out of 3 1/2 inch blocks and works great to use up the odd ball fabrics.


These are quick and easy to though together and I can quickly quilt them for baby gifts for the many friends having baby's and of course we sell the extra's on Etsy


Of course once the quilt is quilted it must be bond


Cant wait to get some good pictures of these and post the finishes look forward to this in the next few weeks.  You ask why it might take weeks?  Well I have finished about 15 quilts that I have yet to blog about.  Yes I am a slacker.

What's on the Quilting Table #7

While today's WOQT come's at a cost.  The cost is my keyboard.  When I sat down to type this out I realized the keys on my key board were a little wet.  I picked it up and about a cup flooded out of it.


Any way I had to steal my wife's keyboard off her computer to make this post (oh and re-boot my computer 3 times) so It is going to be just 3 pictures.  You are just going to have to guess what it is.


One hint baby quilt, new design pattern will be created and shared when done.  Oh and this is a Tanya design not a Richard design which might be why I was cursing trying to make the block she has in this pattern but boy oh boy its looking cute.  Oh ya and this is the boy quilt I am making.  There is a girl version also.
