I have a wee teeny tiny little collection of holiday fabrics (insert eyes looking to the heavens…) So I got out the crate.. tub... um.. I mean little box of them … and used a piece of my Santa fabric for the window! I'm going to start looking for darling prints to add in!
We are on Block #4.. below is the download & link to my project page with ALL the blocks
TRUE CONFESSION.. this is 'Try #2' as 'Try #1' didn't quite make it.. want to see?
When I made this block I didn't think about how using a different fabric at the bottom would create an entirely new look. It makes the house short. I put it on my design wall for awhile and it bugged me.
So I had a date with Jack, Jack the Ripper, and fixed it up! Don't you think it's better on the one above it?

Those blocks are sooooo cute. Thanks so much for the generous giveaway it’s wonderful 😊
I am just beginning and have only done small projects.
But I am now doing your Grandma’s Kitchen…one set of blocks in regular
prints and one set in Christmas print. I decided if I am going to learn
to quilt why not jump in with both feet and do 2 at a time!!!!
I plan on making a double bed size of be my neighbor, love the colors of the blue
I find machine quilting easier for me on small projects or lap quilts.
I mostly make small quilts, but I’m to the point that I need a new quilt for my bed, so I’m going to make one. And guess what, blue was the color I had my eye on. Thanks so much for your help and hints.
I MAKE many full or lap size quilt tops but I FINISH the baby Quilts and table toppers and bags.
I make mostly lap size quilts, because it is really difficult to quilt large ones on my domestic sewing machine. Yes, I know it can be done . . but it is difficult. I am on a fixed income so I really don’t have the money to send them out to a longarm quilter either.
I love seeing your ideas. So much inspiration.
I love small squares that make a quilt. That’s why I’m loving these sew alongs.
Oh my! Where to start? If it’s sewing, I do it! Yesterday, after working all day, I finished block 3 of Be My Neighbor, then I cut and sewed this weeks Grandma’s kitchen block. THEN, I cut out the material and started sewing our granddaughter’s Halloween costume. I love to sew anything and everything! Every time I take on a new project, my husband says “How are you going to find time for that?” I treat my sewing like a second job. I give myself deadlines and do my best to meet them. I sew for love (projects for friends and family). I tell my kids as long as I can keep a needle in my hand and a project on my table I will be happy. I’ve been a member of your group for almost a year now………what joy! Thanks!
I love to make all kinds of sizes of quilts. It seems lately though I’ve been making queen sizes. I also make wall hangings every now and then to change it up from the quilts. I’ve never made a table runner before. I would love to make the blue table runner that you are giving away.
I mainly do bed quilts, with a bunch of crib quilts thrown in.
I have a love and it’s call fabric!!!!
Love the giveaway! I make big ,small , purses, totes if I have sew it I make it!
Thank you! I enjoy making baby quilts & donate to whoever needs them. My last 2 projects were table runners & now I am yearning to make a wall hanging. Happy Quilting & good luck everyone!
I make whatever strikes my fancy at the time. Most turn into throw and bed quilts. Can’t seem to stop and only make a wall quilt if I like it. LOL!
All the above, small projects to large.
Everybody is inspiring me!
Thanks!
I just started quilting and so far I have done small projects. I am having the time of my life and I am just now starting a big quilt. Can’t wait to see it finished.
Would love your give away thank you for the opportunity to enter
I love making king size to wall quilts and everything in between. I make clothes for my granddaughter and pretty hairbows. I have sewn since I was 5 and I’m 57 now. Hope to win!! 😊
I make both lap and small quilts. I do make some bed quilts but not as much as the others. If I had a king arm I would do more bigger quilts as my machine just doesn’t perform as well at them…hint hint to my hubs.
I started off making quilts and table runners, then I started making totes and bags, I also do purses. I love cutting and putting fabric back together again..
I love all your projects! I enjoy making all size quilts, many for family and gifts💕 Thank you for your give aways, such fun!
I make baby quilts
Lap and bed quilts 😀
I’ve made all sizes, from queen to lap/baby quilts, table runners and pot holders. It depends on the project and who it is for.
I have done more bed size quilts so far.
I have not made a table runner; that would be fun!
I love quilting in general:-D! Although, I must admit, mostly I make big quilts lately. “Be my Neighbour” pattern is on my “to do” list since last year – perhaps next year will have enough time to make it :-D.
New to quilting, but loving it
I prefer to make wall hangings and landscapes because I can easily machine quilt them myself & get finished quicker. I have made several Queen & King size quilts, as well as many smaller sized ones!
Mostly I have made lap quilts..
I just starting quilting this year. I am addicted! I love making the different patterns but some are a challenge for me. Would love to try this one in my favorite color, blue.
Love the blue and white
Quilting is my stress relief. It is very relaxing and allows me to be creative.
I love making everything.
I love making all sized quilts but I seem to make more bed sized quilts than any other. Love the give-away!
I am def. a beginner ,only made one baby quilt but would love to try with this to make others,but congrats. to whoever ,thank you for the chance !!
I love making whatever Quilt inspires me the most. Lap size seems to get the most though.
I make mostly small projects.
Would love to win. Thanks
I make mostly lap quilts at this time. I’m thinking I’ll start doing smaller projects so I can
Try different things and also do my own quilting. Love you BOMs.
I make primarily baby and bed quilts. 90% of what I make I’ve given away. Just finishing up 2 solstice quilts. Loved the journey.
I tend to make lap quilts for family however lately everyone seems to be having babies! Thx for chance to win this gorgeous prize!
I make bed quilts. The piecing is my favorite part of the process. I actually have about 10 tops that need quilting. Way behind on that step being I hand quilt. Need me a LAQ. I love giveaways
For the last 12 years or so, I have mostly made baby quilts for the co-workers where my husband worked, for Make a Child Smile and Quilts for Kids. Hubby retired so now my focus will be bigger quilts but continuing with the children’s charity quilts.
I seem to be very utilitarian with my quilting…. want to USE them. Most of my quilts are bed size – twin/full. My problem is when ever i give a quilt as a gift – everyone wants to put it up on the wall and not touch it!! LOL One in my life said – “I have waited so very long for a “Keri Quilt”!!! (but i do the smaller stuff too :))
I make whatever comes up next but I’m loving the smaller quilts.
I have been working on special block projects 2- block of the week grandma kitchen and moda Blockheads and then block of the month my neighirhood and monthly block from Craft Warehouse. I have many many UFO as well…. as for gift always… I love them!!!
