First up my “The Coffee Shop” block.. WITH my favorite Red Quilt coffee mug! Being super easy, and big blocks…. you can repeat this fast and 3 things happen
- You use up fabric.. woohoo!! room for more!
- You can make a whole quilt very very fast.. I have baby quilt to do soon.. this is the block I’m using
- Since it’s squares and rectangles, you can sew like the wind and just have a lot of fun!

Lori M was the first to share ‘The Coffee Shop’ in repeat.
She used several black fabrics and kept the green shade consistent, looks like only 2 or 3 fabrics in that shade including a wonderful border!
Debbie P went for Red, cream and a neat light to complement it with a pinky red.
Then my amazing friend, and master machine quilting teacher, Debbie Brown created a version she calls Chai Tea Latte that showcases her Ribbon Candy quilting!
Debby is an excellent teacher and her three online classes are WELL worth it. You can watch, repeat, fast forward… PLUS all classes are just 19.00 this weekend!!
If you are looking to take your walking foot quilting skills up a few notches.. Jacquie’s book is THE best! I had her on my talk show and she really did a deep exploration of how to create with your walking foot.. AND the book is on discount!

you can do it Anita!
They are all stunning
I am so completely blown away by the three quilts above. I’m still a pretty new quilter and these examples just get me so excited! I teased my husband I was ready to buy a long arm then read on to realize she did that quilting on her regular machine with her walking foot. WOW….practice, practice, practice!
Hola Pat Sloan. Su bloque “Cafetería” queda genial repitiéndolo hasta formar un edredón. Me gusta muchísimo. Si pudiera coser y no siguiera con la pierna y el pie malos lo haría ahora mismo. Gracias. Saludos.
