Layered Cake Custard Quilt Along

Hello! It's been a while since I've been able to post on here. It's been busier than usual, but a good busy. Today I am sharing this beautiful quilt called Layered Cake Custard form the Fat Quarter Shop. This pattern is a part of Fat Quarter Shop's Shortcut Quilt series. This was super easy and quick to put together.

La Conner Tote

You know those charm packs that you keep hoarding? Well, it's time to break them out and use them. Today I am sharing my bag that I made using the La Conner Tote pattern from Jeri Brandvig. You can find the free tutorial on YouTube. The pattern calls for 4" squares, but I just didn't want to cut down all the charm squares plus I need a new beach bag.

Fat Quarter Snowballs Quilt

Happy Friday! Today I am participating in Fat Quarter Shop's Snowballs quilt hop. This is a part of Fat Quarter Shop's shortcut quilt series. 

Quilt Along Blocks

I'm plugging away at my scrappy quilt for a new quilt along. Way back when I started my quilting journey this block was called the square in a square block, now pretty much everyone knows it as the economy block. Some names just catch on and stays that way..lol. Can't with to be able to share the finished quilt with you!

Quilt Along Snowball Blocks

I am participating in a quilt along coming up this month. Here's a peek at some of my blocks. I love snowball blocks. They're super quick and easy to make. You can't go wrong. I chose a fabrics from a few different Art Gallery Fabrics fat quarter bundles. These are from the Fusions bundles. I love the vibrant colors and beautiful prints. I'll be sharing another peek before the final reveal.

Fresh Quilt Block

I made one block a couple of years ago and meant to make more but time just slipped away and other projects got in the way. I saved my Sweetwater fabrics to make more of the blocks so I can turn them into a large quilt.

Year of Scrappy Triangles

Happy Tuesday! I have been having so much fun using my scraps. Sewn by Leila created twenty paper-pieced blocks and I have been saving to use some of my scraps. These blocks are so quick and easy to piece. I did cut the fabrics a little bit larger than what the pattern calls for.

Year of Scrappy Triangles

I have been saving all of the scrappy triangle patterns from Sewn by Leila so I can work on them in between work obligated sewing and school. I have been trying my best to use my scraps just to hopefully whittle them down and hopefully use them up, but as always they keep on growing. These scrappy triangles have smaller pieces which is great for scraps.

Sewing Olympics Finish

I am sew happy I was able to use up some fabrics in my stash for Benartex's Sewing Olympics. These prints are from their retired collection called The Garden Party. Each day for 5 days there was a new block to work on. 

Sewing Olympics

Happy Monday! When Shelly Denton came out with her new line of fabric called The Garden Club for Benartex Fabrics, I bought a small amount of yardage thinking I was going to make a bag out of those prints. I kept it in a ziplock bag forever.

Hometown Mini Quilt

Happy Monday! I decided to join in this month's Minis and More Parade with Sherri and Michelle. This month's pattern is from A Quilting Life called Hometown. I love making star blocks and this was really quick to put together.

Double Nine Patch Quilt WIP

Just popping in to share a WIP double nine patch quilt that I've been plugging away at. This is one of my favorite color combinations. This is a large queen size quilt so I had to tackle it by doing assembly lining sewing step-by-step in order to get it done.

New Project Sneak Peeks

 Happy Monday! I hope you've all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We stayed home and enjoyed a quiet Thanksgiving with our children. In the meantime, if you've been following me on Instagram (@lilypatchquilts) you have seen peeks of my projects. I have two that I am working on. One is this double nine patch quilt.

Jolly Braid Tote Bag

Happy Friday the 13th! I am excited to bring you another fun Fat Quarter Shop quilt along and this time it's a Jolly Braid Tote Bag. I've never done a braid quilt before so this was something new that I was wanting to try. 

Cobblestone Quilt Blog Hop

Hello and Happy Friday! Today I am sharing the Fat Quarter Shop's Cobblestone quilt. This quilt has been my secret project for a while. I only shared little peaks of it here and on Instagram. This is a part of Fat Quarter Shop's Shortcut quilt series. I love that the pattern is so fast to cut and put together.

Quilt Along Sneak Peek

I have been sharing sneak peeks on Instagram of my quilt along project I've been working on. I love all different types of fabrics but I have a weakness for 30's reproduction prints. Perhaps it was because I used these types of prints for my first quilt or maybe it was just that the colors and designs are pleasing to my eyes. 

Pumpkins Quilt

It's been a long time since I've made a Fall quilt. When I saw the Pumpkins quilt pattern from Cluck Cluck Sew being used for August's Minis and More parade I couldn't resist. Who doesn't love pumpkins? This also gave me a chance to use up more fabric that's been sitting in my stash forever.

Roundabout Quilt-Along

I am such a busy person at the moment but let's see if I can squeeze this Roundabout quilt-along in. I've got four projects going all at once so cross my fingers and hope this one will get done way before the night before like I did with Melissa's last quilt along.

Pumpkins

I am almost done with my Santa's Trip Around the World quilt so while I load the quilt onto my HQ16 I am going to start working on my pumpkin quilt for the Minis and More quilt along. I know I am working backwards making a Fall quilt after Christmas but it is what it is ;-D

Santa's Trip Around the World Progress

Happy Friday! Thank goodness the weekend is here. I've been taking whatever time I can in between class assignments to work on my Santa's Trip Around the World quilt. I am determined to use up as much of these Christmas fabrics as  I can.
