a patchwork quilt is shown with many different colors and patterns on the fabric, including white

I promised I would show you what I made with the leftovers from my Bow Tie Quilt... Well, I actually made TWO quilts. But today I am sharing just one of them (don't worry I'll share the second one soon). The first quilt from the leftovers was a scrappy 9-Patch and Snowball quilt!

This is a great…

a quilt made with many different colors and shapes

Last year I began cutting a few project remnants into 2.25 inch squares. But by the time there were enough I was in a machine quilting funk. My sketchbook was boring; I couldn't quilt designs I'd previously mastered. I wallowed in this misery for a week. Boring, tiring and non-productive.

a patchwork quilt with white squares and colorful flowers on it's edges, as well as the center piece

This will be my sample quilt for a new kit -- a simple Snowball pattern in authentic 1930s fabrics. Well -- the 2 plain square blocks are certainly simple, but maybe not the 164 tiny hand cut triangles. Anyway, I do like this pattern, and it adapts easily to other types of fabrics. Right now
