Quilt-Spiration – Quilt Therapy

Sometimes You’re a Basket Case & Sometimes You’re Not!

Posted on February 21, 2019 by TK HarrisonFebruary 16, 2019

This month’s Quilt Dash game is called “Basket Case” because let’s face it, some days you feel like a basket case, and some days you don’t!

If you aren’t a member of Quilt Dash, you can sign up here. Or click on the button below.

If you are a member, all you have to do is login to your account and click on the link that says “Join the QuiltDash”. You could also click the image above to gain access to your account.

If you participate in the February Quilt Dash, and find the “You Found it Image” on all of the participating quilt shops and quilt related websites, this is the free downloadable pattern you will earn:

Now tell me, who wouldn’t want THAT beautiful free pattern in their quilt book? The blocks are 15″ finished and 15 1/2″ unfinished. The finished quilt is 60″ square. It’s the perfect quilt to wrap around your shoulders when you’re a basket case and when you’re not!

Again, whether you’re a member or not, click on the button above, then take it from there! Hope to see you participate in this month’s “Basket Case” Quilt Dash!

You’re Just in Time to Participate in the September Quilt Dash!

Posted on September 20, 2018 by TK HarrisonOctober 14, 2018

Quilt Dash brings quilters to quilt shops, websites and blogs. I participate as both a quilt shop as well as a Quilt Dash member, so I can have the same fun as the rest of the Quilt Dash Members have, searching through sites to find a hidden image and when I find all of them, I receive a free quilt pattern!

I am also included in the drawing for a free coupon which could be for a dollar or percentage off of quilt fabrics or products. Another prize could be a choice of a free pattern. Now why in the world would you not want to participate in something that is so much fun, with a free quilt pattern and perhaps a prize, too?

I absolutely love Log Cabin quilts! I love them so much, I made a Log Cabin quilt for my husband and I when we married. And 26+ years later, it’s still in great shape!

I also designed and made two log cabin quilts at my sister-site, BOMquilts.com. And to this day, I still have people who email me and thank me for these two patterns:

Baby Girl & Baby Boy Loves Poetry

Here’s the pattern you could win if you complete the September “Log Cabin Love” Quilt Dash:

My Free BOM Quilt Pattern, “Botanical Beauty” Meets a Quilt Guild in Canada

Posted on August 2, 2018 by TK HarrisonAugust 2, 2018

My sister site, BOMquilts.com, has been in existence since 2006. The same time that this blog has been online. In all those years, I’ve had numerous quilt guilds, quilt groups and individuals ask me for permission to use my patterns. I always agree, giving them two conditions:

You must give out my URL to each member who is participating in the project. If that isn’t feasible (usually because the members aren’t computer literate), when you print and/or copy my pattern, my website URL and copyright remain intact on the paperwork you hand out to those who are making my patterns.
Send me a photograph (either a physical one or one attached to an email) of the finished products, with permission to post them here on my blog and/or on my BOMquilts.com’s website.

And in the past 12 years, NOT. ONE. SINGLE. quilt group or guild has sent me a photograph. Not one!

That is until a couple of months ago. There is a quilt guild in Canada who’s using one of my patterns, with the same conditions and permissions I’ve sent to numerous people throughout the past 12 years, as a mystery quilt. I do not want to name which pattern as, gee, it’s a mystery! I was flabbergasted when I received a photograph of the first set of blocks that they made! Speechless! I will show you the blocks after they’ve made three, so in two more months.

The other pattern by a group of quilters in Canada used “Botanical Beauty,” my 2016 block of the month quilt located at BOMquilts.com.

The quilt tops shown below were all made by the Haldimand Quilter’s Guild at Hagersville, Ontario, Canada

(ED: Don’t mind the wrinkles, it’s just the way the quilt tops were held when they were photographed.)
