Flashback Tuesday: Pioneer Sampler 2009 BOM Project Original from BOMquilts.com

Quilt Therapy Posted on by

This quilt was a blast to make, especially with the fabric I chose for the quilt.  The fabric was sponsored by AbbiMays.com and I just had pure FUN making this baby quilt!

I also cut out all of the fabric for the blocks, along with the monthly patterns and presented them to everyone who wanted one in the small quilt group I attended.  At the end of the first year…and even the second and third year, I saw so many different variations made of the ladies who put that quilt together.  Some added wider sashing and borders to create a lap quilt.  Some didn’t add sashing at all (like in my quilt image below) but made up for the loss by adding bigger border pieces.  We had a small quilt fest at the community library and showed off our quilts and it was amazing how many different quilts were made from the exact same set of blocks that I used.  I was tickled pink!

Flashback Tuesday: Log Cabin Off Kilter an Original Design by TK Harrison

I absolute LOVE <3 Log Cabin quilts.  In fact, I love them so much that my wedding quilt is a Log Cabin quilt.  And I tied the quilt instead of having it quilted.  That plays right into the historical nature of the Log Cabin quilt.  Also following along through the Log Cabin quilt history, I have found this quote from “Quick Views:

“A red center symbolized the hearth of home, and a yellow center represented a welcoming light in the window.” from Log Cabin Quilts – A Short History at QuiltViews.com.

In making my own version/vision of a fun Log Cabin quilt for a dear niece, I enjoyed creating “Log Cabin Off Kilter”:

We just started our month of love and this block design, along with the trio of patterns (shorter table runner, longer table runner & quilt) go together pretty quickly – and best of all?  The pattern is FREE!

Flashback Tuesday: Subtle Skies Table Runner designed by TK Harrison from BOMquilts.com

I set our Christmas dinner table with a table runner I had designed and made a number of years ago (Holly Jolly Funtabulous Star Quick Table Runner from BOMquilts.com) and when it was time to put the Christmas decorations away, I realized how much I really loved the size of that table runner for our table.  So, I declare that for 2015, I will design and showcase at least six new free table runner patterns on BOMquilts.com.

So let’s start January 2015 with a previous table runner I designed so I can work on a new one for February – and this one is also one of the wider ones I’ve designed, too!  This is perfect for non-holiday weeks/months and is so very beginner friendly, with all straight pieces to put together:

Since we will be embarking on a new 2015 block of the month quilt in the coming days, I thought it would be only fitting to flashback on my first block of the month quilt I ever designed from 2006.  This quilt will never go out of style, especially if you love traditional piecing as I do, just substitute a light, medium and dark fabric with your own color choices and enjoy the timeless beauty of piecing this quilt.
