Striped Independence

Quilt Therapy Posted on by

I have to say, this is the absolute best quilted piece I’ve created.  With my Sew N’Slashâ„¢ method of piecing each block, not only do they come together quickly – the points are near-perfect!  And to have it published in the April 2015 issue of The Quilt Pattern Magazine makes this even more special.  I think it’s a keeper!

“Garden Veggies” Table Topper Featured in the August Issue of “The Quilt Pattern Magazine”

If you’re not already a subscriber, make it a point to subscribe to The Quilt Pattern Magazine as one of my original designs is featured in the August 2015 issue – a table topper titled “Garden Veggies”!

I had my “Garden Veggies” table topper sitting on our coffee table one day.  Our second-born daughter looked at it and said she really liked it.  She asked me what the name of it was…I told her “Garden Veggies”.  She studied it for a minute and then let out a laugh.  She said, “Okay, Mom, this fabric is a perfect representation of our garden!  This fabric (center w/dots) are those exploding tomato plants Dad planted, that grew over six feet tall.  And this yellow is the crook-neck squash, the green is the zucchinis and the brownish/orange-ish fabric is the sweet potatoes.”

Can you see what she sees?

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

Quilt Therapy Posted on by

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”:
