Hello Tartan! This month’s #bespokeblock for the #pmqg2018bom is inspired by the one and only Cher from Clueless and traditional tartans, of course! Check out my first attempt at sewing this yesterday (the second pic) - let’s just say I burned a bit of midnight oil fixing it. Sew this one in rows, not columns for the best results. I can’t wait to see what you make! #bespokebom #plaidpiecing #plaidquilt

Bevor der vierte Block des #pmqg2018bom #botm #quiltalong in den nächsten Tagen veröffentlich wird, musste ich dringend den Block 1 #buffaloplaid noch mal machen. Im Nachhinein war die Farbwahl bei meiner ersten Version doch eher unglücklich egal, dann wird daraus jetzt eben ein Kissen. Diese Variante gefällt mir viel besser. Ich bin schon so gespannt, wie‘s weitergeht!! @stitchwellandprosper, I am ready for block 4

Louie likes the new #plaidquilt too. #greycat #pinkquilt

Finally made myself a quilt. Plaid quilt made with plaid shirts. Bringing a little “cabin” home. #quilt #plaidquilt #textiles #fiberart #studiodaily #modernquilt

This quilt was fun to make from upcycled shirts. Handquilting and polyester batting makes it soft and puffy! If you, or someone you know, needs a twin size quilt, check out photos and info on my Etsy site.

Gestern hat @stitchwellandprosper den nächsten #westernplaid Block des #pmqg2018bom #quiltalong veröffentlicht. Ich bin ja eher der ungeduldige Typ und konnte es kaum erwarten (vielleicht sind „Block of the Month“ Projekte nix für mich ) Nach langem Überlegen und Ausprobieren haben wir gedacht, dass das die perfekte Gelegenheit ist, einen der neuen #ombreconfetti Stoffe von #vandco einzubauen. Die sind einfach so toll und eignen sich mit dem Farbverlauf natürlich perfekt für dieses Karo-Muster! Wie bei den letzten beiden Blöcken auch, habe ich die Motivgröße halbiert - muss ja alles von den Proportionen her passen
Mir gefallen die Muster von @stitchwellandprosper einfach so gut!

Sorry about the quality of the photo, but was put on his bed late at night.#plaidquilt

Favorite color? That’s a no brainer. Call it mint, teal, tiffany; doesn’t matter. It’s still the color of like half the things I own! #igquiltfestday11

#igquiltfest day 7 and 8 are the same for me. Stacks are what’s on my cutting mat!! It seems like endless stacks of 5” squares I’ve been cutting first from shirtings, and then from plaid flannels. Both for scrappy plus quilts. The shirtings will be for me. No sooner had I built that stack and my 19 year old son chose a plus quilt as his choice for a quilt to take with him to university this fall! Great minds and all that... maybe they’ll make it to the design wall tomorrow. . And then, of course, there’s the baby tumblers and the not quite shirtings. .

Quilt block in progress using upcycled men's shirts, silk tie scraps, and shirt buttons. Listening to Carmen McRae. #upcycledclothing #upcycled #upcycledquilt #plaidquilt #carmenmcrae

I think this is how I’ll do the corners...

Das zweite Muster des @portlandmqg Block of the Month wurde vor ein paar Tagen veröffentlicht, der „Herringbone Twill Block“ (awesome block,@stitchwellandprosper!) und ich hatte natürlich nichts besseres zu tun (ähem!), als meine Version zu nähen. Ich hab die Streifen allerdings etwas schmaler gemacht, damit die Stufen ein bißchen weniger „pixelig“ sind. Die Stoffe sind aus den Moda-Kollektionen #olivesflowermarket und #modernbackgroundsluster. Ich find‘s gerade echt doof, dass ich einen Monat warten muß, bis es weitergeht :-(

Didn’t love my attempt at paisleys so after a bit of echoing to separate I’m doing some simple swirls #quilting #freemotionquilting #plaidquilt

What feels like an eternity later, this quilt top is done! It started up quickly but then life happened—as in sick kids, kid projects due, kids kids and more kids—so obviously this quilt top took the back burner for a couple weeks. I’ll post a full view photo soon! But here’s a little sneak peek I’m working on perfecting this pattern which will be up for sale this spring

Shirts cut for the memory quilt I’m making. I’ll be creating log cabin blocks so I’ll need to further cut this pile into 2.5” strips. I’ve said this before but one of my favorite parts of quilting is bouncing around from project to project. I have a quilt ready to bind, several in the piecing phase, and this one that’s just beginning. Given how emotional this make is going to be, it will be nice to set it aside and pick it up when I’m in the mood. #MJLmemoryquilt #localcolorquilts #memoryquilt #plaidquilt

I decided to take some time away from mittens this week to work on a personal project - I love how these beautiful super soft plaid flannels are coming together to make a cozy warm quilt for someone special #northernsmittens #cozyflannel #plaidquilt #takingabreak

Plaid manquilt hand quilting 'bout half done. Blue stitching shows on reverse.
Enjoy your Saturday!

Fun customer quilt heading to California #abquiltingstudio #longarmquilter #longarmquilter#plaidquilt

I finished this quilt top LAST March, but when I didn’t get it quilted before St. Patrick’s Day, I put it on the back burner (it was in plenty of good company there). So, this weekend I quilted it with straight-ish lines, attached the binding, and it’s my second finish for the year! I LOVE the backing print I found at my local quilt shop, @olivejuicequilts...so much so that I also used it for the binding . And now I feel suuper prepared for St. Patrick’s Day 2018!! The pattern is called 9-patch Buffalo Plaid and is a free pattern by my sweet friend Jessica @sawitloveditmadeit. It’s such a fun twist on the buffalo check pattern.

Catching up on some quilting. Working with plaids. #plaid #flannel #buffaloplaid #plaidquilt

Doing some up cycling using my son’s shirts. Sorry - not sorry Goodwill!!!! #upcycling #plaidquilt #shirtingquilt #repurposing #quilt #quilting

It's wonky thanks to quilting distorting it, and my quilt lines are super "organic" since I haven't ordered a walking foot for this new machine yet, but I love it. #patchwork #ginghamquilt #plaidquilt #pillowcovers #quiltedpillow

And this is what it's all about! Fresh out of the dry, all crinkled and ready to snuggle in! This #PacificNorthwestPlaidquilt pattern will be available Tuesday Dec. 19th!!! Yay!!
This is a super quick and easy pattern. It would make a great weekend project. The pattern comes with directions for a baby, throw and queen size!! #plaid #plaidquilt #easyquilt #beginnerquilting #modernquilt #modernhome #quilt

A giant half yard bundle of mammoth flannel landed on my doorstep today! Help me out—what is your favorite block for big prints?! #quiltersofinstagram #mammothflannel #plaidquilt

This lap quilt was a pretty quick project to sew up. The #buffaloplaid pattern was made easy by following the instructions I found on the blog of @emptybobbin. The trickiest part was finding the right three fabrics to blend together perfectly. Each square measures 3". #neutrals #lapquilt #buffaloplaidquilt #plaidquilt #quiltsofinstagram #quilt

These wool blend , over-sized, vintage quilt pieces are available and ready to ship! They’re listed in the Woodsy Wonders shop. #woodsywonders #woodsywondersprops #shopsmallbusiness #wool #plaidquilt #winterquilt #layeringpiece #lovequilts #quiltvendor #quiltlove #readytoship

Grandma and Grandpa are giving my kids handmade tied blankets for Christmas. I am helping my mom tie them. This is the 4th and we only have one more to tie for my family.

Kiddo has a cold, so I felt like I should let him choose a show to watch, even if it was this grating animals-in-diapers stuff. But! Kiddo is snuggly, there’s #handquilting, and a wolf pup keeping my feet warm. #90scolors #oldshirtsandsheetsquilt #improvquilt #improvquilting #bigstitchquilting #makedoquilt #workingmystashoff #dogsofinstagram #dogsonquilts #quiltwolf #grayquilt #grayandplaid #grayandplaidquilt #gray #plaid #plaidquilt

Wanted to get this in the grey scales..something I'm working on The Universe in Plaid. Silks and home dec fabrics! #plaidquilt

New boy quilt is getting closer to the sew the squares together stage. I have 4 orders ahead of this one. I'm not sure about the navy chevron squares. Bought new fabric at #joannfabrics today since I ran out of the main fabric.

My friend's little boy is loving his quilt all the way in Switzerland! #handmadequilt #quiltlove #babyquilt #plaidquilt

I think this one is a keeper . Originally I was going to list it in my etsy shop but it's the softest warmest quilt ever. And it will look great for the holidays. I have just fallen in love with it.

For #ufosaturdays this week I'm remaking some HSTs for this one! I originally threw in a dark gray and a medium gray in with the taupes to add some interest and break up the pattern a bit but I'm finding them just too distracting. Last week when I worked on this I got all the string blocks done and got it all laid out! It took over two hours to get it all out on batting with all the HSTs pointing the correct direction.

New baby quilt I’m working on....almost time for binding! .....

I finished this lovely little baby quilt a couple days ago. It is now washed and drying on my clothesline. It is going to be traveling some distance to a friend of mine's baby boy #babyquilt #handmadequilt #plaidquilt #scrappylogcabin #scrappylogcabinquilt

Love this sweet Plaid quilt! Maker: @em.nelson24
Pattern: From @jenny.lasslett and @lovequiltingmag also Inspired by @makervalley #buffaloplaidquilt
Fabric: #lesfleursfabric @riflepaperco for @cottonandsteel
Quilting: Soft and Sweet #knotandthreadquilting

480 3" HSTs cut and ready to chain piece! I cut these out in just one short evening with a @sizzix_quilting HST die. Quilt is destined to be @quiltville_bonnie's "Wild Child" from her book String Fling. I was not sad last week when I discovered that I had to go to Goodwill outlet and pick up some more red plaid shirts.

Made from scraps I had at the cottage. A small baby quilt.#babyquilt #cotton #textiles#scrapquilt #plaidquilt
