Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday!
After several weeks working to finish this year's quilt along pattern, I'm so excited to finally be sharing it with all of you!
This new pattern is called Blackwork Roads! The design of the pattern was inspired by modern blackwork embroidery, but uses traditional quiltwork methods!
September is the first month of this quilt along project, and includes both fabric selection and piecing instructions for the first chunk of the quilt!
Instructions for both of these can be found on the Fibre Arts blog!

Scarcity
This approximately 36″ x 36″ quilt was created for the Brooklyn Quilters Guild Earth Day fence quilt show. I used improv piecing to create a feeling of water gradually disappearing into nothingness. I then used free-motion quilting to outline the word “water” which is only slightly visible, symbolizing how this essential resource is disappearing around the world due to climate change and…

I finished piecing the quilt top for the baby blanket I'm making for a coworker. It's about 46x55 inches right now.

My first quilt is done :) I've never sewn anything before (besides some VERY basic hand-stitching when i was a little kid) so this was a major learning experience lol
I used 5x9" rectangles and made a little checkered pattern. I wasn't following any specific pattern or tutorial, and was more just winging every part of it (and it shows). BUT!! I still think it's cute and cozy and I'm excited about it :)
Progress pics and mistakes under the cut !
This quilt was certainly a process, and being, as i am, extremely lazy, every step I took lacked the precision required to make the quilt all nice. And in all honesty i am 100% okay with that, I don't need it to be anywhere near perfect!
Tumblr media
Here are all of my pieces laid out on the floor after i cut them out! I didnt take any pics between that and the top-stitching (no clue if that's what it's called, but where it's all basted and then you sew the patterns that go along the quilt) so we'll skip to then

I managed to sew over my excess fabric AND create insane bunching, both because i wasn't paying any attention to the back of my quilt and was really really lazy with my basting (and this is where i made the seam ripper gif lmao)
Tumblr media
I also learned why people buy long-arm machines and shit because oh my godddd this was a pain
Tumblr media
Anyway next i cut out my binding strips and checked to see that i had enough, which thankfully i did lmao
Tumblr media
My binding is pretty awful, i did it the wrong way and elected not to redo it, and my corners are quite messy, but i really truly just don't care. It's still a very cozy quilt
And then it was done! That's all!!
The process from start to finish took me about two days (started cutting pieces Wednesday night, began sewing Thursday morning, continued sewing until it was all done on Friday evening!)
I got the fabric largely from my friend, who has oh so much of it. I think my choices are pretty dang cute :)
Okay. I think that's all I have to say! Bye now!

Behold My Beauty and Weep
This 36″ x 36″ quilt was made for the 2024 Brooklyn Quilters Guild fence show, which is entitled THE STORIES WE TELL: Folktales, Fantasy & Folly. I knew I wanted to do something similar to my O, Beware… quilt with some kind of creature staring out through scales or feathers, etc. While looking for images of feathered dragons, I became intrigued with illustrations of Quetzalcoatl from Mesoamerican…
