It is time for another swap in my NOCCCD Classes in Cypress, Fullerton, Buena Park, Anaheim and Yorba Linda, CA. This time we are swapping Red Orange and Yellow Orange 8″ squares. And we are making this very cute 48 Carats quilt.
I did a post on Saturday about some gift items. That post was popular so I thought I would add some more items to that list.
I’ve been thinking about this design for a long time. This represents that moment on a windy day when the geese lose their formation and their lines get all wobbly.
Our friend Ray has found another gem! Made circa 1890-1910, this 16 patch has held up well. Just look at it…
Here is our August Doll Quilt… The Log Cabin! This is an easy quilt if you stay organized. I am a firm believer in pre-cutting all your strips. It will keep the block accurate. Cut your strips, stack them by size and value then start stitching!
We are just about to break for Summer in my classes for the North Orange County Community College District. But before we do, class members have expressed a desire to swap not just fabric squares, but entire blocks, next fall. And so The Iris Swap begins…
I love living (and teaching!) in Orange County, Ca. A while back, we did the Baltimore Comes To California quilt (available in my Pattern Shop) that was a true homage to our beautiful area and the great Golden State. Now, I’m at it again with this Orange County Oranges quilt.
This is just a fast and fun little pattern for charm (5″) squares. I was cutting some Hawaiian fabric and started thinking about the old Gidget movies… And that rickety beach shack. It represented those long, lazy days of summer… And so I was inspired…
WOW! This quilt was made by Sue in the Friday class from the green swap we did in March. The pattern is called Nuclei and this version is fabulous. Look at the border fabric and how it has many shades of green. It is the perfect border for a swap quilt with lots of green […]
Yellow can be a difficult color to work with. It can take over the whole design but this quilt incorporates lots of yellow and is going to really shine!
