It's Quilt Time @itsquilttime - Tumblr Blog

Nothing like finishing a Halloween quilt on a hot day in June. I saw these panels on clearance in late October (after originally seeing the main panel in this post by @wyrmscraft) and knew I had to make something for my spooky-loving in-law (whose birthday is this month). I have never done a panel quilt before so I was impressed how you could make something this impactful with less than 20 seams. To jazz it up and fit the theme, I decided to do my quilting in a spiderweb pattern and naturally my cat had to “help” with the binding process. I’m pleased with how it came out and I do believe it will get year-round use from the recipient.

'a dot a week' quilt

I started this quilt project in january, and although I've had to take a break from sewing altogether, I really love this little blanket!

Just in time for Moon Day Monday, I finished my quilt!

I learned many things on this one, including:

- nesting your seams is a thing and it really helps with nice aligned corners, who knew??

- inset circles. Now I fear nothing, including God

- how to use the long arm with a pantograph

- the easy way to change thread on the long arm because the inner blocks were too light for the medium grey thread I was using

- how to stress out my grandfather stopping at various points on the pantograph because I wanted to do something different in the moons and finally

- fun things about free motion quilting, so I could put the correct textures of our beautiful lady into the different phases on the blocks.

The pattern is a mish mash of the Moon Portal quilt pattern by The Water Spirit and the Plaid-ish 2 from Erica Jackman of Kitchen Table quilting, plus some cathedral window blocks for the stars in various sizes.
