February 25, 2011 Hi all! If you're like me, you love seeing other people's finished projects almost as much as your own! Of course, it always makes me a little green, but hey, green is my favorite color! LOL Ruth just finished an awesome quilt that is an excellent way to feature a collection of fat quarters, or just use up a bunch of your stash. http://www.sewnatural.net/nli.asp?iid=26645
She used a "hinge & flip" technique of "quilt as you go". This technique uses finishing strips to cover the seams that join the individually quilted blocks. As well as this pattern, we carry several books that have complete step-by-step instructions for a variety of QUILT-AS-YOU-GO techniques.

Check out Marti's videos on-line here: http://www.frommarti.com/vid_MQIS_intro.shtml
Another fun book, CRAZY QUILT SHORTCUTS, also uses the finishing strips technique to join blocks that are already fully quilted. Check out the book here: http://www.sewnatural.net/nli.asp?iid=26647 Check out the authors' video here:

A lot of you liked Mary's version of Marti Michell's GOOD NEIGHBORS pattern, this month's Marti's Club feature. Mary, an avid gardener, created a darling quilt of BRIGHT BIRDHOUSES! She got it finished with some "light quilting" and it is ready to hang! See details on the QUILT KIT here: http://www.sewnatural.net/nli.asp?iid=26455
Here comes MARCH! Will it enter as a LION or a LAMB? The past 2 days have been pretty "LION", so who knows?! St. Patrick's Day is celebrated March 17. Even if you're not a bit IRISH, this little quilt will put a smile on your face and in your EYES!
Very
popular! We've cut all we can cut now, and when these last few
are gone, they're gone!
The instructions are included in the kit featuring gorgeous Hoffman fabrics. Celebrating SPRING and St. Patrick's Day, this little quilt fits perfectly on the wire TABLE STANDS, or lays flat on a table or can be pinned to the wall. Or slip a pillow in and cheer up a chair!
