Autumn #12 By Linda H.

This is what Linda said about her quilt, "I'm calling this Autumn No. 12. Pretty sure that I have made at least 11 other quilts or even table runners withe the fall colours before this. Some are not yet quilted but I will work on finishing my unfinished objects! 😳" Linda didn't have enough fabric for the backing, so she enlarged it by adding a row of Maple Leaf blocks. I think it looks fantastic!

The Start Of A New Quilt

We are at our summer cabin in the Yukon. Each year, I work on a quilt top, this time I'm making a scrappy one. There isn't a fabric stash here, so I brought a couple of big bags of cut 2 1/2" X 4 1/2" pieces. This is what I've done so far. I better not sew too fast or I'll have the quilt top done before the summer is over and I'll have nothing else to do.

Bob And Weave By Linda H.

This is what Linda said about her " Bob and Weave" quilt, "The pattern was from the book Strip Your Stash by Gudrun Erla." I really like this quilt, the pattern is interesting. It looks like it would be fun to make. :)

This One Doesn't Have A Name

I saw a picture of a quilt similar to this and decided to make one like it. There is no pattern, just a random size triangle sewn on to the bottom corner of each square. I raided my bin of five inch squares that I've been cutting for the past 25 years for the light colours. There wasn't enough of the light blue fabric for the back, so I added a strip of something else on one side.

Rail Fence By Linda H.

Linda recently finished this lovely quilt. This is what she said about it, "This is the Rail Fence quilt made of red, pink, orange and yellow scraps. The pattern came from "No Scrap Left Behind" by Amanda Jean Nyberg. It was called Scrap Happy Rails. The colours are actually brighter than the photo would indicate." Rail Fence is one of my favourite quilt designs. Linda did a great job!

Stash Buster 2025 Is Quilted And Bound

I belong to a Stash Buster Facebook group. Every year they host a Stash Buster challenge where they pick a block pattern and everyone makes their version of a quilt with it. The deadline is December 31 to have the top completed, mine was done before that. It took some time to quilt, though, because I ruler quilted it with Baptist Fans. The wide backing fabric came from Connecting Threads. I wish I could have an entire bolt of it, I love the newspaper print design.

Chicken Quilt By Linda H.

Linda recently finished this delightful chicken quilt. This is what Linda said about it, "The block is modified from the one in Doodle-Doo By Palmer Bixler in Quilter's World Late Spring 2025. I ran out of fabric for the nests so some chickens are standing. (Richard says they are wearing yellow gumboots)!" Also included is a picture of a funny block with the beak not connected to the body. We all had a chuckle about it, then Linda fixed it. :D
