Hi Ladies. Here’s my quilt which earned me 3rd place ribbon at the Vermont Quilt Festival. Enjoy

Hi...I recently took the Duffle Bag class with Valerie.
Would you be so kind and let Valerie know that I entered the bag in the Navan Fair Homecraft competition (Men only category) and it won First place!
Thank you, Valerie.


Traci and Toni 2019
Hello QP Ladies. Wanted to share our second project using the quick curve mini ruler. Toni and I really enjoyed the class and we’re having fun using the ruler!!! Thank you, Toni and Traci

Good afternoon ladies of QP. Just wanted to show you our finished projects and what life is like on a Toni/Traci quilt retreat!!! 😝 Enjoy your week ladies!!
Please share with Tamara and Val



Ta-da!
OMG I learned SO MUCH!!! I'm looking forward to quilting my creation.
Now I'm going to practice what I learned so that I'll be comfortable when I take the Quilting 2 class.
Please pass along to Valerie: I discovered that the corners line up so much better when the seams are nested

Hi Valerie,

Isolation sewing 😊
These pieces have been done since the Pandemic has been called. Lots of UFOs are being completed!!.
The 2 large quilt tops are for Victoria Quilts. I'll quilt them once I have backing and batting. The head bands are for my grand-daughters for their Easter basket. The alphabet one is for CHEO.
All's good. Nice to purge my stash. All the more room to stock up once things return to normal. Happy quilting!! 😷 Kathryn

Good morning QP.
I wanted to share my thanks to Tamara for helping pick out the various grunge fabrics for the challenge quilt exercise with the Common Thread Quilt Guild. This was my first foray into foundation paper piecing and I had no clue as to what and how much fabric to purchase. Tamara took me to the basement and we choose almost all of the grunge fabric found. It was a perfect amount. This will be a Queen size quilt.
Thank you Tamara and Quilty Pleasures for making all aspects of quilting a pleasurable experience.

The fabric suggestions that you made are super! They look gorgeous in our green and grey living room. Many thanks. Kristy
I’ve used a number of techniques: paper piecing (very detailed!), crazy quilt (The Grinch) and regular piecing. Enjoy!
I’m very proud of them, so no problem if you wish to include them in show and tell. Take care.

A while ago you gave me these fat quarters. Danie and I each did a quilt, the same but oh so different. The ‘orange peel’ has been laser cut and machine appliquéd.
Thank you on behalf of Victoria’s Quilts, and thank you from Danie and me. We did these remotely but together and we are both happy with the results.
Stay safe

Hi Amy, Here’s a picture of the Arctic Adventure quilt I made into a weighted blanket for my daughter Stephanie. The top was fun to make and I like the fireside fabric for the back. Even with the pellets, the blanket is cozy.
I poured the beads, between the batting and the fireside fabric, down each channel using a funnel then pushed them down with a yard stick, pined tightly across with the beads on one side, sewed across on my marked lines. Then repeated the process. It took a while and I did spill some beads and broke two needles. LOL It helped that I set up my sewing machine on the big table next to the beads filling station so that I did not have to carry the blanket to the machine.

I have started working on a second tree! Soon I will have mastered appliqué! Judy

I hope you are well and keeping safe.
Here is my latest ´Covid’ quilt. It features a number of techniques: piecing, paper piecing, embroidery and appliqué. I really enjoyed making it for my grandson! I’m happy to report he is thrilled! I would appreciate it if you would post it in your gallery. Thank you.
