Miss Scarlet All In A Row

I know I didn't get great pictures of the Miss Scarlet quilts yet.  We didn't have a whole lot of room to hang them in Houston and only a couple got highlighted.  I managed to get these tonight before the sunset. (Daylight savings time kind of sneaks up on you).  Without further ado...


This is Glad Tidings.  We think she's perfect for a holiday wall hanging or table cloth.  Glad Tidings measures 52" square.

Next to her is Polly's Stars and Stripes.  This is our adaption of an antique crib quilt.  It is made with 1 Jelly Roll™, 1 Charm Pack™, and 2 fat quarters.  How nifty is that?  Polly's Stars and Stripes is 37" square.

Fitzgerald is my attempt at an antique reproduction.  We all might not be able to purchase an antique red and white quilt, but we can make a reproduction of one. All that white space is ideal for some fancy quilting. Fitzgerald measures 72 1/2" x 87" perfect for a twin or full size bed.  Last, but not least is Patty's Posies.  She has been shown before.  We love her and I think you will too.  The half square triangles measure 1 1/2" and are a breeze with Spinning Star piecing papers.  The appliqué is all circles, leaves, and a vine.  It went together much faster than we anticipated.

Look what the UPS guy brought today! The Bella Solid Moda Match Maker.  This tool has all the Bella Solids in an easy to use format.  Each swatch pulls out to let you match with other Bella Solids or your own fabrics.  On the back of each swatch is all the info you need to find the Bella in quilt shops.  You really won't know how you lived without it.
We have a few of them in our Etsy store.

Laters,

Laurie

Even tho I've seen Patsy's Posies first hand, I'm even more excited to get that pattern! She's my fave ...

I am in awe of Patty's Posies. I thought there was no way the middle section was possible for me to make. But now that I know it is made of half square triangles and they are a "breeze" with papers.... And how I love Miss Scarlet! ❤️
