All About Strings Blog Hop: Kite Strings
Welcome to: Creatin' in the Sticks' All About Strings Blog Hop! I am one of the people sharing today, and my project is a wall hanging quilt. The kite block pattern is from Hey Let's Make Stuff.com, and is free. Kite Strings is made-up of two foundation-pieced string kite blocks with an aqua blender fabric to represent the sky. The machine quilting is straight line walking foot, with Warm N' Natural© batting. Kite Strings measures 13" X 38". This was so much fun to make! Be sure to visit the Hop to see other people's creations this week.

Happy Quilting Day 2019!
Happy Quilting Day! This is a table topper that I made for my daughter, Amanda, a few years ago. It is called Winter Seeds, and is a free pattern from: The Crafty Quilter. Amanda made this photo of the topper on their dining room table. It is always such a pleasure to sew and quilt for family, isn't it? What have you been working on lately?

NCAA pillow: Ole Miss®
Yes, another pillow and cover. They are so addictive! This one is made of Ole Miss® (my alma mater) block fabric. 'Have had the fabric for some years, and finally got this made. The front has walking foot straight line quilting in the thin white block lines (difficult to see in the photo). The backing is solid navy, and is envelope-style. This pillow and cover measure 18" square. What is best about pillow covers is they can easily be changed when desired. Isn't it great that they do not have to match the couch or bed? Contrasting colors/designs add interest.
