Friday finish - Fraction quilt



My first finish of 2025! The Fraction Quilt by Lou Orth made from Kona solids from stash on a Ruby star starry background. The binding is a stripe by quietplay. I use Glide in the colour bone for the quilting and a digital pantograph called Fast Feathers.


I think I'll make a start on the Ruby Star anniversary quilt today and cut out the first block of which we have to make twenty.

Happy New Year

 

Our Guild UFO challenge has been picked for January 2025 and it's number 4. I think I will play around with the colours of this block and make a mini quilt for SCBU.

I have also listed some of my sewing UFOs and cross stitch patterns / kits / UFOs and numbered them 1 to 12, so number 4 from those lists are also planned to be worked on this month.


I plan to use these Tula Pink prints to make a booklet pouch (pattern by Aneela Hoey), I just needed the right sized zipper and the rest was already kitted up.


The timing of this project is perfect for Valentine's Day in April. I have already stitched up Ruby and made a start on Ralph.
