Oh, Fransson!

QuiltCon Swag Bag Giveaway

I'll eventually have more to say about QuiltCon but, in the meantime, does anyone want to win a fabulous goodie bag from the event?

Modern Patchwork: Fire Drill

This is part of a series of posts about the quilts from Modern Patchwork. I'm highlighting a different quilt each month, and will be remaking each of the book quilts in some way. 

I am a bit behind on my Modern Patchwork project, but I'm picking it back up this month with Fire Drill, which is on Pages 52 - 61.

Honey in Space Quilt

It's been hard not showing photos of the construction of this quilt on my blog! This is my Honey in Space quilt, which I made specifically for the QuiltCon show. It measures about 72" x 72". 

Marmalade Quilts (QuiltCon Giveaway Quilt) pattern is now in the shop!

I'm finally back from Austin and will post about the wonderfulness that was QuiltCon as soon as I get a few hours of sleep! In the meantime, my first order of business is reopening my shop and listing a new pattern.

The Marmalade quilt was designed for and displayed at QuiltCon 2013 and one lucky winner (who we'll announce on the MQG blog shortly) will get to call it their own. The pdf pattern was included on the Pattern Mixtape thumb drive from the QuiltCon goodie bags and is now available available for purchase individually.

Through March 3, take 25% off your purchase of 2 or more patterns by using the discount code MARMALADE at checkout. 

QuiltCon Link Party

If you're wondering why I haven't posted in a while it's because, among other things, I've been getting ready for QuiltCon!

The Modern Quilt Guild is encouraging bloggers who are going to QuiltCon to do a post with a photo of themselves. Hopefully this will make it easier for people to recognize each other at the event.

MQG Madrona Road Challenge

Now that we've had our January PMQG meeting, I can show you photos of the quilt I made for the Madrona Road Challenge!

Modern Patchwork: Winterkist Rapid City Quilt Finished

This is part of a year-long series of posts about the quilts from Modern Patchwork. I'm highlighting a different quilt each month, and will be remaking each of the book quilts in some way. Right now, I'm playing catch-up with this holiday version of the Rapid City quilt (Pages 42 - 51 in Modern Patchwork). My previous posts about this project are here and here.

I feel a little silly posting this one so long after Christmas, but it's one more card off the wall, so here we go!

Finished Winter Quilt

Another finish! This is my Winter quilt, which I originally posted about here.

Octagonal Orbs Quilt is Finished!

Another finished quilt. Another WIP card off the wall! (Yes, I really do have a bunch of index cards on my wall.)

Modern Patchwork: Glam Garlands/Drip Mashup - Finally Finished!

This is part of a year-long series of posts about the quilts from Modern Patchwork. I'm highlighting a different quilt each month, and will be remaking each of the book quilts in some way. Right now, I'm playing catch up with a quilt top and back that I finished some time ago. I used my Glam Garlands pattern, but integrated elements of Alissa Haight-Carlton's Drip Quilt from Modern Minimal. Here are links to my posts about the mashup concept, making the blocks, making the quilt top, and making the quilt back. 

It wasn't by the end of 2012 as I'd hoped, but I did finally finish this quilt and a few of its WIP cousins, which I'll be showing on the blog this week.
