Todays Video is Delectable Mountain Quilt Pattern!
18" x 18" Delectable Quilt Block Pillow
Fabrics: Corsage, Alison Glass, Andover Fabrics and Steel Kona, Robert Kaufman Fabrics. Thread: Aurifil 1158 Medium Grey

 

You can be the best piecer but learning to quilt can be very difficult. That is why I love straight line quilting with Aurifil 50wt. thread at a 5.0 stitch width. It is very forgiving! Aurifil 1158 Meduim Grey matches Kona Steel perfectly.

Please stop by the Fat Quarter Shop's Jolly Jabber and visit the other blogger's for the Delectable Mountains Quilt

Triangles on a roll

This pattern was the first time I used Triangles on a roll, available at the Fat Quarter Shop. Easy to use inexpensive product!

Each 2 1/2" rectangle makes (4) half square triangles! I ordered the 2" finished size to use with this pattern. The 2" is the finished size (size once sew it into the block)! I hope that explains it.

You can make 800 HSTs with one roll! I love them for making 4 or more perfect hsts. I say that because using the sheet make them perfectly cut for use. It goes really fast and as you can see I made a few extras trying out Triangles On a Roll. They are worth the small cost for perfection.

Thank you for stopping by and please take the time to visit the other blogger's for today! I will be back next week with another Top Ten Video! Lisa

Update This Giveaway is closed! And the winner is ... #105 gpc March 5, 2014 at 12:13 PM I follow your blog! :) Think Ruffles Blog Hop Welcome to "In The Boon Docks" and Day 1 of the "Think Ruffles Blog Hop"! My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles! I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle? There are lots of different kinds and Madam Samm left it open to interpretation. She showed us how to make some and at the time I was thinking; ruffled bloomers, ruffled dresses, ruffled pillows. Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don'
